Alitretinoin reduces erythema in inherited ichthyosis
BackgroundAcitretin is the main retinoid used to treat severe inherited ichthyosis. Alternatives may be considered if it results ineffective or there are side-effects, or for women of childbearing age.Our objective is evaluation of the effects and ...

Categories of Cutaneous Mosaicism
ABSTRACT In this overview, the following 12 different categories of cutaneous mosaicism are considered: (1) Discrimination between monoallelic and biallelic mosaicism in autosomal dominant traits; (2) Segmental versus disseminated mosaicism in autosomal dominant disorders.

Progress in the use of adeno-associated viral vectors for gene therapy [PDF]
The development of safe and efficient gene transfer vectors is crucial for the success of gene therapy trials. A viral vector system promising to meet these requirements is based on the apathogenic adeno-associated virus (AAV-2), a member of the ...

A de novo variant in the ASPRV1 gene in a dog with ichthyosis
Ichthyoses are a heterogeneous group of inherited cornification disorders characterized by generalized dry skin, scaling and/or hyperkeratosis. Ichthyosis vulgaris is the most common form of ichthyosis in humans and caused by genetic variants in the FLG ...

Epidermal Nevi and Epidermal Naevus Syndromes
ABSTRACT Epidermal nevi (EN) arise from postzygotic variants in ectoderm‐derived cell lines, such as keratinocytes and cells forming adnexa. EN may be present alone without any associated abnormality or be part of a syndrome. In this review, we will discuss about the clinical and genetics of the main types of EN and related syndromes.

A novel KRT1 c.1433A>G p.(Glu478Gly) mutation in a newborn with epidermolytic ichthyosis
Epidermolytic Ichthyosis is a rare genodermatosis related to point mutations affecting the genes encoding for keratin 1 or keratin 10. We report a case of Epidermolytic Ichthyosis in a newborn with a novel mutation (c.1433A>G) of KRT1 gene.

Clinical Classification of Mosaicism
Mosaic skin abnormalities can present under a segmental pattern or as ¡non‐segmental skin lesions. Non‐segmental mosaicism (Figure 1, a‐c), which is most common, includes individual point lesions, tumors, hamartomatous lesions, or malformations. Segmental mosaicism (Figure 2, a‐f)is less common and presents as asymmetric cutaneous lesions in one or ...

Lamellar Ichthyosis with Rickets
Lamellar ichthyosis (LI) is a rare genetic disorder with autosomal recessive inheritance. It is equally seen in both sexes and usually manifests at birth. The child presents as a collodion baby. The erythema is minimal or absent; but when present, it is maximum on the face. The scaling is generalized, accentuated on lower extremities and flexural areas.

Analysis of biomedical and health queries: Lessons learned from TREC and CLEF evaluation benchmarks [PDF]
International audienceBACKGROUND:Inherited ichthyoses represent a group of rare skin disorders characterized by scaling, hyperkeratosis and inconstant erythema, involving most of the tegument. Epidemiology remains poorly described.
