A 6-year-old African boy with a history of a collodion membrane presented with scale in a generalized distribution and flexural accentuation. Large, brown, polygonal scales were present on the forehead, lateral aspects of the face, and extremities. The nature of the scales and the lack of erythroderma in this patient are consistent with a mild form of ...

Novel transglutaminase 1 mutations in patients affected by lamellar ichthyosis [PDF]
Lamellar Ichthyosis (LI) is a form of congenital ichthyosis that is caused by mutations in the TGM1 gene that encodes for the transglutaminase 1 (TG1) enzyme. Functional inactivation of TG1 could be due to mutations, deletion or insertions. In this study,
