Advances in Pseudoxanthoma Elasticum
Pseudoxanthoma elasticum(PXE) is a rare, genetic, metabolic disease characterized by ectopic calcification of connective tissue that primarily affects the skin, retina and cardiovascular system, which characteristic histopathology is calcification and ...

Therapy of Pseudoxanthoma Elasticum: Current Knowledge and Future Perspectives
Pseudoxanthoma elasticum (PXE) is a rare, genetic, metabolic disease with an estimated prevalence of between 1 per 25,000 and 56,000. Its main hallmarks are characteristic skin lesions, development of choroidal neovascularization, and early-onset ...

Background: Pseudoxanthoma elasticum (PXE) is a rare ectopic calcification genetic disease mainly caused by ABCC6 rare sequence variants. The clinical phenotype is characterized by typical dermatological, ophthalmological and cardiovascular ...

Pseudoxanthoma elasticum (PXE) is a hereditary ectopic calcification disorder affecting the skin, eyes and blood vessels. Recently, the DNA damage response (DDR), in particular poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase 1 (PARP1), was shown to be involved in aberrant ...

The complexity of visual dysfunction in patients with pseudoxanthoma elasticum
Pseudoxanthoma elasticum (PXE) is a multisystem disease characterized by calcification of elastic fibers. The eye is one of the most consistently and most severely affected organs, with vision loss being a major concern for PXE patients [1, 2].

Pseudoxanthoma elasticum [PDF]
Pseudoxanthoma elasticum (PXE) is a rare multisystem disorder characterised by progressive calcification and fragmentation of elastic fibres. Recent genetic advances have identified the underlying defect to the ABCC6 gene on chromosome 16p13.1. Patients typically develop cutaneous, ocular, and cardiovascular manifestations but there is considerable ...

D-Penicillamine Induced Degenerative Dermopathy in a Patient with Wilson Disease
D-penicillamine induced degenerative dermatosis include, among others, elastosis perforans serpiginosa, and pseudo- -pseudoxanthoma elasticum. Elastosis perforans serpiginosa is a rare perforating disease characterized by transepidermal elimination of ...

Pruritic periumbilical plaque as a presentation of a rare perforating dermatosis
Perforating dermatoses are characterized by transepidermal elimination of altered dermal components or foreign particles. Owing to their common clinical presentation as umbilicated papules with a keratotic plug, histopathology and special staining play a
