Xeroderma Pigmentosum: Clinical and Genetic Features and Therapeutic Approaches

open access: yesВопросы современной педиатрии, 2021
Xeroderma pigmentosum is rare genetic disorder characterized by increased skin sensitivity to damaging ultraviolet (UV) light. First symptoms manifest at early age in most cases (up to 75%).

Structure and mechanism of human DNA polymerase η [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
The variant form of the human syndrome xeroderma pigmentosum (XPV) is caused by a deficiency in DNA polymerase eta (Pol eta), a DNA polymerase that enables replication through ultraviolet-induced pyrimidine dimers.

Whole-Exome Sequencing Enables Rapid Determination of Xeroderma Pigmentosum Molecular Etiology [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Xeroderma pigmentosum (XP) is a rare autosomal recessive disorder haracterized by extreme sensitivity to actinic pigmentation changes in the skin and increased incidence of skin cancer. In some cases, patients are affected by neurological alterations. XP

TGF-β signaling links E-cadherin loss to suppression of nucleotide excision repair. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
E-cadherin is a cell adhesion molecule best known for its function in suppressing tumor progression and metastasis. Here we show that E-cadherin promotes nucleotide excision repair through positively regulating the expression of xeroderma pigmentosum ...

A novel splice variant of the DNA-PKcs gene is associated with clinical and cellular radiosensivity in a patient with xeroderma pigmentosum [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Background: Radiotherapy-induced DNA double-strand breaks (DSBs) are critical cytotoxic lesions. Inherited defects in DNA DSB repair pathways lead to hypersensitivity to ionising radiation, immunodeficiency and increased cancer incidence.

Structural basis of TFIIH activation for nucleotide excision repair. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Nucleotide excision repair (NER) is the major DNA repair pathway that removes UV-induced and bulky DNA lesions. There is currently no structure of NER intermediates, which form around the large multisubunit transcription factor IIH (TFIIH).

Xeroderma pigmentosum and rhabdoid tumor of the kidney: A very rare case report association

open access: yesRadiology Case Reports, 2022
The aim of this observation was to report an exceptional association of xeroderma pigmentosum and rhabdoid renal tumor in a 7-year-old girl, diagnosed with imaging and treated by adjuvant chemotherapy.

A semi-automated non-radiactive system for measuring recovery of RNA synthesis and unscheduled DNA synthesis using ethynyluracil derivatives [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Nucleotide excision repair (NER) removes the major UV-photolesions from cellular DNA. In humans, compromised NER activity is the cause of several photosensitive diseases, one of which is the skin-cancer predisposition disorder, xeroderma pigmentosum (XP).

Xeroderma Pigmentosum A Multidisciplinary Approach [PDF]

open access: yesEuropean Medical Journal Dermatology, 2013
Xeroderma pigmentosum (XP) is a rare, autosomal recessive disorder of DNA repair. Affected individuals are unable to repair ultraviolet radiation (UVR)-induced DNA damage, leading to a variety of clinical manifestations: a dramatic increase in ...

Xeroderma pigmentosum: case report [PDF]

open access: yesRevista Paulista de Pediatria, 2023
Objective: The aim of this study was to describe the disease and treatment and to alert health professionals for the identification of signs and symptoms and the need for an early diagnosis in patients with xeroderma pigmentosum (XP).
