De Sanctis–Cacchione syndrome: A case report and literature review
De Sanctis–Cacchione (DSC) syndrome is one of the rarest, most severe forms of xeroderma pigmentosum (XP). These patients with XP are of short stature, have mental disabilities, and develop progressive neurologic degeneration because of a severe ...

A unified model for the molecular basis of Xeroderma pigmentosum-Cockayne Syndrome [PDF]
Nucleotide Excision Repair (NER) is a pathway that removes lesions distorting the DNA helix. The molecular basis of the rare diseases Xeroderma pigmentosum (XP) and Cockayne Syndrome (CS) are explained based on the defects happening in 2 NER branches ...

Myrid of histopathological features of malignancy in Xeroderma pigmentosum
Background: Xeroderma pigmentosum is a rare autosomal recessively inherited disorder affecting 1 in 2,50,000 population. It shows genetic heterogeneity with at least ten different complementation groups identified which have different clinical ...
