Three Brothers with Recessive Dystrophic Epidermolysis Bullosa
Epidermolysis bullosa (EB) is a group of heritable mechano-bullous skin diseases classified into three major categories on the basis of the level of tissue separation within the dermal-epidermal basement membrane zone. In the most severe, dystrophic (scarring) forms of EB, blisters form below the cutaneous basement membrane at the level of the anchoring fibrils, which are composed of type VII c...
متن کاملSomatic forward (nonrevertant) mosaicism in recessive dystrophic epidermolysis bullosa.
angiofibromas.4 Successful treatment of nonangiofibroma cutaneous manifestations of TSC has been sparse. To our knowledge, topical rapamycin has not been used successfully to treat the ungual fibromas of TSC. In our case, the use of topical rapamycin was well tolerated and resulted in the resolution of subungual tumors and rapid normalization of the overlying nail distortion. The pathogenesis o...
متن کاملRecessive dystrophic epidermolysis bullosa. Evidence for increased collagenase as a genetic characteristic in cell culture
Fibroblast cultures from patients with recessive dystrophic epidermolysis bullosa (RDEB) demonstrated an increased capacity to synthesize and secrete collagenase. This phenotypic trait appeared to distinguish RDEB from other genetically distinct forms of epidermolysis bullosa. The finding of increased collagenase may be a specific manifestation of these cells in that prototypic lysosomal and cy...
متن کاملRecessive dystrophic epidermolysis bullosa results in painful small fibre neuropathy
Small fibres in the skin are vulnerable to damage in metabolic or toxic conditions such as diabetes mellitus or chemotherapy resulting in small fibre neuropathy and associated neuropathic pain. Whether injury to the most distal portion of sensory small fibres due to a primary dermatological disorder can cause neuropathic pain is still unclear. Recessive dystrophic epidermolysis bullosa (RDEB) i...
متن کاملImmunofluorescence antigen mapping for hereditary epidermolysis bullosa.
Epidermolysis bullosa (EB) is a group of inherited, mechanobullous disorders that are caused by mutations in the structural proteins in the epidermis or dermoepidermal junction. Characteristic clinical picture is the presence of blisters at trauma prone areas of the body, which develops at or soon after birth. Availability of specific monoclonal antibodies against the target proteins together w...
