Epidermolysis bullosa acquisita.
Autoimmunity to type-WI collagen is characterized by autoantibodies predominantly of lgG class to the non-collagenous domain of type-WI collagen present in the anchoring fibrils which bind basement membrane lamina densa to the anchoring plaques in the dermis. This results in a sublami.na densa split with a blister formation. Type WI collagen autoim.munity is heterogenous in its clinical spectru...
متن کاملEpidermolysis bullosa acquisita: what's new?
Type VII collagen is an adhesion molecule of the extracellular matrix in epithelial basement membranes, and the main constituent of anchoring fibrils at the dermal-epidermal junction (DEJ). Autoimmunity against this protein is causing the rare organ-specific epidermolysis bullosa acquisita (EBA). EBA is a rare acquired, heterogeneous, chronic blistering disease of skin disease of skin and mucou...
متن کاملPretibial dystrophic epidermolysis bullosa*
Epidermolysis bullosa is a group of mechano-bullous genetic disorders caused by mutations in the genes encoding structural proteins of the skin. Dystrophic epidermolysis bullosa is caused by mutations in the COL7A1 gene encoding collagen VII, the main constituent of anchoring fibrils. In this group, there are autosomal dominant and recessive inheritances. The pre-tibial form is characterized by...
متن کاملJunctional and Dystrophic Epidermolysis Bullosa
Epidermolysis bullosa (EB) is a congenital genodermatosis, which affects mainly skin and occasionally other organs [1]. Lifelong blistering and erosion of the skin and mucous membrane, caused by mechanical trauma, threaten EB patients [1]. The most common cause of death is metastasizing squamous cell carcinoma [2]. EB is subdivided into mainly three categories by the location of tissue separati...
متن کاملDystrophic epidermolysis bullosa: a review
Dystrophic epidermolysis bullosa is a rare inherited blistering disorder caused by mutations in the COL7A1 gene encoding type VII collagen. The deficiency and/or dysfunction of type VII collagen leads to subepidermal blistering immediately below the lamina densa, resulting in mucocutaneous fragility and disease complications such as intractable ulcers, extensive scarring, malnutrition, and mali...
