Dystrophic epidermolysis bullosa is caused by mutations in the COL7A1 gene encoding collagen VII, a protein of the epidermal attachment complex, and typically manifests with trauma-induced skin blistering, scarring, nail dystrophy, and, in some cases, mucosal involvement.
Dystrophic epidermolysis bullosa (DEB) is a family of inherited mechano-bullous disorders caused by mutations in the human type VII collagen gene (COL7A1).
Dystrophic epidermolysis bullosa (DEB) is a family of inherited mechanobullous disorders caused by mutations in the gene, COL7A1, that codes for type VII, (anchoring fibril), collagen, which is critical for epidermal-dermal adherence.
Dystrophic epidermolysis bullosa (DEB) pruriginosa (DEB-Pr) is a rare variant of DEB due to COL7A1 dominant and recessive mutations, which is characterized by severe itching and lichenoid or nodular prurigo-like lesions, mainly involving the extremities.
Dystrophic epidermolysis bullosa (DEB) is a rare hereditary skin disorder caused by mutations in COL7A1, encoding collagen type VII.1 Clinical manifestations of COL7A1 mutations range from generalized skin blistering to mild localized blistering or nail dystrophy.2 The investigation of the molecular basis of DEB has revealed more than 540 different mutations that cannot entirely explain phenotypic variations (HGMD Professional 2010.3, https://portal.biobase-international. com/hgmd/).
Dystrophic Epidermolysis Bullosa (DEB) is a genetic disease caused by mutations in the COL7A1 gene that is inherited in the autosomal dominant or recessive mode.
Dystrophic Epidermolysis Bullosa (DEB) is a rare bullous genodermatosis caused by mutations in COL7A1, which encodes collagen type VII, the main component of anchoring fibrilis.
