Research Abstract |
Dominant dystrophic epidermolysis bullosa (DDEB) is a clinically heterogeneous disorder characterized by blistering and scarring of the skin and mucous membranes in response to mechanical force. The DDEB phenotype arises because of a dominant negative effect of mutations in type VII collagen gene, resulting in the formation of structurally abnormal anchoring fibrils. There have not been DDEB model mouse. In thisstudy, we attempt to generate the DDEB model mice.
