Recessive dystrophic epidermolysis bullosa (RDEB) is a genodermatosis characterized by fragile skin forming blisters that heal invariably with scars. It is due to mutations in the COL7A1 gene encoding type VII collagen, the major component of anchoring fibrils connecting the cutaneous basement membr...
We performed comprehensive proteome profiling (ECM and cell lysate) of human collagen VII deficient and control epidermal keratinocytes to generate global and detailed images of dysregulated epidermal molecular pathways linked to loss of collagen VII. These revealed downregulation of interaction par...
Expression proteomics of back skin of collagen VII (C7) hypomorphic and WT mice was performed to detect differences in the skin proteome dependent on the presence of collagen VII and the treatment with losartan.
