  4. 7. Skin Barrier Function and mRNA Expression Profiles in Patients with Atopic Dermatitis, Ichthyosis Vulgaris, and X-linked Recessive Ichthyosis : Aetiopathogenic Differences and the Impact of Moisturizing Treatment

    Author : Torborg Sturesdotter Hoppe; Berit Berne; Hans Törmä; Anders Vahlquist; Charlotta Enerbäck; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; atopic dermatitis; ichthyosis vulgaris; X-linked recessive ichthyosis; skin barrier function; moisturizers; transepidermal water loss; gene expression; Dermatologi och venereologi; Dermatology and Venerology;

    Abstract : Atopic dermatitis (AD), ichthyosis vulgaris (IV), and X-linked recessive ichthyosis (XLRI) are characterized by dry skin and impaired skin barrier. AD and IV are related to loss-of-function mutations in FLG (encoding filaggrin), whereas XLRI is caused by deletions or inactivating mutations in the steroid sulphatase gene (STS). READ MORE

  5. 8. Studies on colonization and infection with Staphylococcus aureus and other microbes in skin disease

  7. 10. Parental exposures and occurence of adverse pregnancy outcomes and childhood atopic diseases

    Author : Linda L Magnusson; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : Parental exposure; occupational exposure; organic solvents; smoking; adverse pregnancy outcomes; atopic diseases;

    Abstract : The aim of this thesis was to investigate whether parental laboratory work is associated with adverse pregnancy outcomes, and if maternal occupation as well as exposure to organic solvents and smoking during pregnancy are associated with atopic diseases in childhood. The studies were based on two different study populations. READ MORE
