Connexin disorders of the skin.

Abstract excerpt

Over the past decade, the molecular basis of most disorders of cornification has been unveiled. Among these, a distinct group has emerged because of primary defects in cell-cell communication due to faulty gap junction proteins also known as connexins. This review aims to delineate the cutaneous connexin disorders and to highlight intriguing genotype-phenotype correlations and emanating clinical implications.
