12 Dec 2018
Abstract excerpt
Hidradenitis suppurativa (HS), or acne inversa, is a chronic inflammatory skin disorder characterized clinically with acne-like lesions in apocrine gland-bearing skin, follicular occlusion and recurrent inflammation. Thirty-four unique mutations in patients with HS have been found in three genes encoding the γ-secretase complex: nicastrin (NCSTN), presenilin 1 (PSEN1), presenilin enhancer 2 (PSENEN) and in...
