Hidradenitis Suppurativa: Comprehensive Review of Predisposing Genetic Mutations and Changes

Abstract excerpt

Hidradenitis suppurativa (HS) is a chronic inflammatory skin disorder. A genetic component in the pathogenesis is highly likely considering that ~30% to 40% of patients with HS report a family history of the disease. The genetic mutations related to HS that have been reported to date suggest HS can be inherited as a monogenic trait because of a defect in either the Notch signaling pathway or inflammasome...
