Abstract excerpt
Prurigo nodularis (PN) is a chronic inflammatory skin disease characterized by pruritic skin nodules of unknown etiology. Little is known about genetic changes in PN pathogenesis, particularly somatic events, which are often implicated in inflammatory conditions. We thus performed whole-exome sequencing on 54 lesional and nonlesional skin biopsies from 17 patients with PN and 10 patients with atopic dermatitis...
