Researcher's Work from University of Naples Focuses on Ichthyosis (Comprehensive Molecular Analysis of Disease-Related Genes as First-Tier Test for Early Diagnosis, Classification, and Management of Patients Affected by Nonsyndromic Ichthyosis).

A recent study conducted at the University of Naples in Italy focused on ichthyosis, a group of rare skin disorders. The researchers used molecular analysis to classify 17 unrelated Italian patients with congenital nonsyndromic ichthyosis. They identified the genetic causes of the disease in all patients, including novel variants. The study expands the understanding of the genetic, mutational, and phenotypic spectra of inherited ichthyosis and provides valuable insights into the early diagnosis and management of patients affected by this condition.
