Fibroblast RNA-Seq data from three genodermatoses (RDEB, XPC and KS)

Recessive dystrophic epidermolysis bullosa, Kindler syndrome and xeroderma pigmentosum C, are three cancer-prone genodermatoses whose causal genetic mutations cannot fully explain, on their own, the array of associated phenotypic manifestations. Recent evidence highlights the contributing role of the stromal microenvironment in the pathology of these disorders. To investigate common mechanisms that contribute to the pathogenic role played by dermal fibroblasts, we conducted a comparative gene expression analysis by RNA-Seq. 3 healthy controls, 9 RDEB, 3 XPC and 3 KS patients
