Recessive mutation in desmoplakin disrupts desmoplakin–intermediate filament interactions and causes dilated cardiomyopathy, woolly hair and keratoderma

TL;DR: The first recessive human mutation, 7901delG, in the desmoplakin gene is described which causes a generalized striate keratoderma particularly affecting the palmoplantar epidermis, woolly hair and a dilated left ventricular cardiomyopathy and a number of the patients with this syndromic disorder suffer heart failure in their teenage years, resulting in early morbidity.
Journal ArticleDOI

The Human Intermediate Filament Database: comprehensive information on a gene family involved in many human diseases

TL;DR: A revised and expanded database on human intermediate filament proteins, a major component of the eukaryotic cytoskeleton, it is anticipated that the HIFD will provide a useful resource to study human genome variations for basic scientists, clinicians, and students alike.
Journal ArticleDOI

Stem cell patterns in cell lines derived from head and neck squamous cell carcinoma

TL;DR: Observations indicate that cell lines derived from HNSCC contain cells with stem cell properties and that such cell lines may provide experimental systems relevant to the behaviour of stem cells present in the tumours of origin and to their responses to therapy.
