Abstract
Recessive dystrophic epidermolysis bullosa (RDEB) is one of the most severe skin diseases and is caused by loss-of-function mutations in COL7A1 encoding type VII collagen (C7). Patients with RDEB suffer since birth from skin and mucosal blistering and develop severe local and systemic complications resulting in a poor prognosis. Mesenchymal stromal cells (MSC) have been shown to have therapeutic potential to improve wound healing and skin inflammation in RDEB patients due to their capacity to express C7 and their anti-inflammatory properties.
