EI Cure Project’s Post

EI Cure Project is pleased to announce our support for a 1-year research project led by Dr Leonie Frommherz and Professor Cristina Has: “Influence of inflammation parameters and signalling cascades for potential therapeutic approaches in Epidermolytic Ichthyosis: a comprehensive analysis integrating proteomic and RNA-Sequence data”. These two wonderful dermatology scientists were key members of the team who recently published the largest population study of EI ever seen: https://lnkd.in/e47a6eBF This new research project aims to build on this work and stands to become the largest evaluation of biological data on EI. Whilst the EI Cure Project is committed to finding a gene-editing solution to cure EI, we also recognise that the EI Community needs better options to relieve symptoms NOW! The aim of this new project is to understand those symptoms better by exploring diagnostic bio markers, and to hopefully identify some new therapeutic targets for drug repurposing. We are excited that this project could lead us to new solutions within the immediate future. Thank you so much Leonie and Cristina, it’s so great to have you in our corner! 🥰 #eicureproject #hope4ei #drugrepurposing #proteomics #RNAsequencedata #epidermolyticichthyosis #ichthyosisawareness #ichthyosisresearch #RAREderm #dermatology
