The most severe forms are characterized by soft tissue fibrosis, which significantly contributes to disease morbidity and drives the major cause of death in severe DEB, that is cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma (cSCC). Some efforts to develop causal therapies have been successful but larger implementation is hampered by concerns surrounding efficacy, delivery, safety and costs. An alternative, which has shown preclinical success is to target changes occurring subsequent to skin fragility. The innovative nature of this proposal is to comprehensively analyze the main breeding ground of disease complications linked to fibrotic dermal ECM, to better understand how it is established and to derive much-needed biomarkers of disease progression. These studies will also pave the way towards the identification of novel relevant therapeutic targets, which could help to control aberrant skin remodeling and turn a severe disease into a milder disease.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>PhD positions (36 months funded by DFG and ANR) :<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li><u>Department of Dermatology, Medical Center &#8211; University of Freiburg, Germany (PI : Dr. Alexander Nystr\u00f6m).
