Re: Lamellar ichthysosis

There was a paper written in one of the journals some time ago about gene therapy and LI, but I do not know of any further advances, I believe research is still being undertaken. It is not clear where you live but there are several organisations that provide information and support. The Foundation for Ichthyosis and Related Skin types, www.firstskinfoundation.org , The British skin foundation, www.britishskinfoundation.org, the European network for Ichthyosis , and www.ichthyosis.co.uk
