  Definition: A cause for genetic instability is the frequent appearance of mismatches on the double helix of DNA. (DNA mismatch repair)
  Base-base mismatches
  Base-base mismatches and small loops may occur during most of the main mechanism that process DNA, that is, replication, recombination and repair itself. From bacteria to eukaryotes, (...)

  Lesions
  Whether the lesion is located in the skin, lungs, bones, or heart valves, S. aureus causes pyogenic inflammation that is distinctive for its local destructiveness.
  Staphylococcal skin infections
  Excluding impetigo, which is a staphylococcal or streptococcal infection restricted to the superficial epidermis, staphylococcal skin infections are centered around the hair follicles.
  A furuncle, or boil, is a focal suppurative inflammation of the skin and subcutaneous tissue, either (...)

• nail genetic diseases
  18 January 2005

  Hair and nail development have many similarities and are likely to share many developmental pathways. This is evident from the ectodermal dysplasias that affect both appendages. Of special interest are syndromic disorders as they show the effects of disturbances in molecular pathways that are essential for normal embryonic development.
