These authors found a diffuse pattern of desmoglein 1 distribution all over the surface of corneocytes from the psoriatic scale, reminiscent of the above-described findings in ichthyosis vulgaris, suggesting that corneodesmosome retention at the ventral/dorsal surfaces of cells might not be pathognomonic but rather related to the relative “maturity” of individual corneocytes in various types of lesions. Here, DSG1 is linked to inherited ichthyosis.
