Background: RDEB is an inherited skin blistering disease caused by mutations in COL7A1 that encodes C7, a major component in anchoring fibrils at the basement membrane.
We recently demonstrated that human cord blood (CB) derived unrestricted somatic stem

donor cells to enhance CB engraftment and immune reconstitution in patients with malignant
and non-malignant diseases.
