“…Dupuytren’s disease has a genetic component [3] and can manifest with varying severity. It commonly affects men, however, women also often present, but with a different disease character, such as isolated contracture of the pip-joint in the little finger, and may also have a later disease onset [4].…”

“…12 Their use has also been examined in antitumor therapy, where they show antiproliferative effects. [13][14][15][16] In Dupuytren's disease, the cell responsible for both contraction and extracellular matrix deposition is the myofibroblast 17 and is characterized by the expression of highly contractile α-smooth muscle actin. Research into treatment strategies should be targeted at modulating these myofibroblasts and inhibiting fibroproliferation.…”

“…autosomal-dominant) aus, da Familien-und Zwillings-Studien ein gehäuftes Auftreten belegen [4,10,11]. In einer genomweiten Assoziationsstudie wurde zudem nachgewiesen, dass elf SNP (single nucleotid polymorphism) an neun verschiedenen Genloci an der Entstehung der DK beteiligt sind [12]. Mittlerweile wurden 14 weitere Loci gefunden, wobei die meisten Gene zur Familie der Wnt-Gene gehören [13].…”
