Evaluating differential expression of fibrosis-related genes and their correlation with blood vessel density in chronic cutaneous graft-versus-host disease.

Background: Sclerodermoid graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) is the most severe form of chronic GVHD (cGVHD) and represents a considerable therapeutic challenge. Due to the scarcity of human studies on sclerodermoid cGVHD, the pathogenesis of this entity is not fully understood.

Objective: To identify the differential expression of fibrosis-related genes in skin lesions of human lichenoid and sclerodermoid cGVHD and to assess the expression of their corresponding proteins.
