Epidermolysis Bullosa Classification and Current Approach to Diagnosis
ABSTRACT Epidermolysis bullosa (EB) is a heterogeneous group of rare genodermatoses marked by skin fragility and bullae formation induced by minor trauma. Pathologic variants in at least 21 genes are associated with EB, grouped into four major subtypes based predominantly on the plane of cleavage within the skin.

Background Although the exact pathogenic mechanisms leading to blister formation in pemphigus vulgaris (PV) have not been fully elucidated, intracellular signaling following antibody binding has been found to be necessary for inducing cell-cell ...

Scanning electron microscopy of acantholysis in pemphigus foliaceus [PDF]
We performed scanning electron microscopy of an inverted blister roof in a case of pemphigus foliaceus. The loss of intercellular adherence could be easily seen with low magnification. The acantholytic keratinocytes displayed an irregular and sometimes polygonal contour. Round cells, typically seen in light microscopy, were also observed.

Cantharidin-induced acantholysis in Darier's disease: does acantholysis initiate dyskeratosis?
Summary We have examined the action of cantharidin on the skin of patients with Darier's disease, and used immunohistological techniques to determine the distribution of desmosomal components, keratin intermediate filaments, and proteases in cantharidin-induced blisters.

ABSTRACT Background and Aims This study investigated the association between adherence to the EAT‐Lancet diet—a predominantly plant‐based, anti‐inflammatory dietary pattern—and the severity of pemphigus vulgaris (PV), a rare autoimmune blistering disease. Methods This cross‐sectional study was conducted in an Iranian population with a high incidence of

Acantholytic dyskeratotic acanthoma: case report and review of the literature
Background: Focal acantholytic dyskeratosis has been described as an incidental finding and as a clinically distinct lesion. In both situations, a dimorphic histologic pattern is observed: acantholysis and dyskeratosis.
