Incidence of P200 pemphigoid: A nationwide study

open access: yesJournal of the European Academy of Dermatology and Venereology, EarlyView.
The anti‐LAMB4 cell‐based immunoassay is a new serological technique that is far superior to dermal immunoblotting for detecting autoantibodies directed against the P200 protein. This method allows a re‐evaluation of the incidence of P200 pemphigoid, which appears to be considerably more frequent than epidermolysis bullosa acquisita.
