BP180 Is Critical in the Autoimmunity of Bullous Pemphigoid [PDF]
Bullous pemphigoid (BP) is by far the most common autoimmune blistering dermatosis that mainly occurs in the elderly. The BP180 is a transmembrane glycoprotein, which is highly immunodominant in BP. The structure and location of BP180 indicate that it is

Anti-BP180 Autoantibodies Are Present in Stroke and Recognize Human Cutaneous BP180 and BP180-NC16A [PDF]
BackgroundCurrent evidence has revealed a significant association between bullous pemphigoid (BP) and neurological diseases (ND), including stroke, but the incidence of BP autoantibodies in patients with stroke has not previously been investigated ...

BP180 dysfunction triggers spontaneous skin inflammation in mice [PDF]
Significance BP180 is a cell–cell matrix adhesion molecule and is critical for attachment of epidermis to underlying dermis. We generated a dysfunctional BP180 mouse strain (Δ NC16A mice).

Bullous pemphigoid and mucous membrane pemphigoid humoral responses differ in reactivity towards BP180 midportion and BP230 [PDF]
BackgroundBullous pemphigoid (BP) and mucous membrane pemphigoid (MMP) are rare autoimmune blistering disorders characterized by autoantibodies (autoAbs) targeting dermo-epidermal junction components such as BP180 and BP230.

Analysis of the autoimmune response against BP180 and BP230 in ethnic Poles with neurodegenerative disorders and bullous pemphigoid [PDF]
Recent studies postulated the association between bullous pemphigoid (BP) and neurodegenerative disorders (ND). The autoantibodies to BP180 and/or BP230 may be present not only in BP, but also in ND as neuronal isoforms of these proteins are identified ...

IgE autoantibodies against the intracellular domain of BP180
BACKGROUND: Bullous pemphigoid (BP) is an autoimmune subepidermal blistering disease characterized by autoantibodies against the hemidesmosomal proteins BP180 (type XVII collagen) and BP230.

Bullous Pemphigoid and Cicatricial Pemphigoid Autoantibodies React with Ultrastructurally Separable Epitopes on the BP180 Ectodomain: Evidence that BP180 Spans the Lamina Lucida [PDF]
The BP180 antigen is a hemidesmosomal glycoprotein that is recognized by autoantibodies associated with three autoimmune disorders, bullous pemphigoid (BP), herpes gestationis (HG), and cicatricial pemphigoid (CP).

Oral pemphigoid autoantibodies preferentially target BP180 ectodomain
Mucous membrane pemphigoid (MMP) comprises a heterogenous group of autoimmune subepithelial bullous diseases very frequently having oral involvement. Very few studies have investigated the immunological status of a subset of MMP, termed oral pemphigoid ...
