Direct and indirect immunofluorescence [PDF]

, 2010
A imunofluorescência é um valioso instrumento auxiliar no diagnóstico das dermatoses bolhosas autoimunes e desordens inflamatórias, uma vez que seus achados clínicos e histopatológicos podem não ser determinantes.

Case Report: Bullous Pemphigoid Associated With Morphea and Lichen Sclerosus: Coincidental Diseases or Pathogenetic Association?

Frontiers in Immunology, 2022
Bullous pemphigoid (BP) represents the most common autoimmune bullous disease and is characterized by IgG autoantibodies targeting collagen XVII (BP180). BP has reportedly been occurred in association with other inflammatory skin diseases.

High Index Values of Enzyme-Linked Immunosorbent Assay for BP180 at Baseline Predict Relapse in Patients With Bullous Pemphigoid

Frontiers in Medicine, 2018
Bullous pemphigoid (BP) presenting with erythema plaques and tense blisters is the most frequent autoimmune bullous disease. Immunologically, BP is characterized by the presence of circulating anti-epidermal basement membrane zone (BMZ) antibodies.

Genetic Suppression of Basement Membrane Defects in Caenorhabditis elegans by Gain of Function in Extracellular Matrix and Cell-Matrix Attachment Genes. [PDF]

, 2018
Basement membranes are extracellular matrices essential for embryonic development in animals. Peroxidasins are extracellular peroxidases implicated in the unique sulfilimine cross-links between type IV basement membrane collagens. Loss of function in the

Analysis of the autoimmune response against BP180 and BP230 in ethnic Poles with neurodegenerative disorders and bullous pemphigoid

Central European Journal of Immunology, 2017
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 ...

Assessing Disease Outcome Measures in Bullous Pemphigoid on Standard-Of-Care Therapies

JID Innovations, 2021
Bullous pemphigoid (BP) is an autoimmune blistering disease resulting in pruritus and cutaneous blistering. Longitudinal studies characterizing the disease course of patients with BP on conventional therapy are lacking.

Immunoglobulin E-Mediated Autoimmunity [PDF]

, 2018
The study of autoimmunity mediated by immunoglobulin E (IgE) autoantibodies, which may be termed autoallergy, is in its infancy. It is now recognized that systemic lupus erythematosus, bullous pemphigoid (BP), and chronic urticaria, both spontaneous and ...

Checkpoint Inhibition May Trigger the Rare Variant of Anti-LAD-1 IgG-Positive, Anti-BP180 NC16A IgG-Negative Bullous Pemphigoid

Frontiers in Immunology, 2019
Bullous pemphigoid (BP) is an autoimmune blistering skin disease characterized by an autoimmune response to type XVII collagen (BP180). The generation of anti-BP180-NC16A IgG autoantibodies is considered to be central to the pathogenesis of BP, in part ...

Bullous pemphigoid associated with milia, increased serum IgE, autoantibodies against desmogleins, and refractory treatment in a young patient [PDF]

Anais Brasileiros de Dermatologia, 2017
: Bullous pemphigoid is a blistering autoimmune disease characterized by two hemidesmosomal proteins (anti-BP180 and 230). Pemphigus, by contrast, is characterized by two autoantibodies (anti-desmoglein 1 and 3).
