Tocilizumab for severe and refractory mucous membrane pemphigoid

open access: yesJournal of the European Academy of Dermatology and Venereology, Volume 40, Issue 10, Page 1682-1691, October 2026.
Elevated IL‐6 levels identified in mucous membrane pemphigoid support IL‐6 blockade, with tocilizumab demonstrating clinical benefit in nine patients with severe and refractory mucous membrane pemphigoid. Abstract Background Mucous membrane pemphigoid (MMP) is a rare autoimmune blistering disease involving mucous membranes with a potentially ...

Integrin α6β4 Recognition of a Linear Motif of Bullous Pemphigoid Antigen BP230 Controls Its Recruitment to Hemidesmosomes

open access: yes, 2019
Mechanical stability of epithelia requires firm attachment to the basement membrane via hemidesmosomes. Dysfunction of hemidesmosomal proteins causes severe skin-blistering diseases.

Epidermolysis Bullosa Classification and Current Approach to Diagnosis

open access: yesPediatric Dermatology, Volume 43, Issue S2, Page 5-15, August 2026.
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.

Association of Autoantibodies to BP180 with Disease Activity in Greek Patients with Bullous Pemphigoid

open access: yesClinical and Developmental Immunology, 2012
39 bullous pemphigoid (BP) patients were studied to assess the clinical significance of anti-BP180 and anti-BP230 circulating autoantibodies of BP and correlate their titers with the clinical scores of the BP Disease Area Index (BPDAI) and the Autoimmune

Immune Reaction to Type XVII Collagen Induces Intramolecular and Intermolecular Epitope Spreading in Experimental Bullous Pemphigoid Models

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2019
Bullous pemphigoid (BP), the most common autoimmune blistering disease, is induced by autoantibodies to type XVII collagen (COL17). Previous studies demonstrated that COL17 harbors several epitopes targeted by autoreactive T and B cells and that the ...
