Therapeutic Options for IgA Pemphigus in Patients Refractory to Dapsone

JEADV Clinical Practice, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT IgA pemphigus is a rare autoimmune blistering disorder with limited therapeutic guidance available due to its rarity and complex presentation. This comprehensive analysis evaluates the therapeutic outcomes of 67 published patients, emphasising the significant role of dapsone as the first‐line treatment.

Anti‐desmoglein‐2 autoantibodies do not discriminate between UK boxer dogs with and without arrhythmogenic right ventricular cardiomyopathy

Veterinary Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Evidence regarding the diagnostic utility of serum anti‐desmoglein‐2 (DSG2) autoantibodies for arrhythmogenic right ventricular cardiomyopathy (ARVC) in boxer dogs is conflicting. Methods Prospective standardised evaluation of apparently healthy boxer dogs for ARVC was performed at three referral centres, including blood pressure ...

Post-Aire maturation of thymic medullary epithelial cells involves selective expression of keratinocyte-specific autoantigens

Frontiers in Immunology, 2012
The autoimmune regulator (Aire)-directed ectopic expression of tissue-specific antigens (TSAs) by mature medullary thymic epithelial cells (mTECs) has been viewed as an essential mechanism in the induction of central tolerance.

Expression of Desmoglein 1 Compensates for Genetic Loss of Desmoglein 3 in Keratinocyte Adhesion [PDF]

Journal of Investigative Dermatology, 2002
The desmoglein compensation hypothesis, namely that one desmoglein can compensate for loss of function of another, has been proposed to explain the tissue specificity of the autoantibody-induced loss of cell adhesion in pemphigus. To validate this hypothesis genetically, we used desmoglein-3 knockout mice (DSG3-/-) that lose their telogen hair ...

Dynamics of the CD9 interactome during bacterial infection of epithelial cells by proximity labelling proteomics

The FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
We describe the CD9 interactome in epithelial cells for the first time. The interactome is diverse and dynamic and changes dependent on infection with specific bacteria. We validate these data by showing functional interaction between CD9 with CD44 or CD147. We therefore demonstrate that CD9 is a universal organiser of bacterial adhesion platforms able

Evaluation of a novel chemiluminescent immunoassay for autoantibody detection in pemphigus and bullous pemphigoid

Frontiers in Immunology
BackgroundA novel fully automated chemiluminescent immunoassay (CLIA) has been developed to quantify autoantibodies specific for desmogleins (Dsg1, Dsg3), BP180, and BP230, key target antigens in pemphigus and bullous pemphigoid.

Mucous Membrane Pemphigoid After Anti‐PD‐1 Therapy: Risk‐Stratified Management and Treatment Outcomes

International Journal of Dermatology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Mucous membrane pemphigoid (MMP) following anti‐programmed cell death‐1 (PD‐1) therapy is rare but increasingly reported. Management of high‐ and low‐risk MMP in this setting and the potential oncologic trade‐offs remain poorly defined. We performed a narrative synthesis of all published cases of anti‐PD‐1‐associated MMP, following MEDLINE ...

European S2k guidelines on management of autoimmune blistering diseases in children and adolescents

Journal of the European Academy of Dermatology and Venereology, EarlyView.
Autoimmune blistering disorders (AIBDs) in children are rare, challenging to diagnose and treat and often require immunosuppressants. Until now, no paediatric care guidelines existed. The EADV Task Force for AIBDs has developed the consensus‐based recommendations, enabling physicians to adopt a uniform, tailored treatment strategy to improve outcomes ...

Incidence of P200 pemphigoid: A nationwide study

Journal 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.

IgA pemphigus showing IgA antibodies to desmoglein 1 and 3

Dermatology Practical & Conceptual, 2016
Background: IgA pemphigus is a rare autoimmune vesiculo-pustular skin disease. Only approximately 70 cases have been reported to date. We report a case of IgA pemphigus with IgA antibodies to desmoglein 1 (Dsg1) and desmoglein 3 (Dsg3).
