The Anti-Desmoglein 1 Autoantibodies in Pemphigus Vulgaris Sera are Pathogenic
Pemphigus vulgaris and pemphigus foliaceus are two closely related, but clinically and histologically distinct, autoimmune skin diseases. The autoantigens for pemphigus vulgaris and pemphigus foliaceus are desmoglein 3 and desmoglein 1, respectively. The

Innate immune activation as cofactor in pemphigus disease manifestation
Molecular mechanisms underlying auto-antibody-induced acantholysis in pemphigus vulgaris are subject of current research to date. To decipher the discrepancy between ubiquitous antibody binding to the epidermal desmosomes, but discontinuous disease ...

Paraneoplastic pemphigus without antibodies to desmoglein 1 and [PDF]
Paraneoplastic pemphigus is a severe autoimmune blistering disease presenting in the setting of underlying malignancy. Paraneoplastic pemphigus is associated with diffuse painful stomatitis throughout the oral cavity with extension to the lips. The cutaneous findings are varied and have been described as lichenoid, pemphigoid, and targetoid lesions ...

Circulating Antibodies Against DSG1 and DSG3 in Patients with Oral Lichen Planus: A Scoping Review
Oral Lichen Planus (OLP) is a chronic autoimmune disease with potential overlap with Pemphigus Vulgaris (PV), particularly in erosive forms. Desmoglein 1 and 3 are transmembrane glycoproteins of desmosomes, typically involved in PV.

Implications of normal and disordered remodeling dynamics of corneodesmosomes in stratum corneum
Desmosomes and corneodesmosomes are the most important adhering junctions, providing strength for the epidermal sheet structure made of living keratinocytes and enucleated stratum corneum corneocytes, respectively.

Cyclophosphamide is associated with long‐term treatment‐free remission in patients with pemphigus
Summary Background and objective Pemphigus treatment has seen significant advancements, yet long‐term remission remains a challenge. Comparative data on the long‐term effectiveness of available therapies are limited. We compared 10‐year relapse rates in pemphigus patients treated with azathioprine or cyclophosphamide plus high‐dose IV corticosteroids ...
