Pathogenic monoclonal antibody against desmoglein 3 augments desmoglein 3 and p38 MAPK phosphorylation in human squamous carcinoma cell line

open access: yesAutoimmunity, 2006
Pemphigus vulgaris is an autoimmune blistering disease characterized by cell-cell detachment of epidermal cells. Autoantibody against desmoglein (Dsg) 3, a transmembrane glycoprotein that mediates the association of desmosomes, plays a major role in blistering in pemphigus vulgaris (PV). The mechanisms of autoantibody-induced acantholysis have not been

Pathogenicity and Epitope Characteristics Do Not Differ in IgG Subclass-Switched Anti-Desmoglein 3 IgG1 and IgG4 Autoantibodies in Pemphigus Vulgaris

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2016
Pemphigus vulgaris (PV) is characterized by IgG1 and IgG4 autoantibodies to desmoglein (Dsg) 3, causing suprabasal blistering of skin and mucous membranes.

The disease mutation A77V in Ryanodine receptor RyR2 induces changes in energy conduction pathways in the protein [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Energetically responsive residues of the 217 amino acid N-terminal domain of the cardiac Ryanodine receptor RyR2 are identified by a simple elastic net model. These residues lie along a hydrogen bonded path through the protein.

New insights into desmosome regulation and pemphigus blistering as a desmosome-remodeling disease

open access: yesKaohsiung Journal of Medical Sciences, 2013
Desmosomes in keratinocytes are the most important intercellular adhering junctions that provide structural strength for the epidermis. These junctions are connected directly with desmosomal cadherin proteins.

Desmoglein 3, via an Interaction with E-cadherin, Is Associated with Activation of Src

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2010
Desmoglein 3 (Dsg3), a desmosomal adhesion protein, is expressed in basal and immediate suprabasal layers of skin and across the entire stratified squamous epithelium of oral mucosa. However, increasing evidence suggests that the role of Dsg3 may involve more than just cell-cell adhesion.To determine possible additional roles of Dsg3 during epithelial ...

Serological diagnosis of autoimmune bullous skin diseases: Prospective comparison of the BIOCHIP mosaic-based indirect immunofluorescence technique with the conventional multi-step single test strategy

open access: yesOrphanet Journal of Rare Diseases, 2012
Background Various antigen-specific immunoassays are available for the serological diagnosis of autoimmune bullous diseases. However, a spectrum of different tissue-based and monovalent antigen-specific assays is required to establish the diagnosis ...

Immunity to self co-generates regulatory T cells [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Immune responses to self are kept in check by tolerance mechanisms, including suppression by regulatory T cells (Tregs). The defective generation of Tregs specific for self-antigens may lead to autoimmune disease.
