The metalloproteinase ADAM17 promotes acute lung inflammatory responses during pancreatitis

British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Background and Purpose Acute pancreatitis (AP) is a multifactorial upper gastrointestinal inflammatory disorder that in severe cases (~20% of all AP) is associated with substantial morbidity and mortality, the latter coincident with multiorgan dysfunction, particularly acute lung injury (ALI).

Evaluation of desmoglein 1 and 3 autoantibodies in pemphigus vulgaris : correlation with disease severity [PDF]

, 2020
Pemphigus is an autoimmune blistering disease of the skin and mucous membranes caused by autoantibodies against desmoglein 1 (Dsg1) and desmoglein 3 (Dsg3). Pemphigus vulgaris (PV) is the most common form of pemphigus. The aim of this study was to assess

Cyclophosphamide is associated with long‐term treatment‐free remission in patients with pemphigus

JDDG: Journal der Deutschen Dermatologischen Gesellschaft, EarlyView.
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 ...

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 ...

Clinical activity of pemphigus vulgaris relates to IgE autoantibodies against desmoglein 3

, 2010
Pemphigus vulgaris (PV) is a severe autoimmune bullous skin disease and is primarily associated with IgG against desmoglein 3 (dsg3), a desmosomal adhesion protein.

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.

The Anti-Desmoglein 1 Autoantibodies in Pemphigus Vulgaris Sera are Pathogenic

, 1999
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

OX40/OX40L modulation: A target for regulating T cells in cutaneous inflammatory disorders

Journal of the European Academy of Dermatology and Venereology, EarlyView.
OX40 and OX40L are a co‐stimulatory immune checkpoint pair. Modulation of this pair impacts multiple immune phenotypes and is an attractive target for immunotherapy in dermatological disorders. Trials are underway with the majority in atopic dermatitis and currently in phase 3 trials.

Genetic Evidence for a Novel Human Desmosomal Cadherin, Desmoglein 4

, 2003
Desmosomes are essential adhesion structures in most epithelia that link the intermediate filament network of one cell to its neighbor, thereby forming a strong bond.
