Development of a Desmocollin-3 Active Mouse Model Recapitulating Human Atypical Pemphigus
Pemphigus vulgaris (PV) is a life-threatening mucocutaneous autoimmune blistering disease. It is often associated with autoantibodies to the desmosomal adhesion proteins Desmoglein 3 (DSG3) and Desmoglein 1 (DSG1).

Lesions of pemphigus vulgaris on irradiated skin [PDF]
Summary Pemphigus vulgaris (PV) is an autoimmune blistering disease produced by IgG autoantibodies against desmoglein (Dsg)3. Lesions on the skin and mucosa can, in rare cases, be induced by radiotherapy.

Obesity Impairs Skin Barrier Function and Facilitates Allergic Sensitization in Mice
Diet‐induced obesity increases transepidermal water loss and compromises barrier function through downregulation of tight junctions and desmosomes. During obesity, MC903 elicits a mixed Th1/2/17 immune response in the skin leading to aggravated ear swelling.

Lots of autoantibodies equal lupus? [PDF]
Autoantibodies may be found years before an autoimmune disease becomes clinically apparent. For systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), those to RNA-binding proteins, to phospholipids, and to double-stranded DNA, in particular, have been found in sera of SLE

The role of nitric oxide synthases in pemphigus vulgaris in a mouse model [PDF]
Pemphigus vulgaris (PV) is a blistering autoimmune disease characterized by IgG autoantibodies against desmoglein 3. Nitric oxide synthases (NOS) may contribute to the increase of inflammation in tissues by the generation of ...

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

Autoimmun betegségekben szerepet játszó új, diagnosztikus epitópok, valamint Fc receptorhoz kötődő és effektor funkciót kiváltó IgG Fc peptidkimérák azonosítása, szintézise és funkcionális jellemzése = Identification, synthesis and functional characterisation of new, diagnostic epitopes in autoimmune diseases, and of IgG Fc peptide chimeras binding to Fc receptor and triggering effector function [PDF]
Autoimmun hólyagos bőrbetegségekre jellemző B- és T-sejt epitóppeptideket szintetizáltunk szilárdfázisú peptidszintézissel, Fmoc/tBu stratégiával. A peptideket tisztítottuk, azonosítottuk.

Ageing causes actin cytoskeleton disorganization, a reduction in cellular components associated with the actin cytoskeleton and focal adhesions, and a reduction in skin firmness. Galactomyces ferment filtrate boosts actin stability, increases expression of anchoring junction proteins, including focal adhesions and protects against loss of firmness ...
