Pemphigus vulgaris (PV) is a rare blistering disease caused by IgG autoantibodies against the epidermal adhesion molecules desmoglein (Dsg)3 and Dsg1 providing a well-characterized paradigm of an antibody-mediated organ-specific autoimmune disease. In PV

A Case Report of a Patient With Recalcitrant Pemphigus Vulgaris Treated With Rituximab
ABSTRACT Pemphigus vulgaris may demonstrate differential treatment responses across disease sites. In this case, cutaneous lesions responded to high‐dose corticosteroids, whereas refractory oral disease required rituximab to achieve remission, highlighting the need for individualized, multimodal therapy to achieve sustained disease control.

Integrated Immune, Epithelial and Lipid Pathways in NSAID‐Exacerbated Respiratory Disease
ABSTRACT NSAID‐exacerbated respiratory disease (N‐ERD) is a chronic inflammatory disorder characterized by asthma, chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps and respiratory reactions to cyclooxygenase‐1 inhibiting nonsteroidal anti‐inflammatory drugs (NSAID).

Colocalization of desmoglein-2 and integrin-beta8 in N-MVECs.
A) Immunostaining of N-MVECs with anti-desmoglein-2 and anti-integrin-beta8 antibodies (nuclei stained with DAPI) in a single N-MVEC (upper row) and in a group of N-MVECs (lower row).

The expressions of desmoglein 1 and 3 according to chronologic skin aging
Background: Desmogleins ate transmembrane glycoproteins of the desmosome which provide mechanical strength to epithelial tissue. Desmogleins have so far, been implicated in several diseases such as pemphigus, striate palmoplantar keratoderma, 4S and ...

Unbiased screening identifies regulators of cell-cell adhesion and treatment options in pemphigus
Cell-cell junctions, and specifically desmosomes, are crucial for robust intercellular adhesion. Desmosomal function is compromised in the autoimmune blistering skin disease pemphigus vulgaris.

Non-pathogenic Anti-Desmoglein 3 IgG Autoantibodies in Fogo Selvagem [PDF]
The endemic form of pemphigus foliaceus, fogo selvagem, is caused by IgG autoantibodies directed against desmoglein 1 (Dsg1). Hilario-Vargas and his colleagues describe a high prevalence of IgG autoantibodies against Dsg3, the target antigen of pemphigus

Desmoglein-2 interaction is crucial for cardiomyocyte cohesion and function.
AIMS: We determined the contribution of the desmosomal cadherin desmoglein-2 to cell-cell cohesion in cardiomyocytes. In the intercalated disc, providing mechanical strength and electrical communication between adjacent cardiomyocytes, desmoglein-2 is ...
