Cheek-Pro-Heart: What Can the Buccal Mucosa Do for Arrhythmogenic Cardiomyopathy?
Arrhythmogenic cardiomyopathy (ACM) is a heart muscle disease associated with ventricular arrhythmias and a high risk of sudden cardiac death (SCD). Although the disease was described over 40 years ago, its diagnosis is still difficult.

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

A Monoclonal Antibody Recognizing Desmosomes: Use in Human Pathology [PDF]
A mouse monoclonal IgG1 antibody that recognizes desmosomes in human tissues has been isolated and characterized. DP1 recognizes desmoplakin I (250 kD) in immunoblots of partially purified desmosome preparations.

Dsg3 epitope-specific signalling in pemphigus
IntroductionPemphigus is an autoantibody driven disease that impairs the barrier function of the skin and mucosa by disrupting desmosomes and thereby impeding cellular cohesion. It is known that the different clinical phenotypes of pemphigus vulgaris (PV)

Expression and Significance of Cadherins and Its Subtypes in Development and Progression of Oral Cancers: A Review [PDF]
Cadherins are a family of transmembranous glycoproteins responsible for calcium-dependent intercellular adhesion. Absence or loss of function of E-cadherin leads to the disappearance of epithelial characteristics of the cells and generates higher ...

Desmosomal cadherins utilize distinct kinesins for assembly into desmosomes [PDF]
The desmosomal cadherins, desmogleins (Dsgs) and desmocollins (Dscs), comprise the adhesive core of intercellular junctions known as desmosomes. Although these adhesion molecules are known to be critical for tissue integrity, mechanisms that coordinate their trafficking into intercellular junctions to regulate their proper ratio and distribution are ...
