Direct Immunofluorescence Microscopy
Direct immunofluorescence plays an important role in the diagnosis of autoimmune blistering diseases. The purpose of direct immunofluorescence microscopy is to detect in vivo antibodies in patient's skin or mucosa. Direct immunofluorescence of pemphigus shows depositions of immunoglobulins and/or complement on the epithelial cell surface of ...

Direct immunofluorescence in oral lichen planus
Direct immunofluorescent staining (DIF) was performed on biopsy specimens from thirty-five patients with oral lichen planus. The results showed fibrin deposition in all cases at the mucosal-submucosal interface, within colloid bodies (fourteen of thirty-five) and within vascular walls (five of thirty-five).

Direct immunofluorescent findings in scleroderma syndromes
Cutaneous direct immunofluorescent findings were examined in 78 patients who had either vascular scleroderma (group 1, 52 patients) or scleroderma with features of myositis or lupus erythematosus (group 2, 26 patients). Group 2 had higher antinuclear antibody levels, erythrocyte sedimentation rates, serum IgG concentrations, frequency of positive LE ...

At low cell density, SETDB1 and YAP1 accumulate in the nucleus. As cell density increases, the Hippo pathway is gradually activated, and SETDB1 is associated with increased YAP1 phosphorylation. At high cell density, phosphorylated YAP1 is sequestered in the cytoplasm, while SETDB1 becomes polyubiquitinated and degraded by the ubiquitin–proteasome ...
