Pemphigus‐associated cardiomyopathy: report of autoimmune myocarditis and review of literature
ESC Heart Failure, Volume 8, Issue 5, Page 3690-3695, October 2021., 2021 Abstract Pemphigus is a rare disease characterized by bullous lesions of the skin and mucous membranes. The aetiology is autoimmune and related to the formation of IgG autoantibodies against desmogleins, which are structural proteins of desmosomes that ensure the stability of contacts between cells.

Disease Markers, Volume 2021, Issue 1, 2021., 2021 Background. Long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) are involved in autoimmune diseases. However, the role of lncRNAs in pemphigus remains elusive. Objective. The study is aimed at investigating the expression profile in pemphigus patients to identify a circulating lncRNA as a novel biomarker for pemphigus. Method.
