Mucous membrane pemphigoid (MMP) is the subgroup of pemphigoid which affects mucous membranes. Several subtypes are classified based on clinical symptoms and target antigens, such as ocular mucous membrane pemphigoid (OMMP), localized vulvar pemphigoid (LVP), and anti-laminin 332 MMP (anti-LN-332 MMP).
