ABSTRACT Objectives Direct immunofluorescence (DIF) is the gold standard for diagnosing subepidermal blistering diseases (SBDs). However, DIF requires specialized expertise; therefore, alternative immunological methods such as enzyme‐linked immunosorbent assays (ELISA) are worth exploring. The aim of this review was to evaluate the diagnostic agreement

Isolated basal keratinocytes express pemphigoid gestationis antigen
Basal keratinocytes were isolated from epidermal cell suspensions prepared by trypsinization of normal human skin. Cells were identified as basal cells by their adherence to collagen and confirmed as basal cells by the presence of pemphigoid antigen ...

Clinical and immunopathological spectrum of immunoglobulin M pemphigoid: a multicenter case series
Summary Background and Objectives Pemphigoid diseases are primarily mediated by IgG or IgA autoantibodies against the cutaneous basement membrane zone (BMZ). Although recent observations suggest the existence of exclusively IgM‐mediated pemphigoid disease, a larger study is lacking.

Concomitant pemphigus vulgaris and pemphigoid gestationis: a case report and review of the literature [PDF]
Pemphigus and pemphigoid are two unique acquired immunobullous diseases with distinct clinical presentations, histological findings, and characteristic serology; they are rarely reported to coexist in the same patient.

Zusammenfassung Hintergrund und Zielsetzung Die Pemphigoid‐Erkrankungen werden primär durch IgG‐ oder IgA‐Autoantikörper gegen die kutane Basalmembranzone (BMZ) vermittelt. Obwohl rezente Arbeiten auf die Existenz einer ausschließlich IgM‐vermittelten Pemphigoid‐Erkrankung hindeuten, fehlt bislang eine umfassendere Untersuchung.

Western blot analysis of the antigen in pemphigoid gestationis.
Using an immunoblotting technique, sera from 25 patients with pemphigoid gestationis were examined and tested against epidermal and dermal extracts of normal skin. The major antigen recognized by seven patients' sera was a molecule of 180 kDa, pemphigoid

ABSTRACT This Case Shows the Rarity of Dyshidrosiform Bullous Pemphigoid (DBP) as it is the first case to be reported from Nepal. Also, this is the first case of a dermatophyte infection in a patient with DBP. This case underscores the need for more extensive studies on DBP to better understand its incidence, risk factors, pathophysiology, systemic ...
