Management of Bullous Pemphigoid in Special Populations: A Narrative Review of the Literature

Dermatologic Therapy, Volume 2025, Issue 1, 2025.
Bullous pemphigoid (BP) mostly affects elderly patients who have age‐related comorbidities, and BP itself is associated with neurologic comorbidities independently of the patients’ age. Identifying comorbidities in patients with newly diagnosed BP is important to define the prognosis, to choose the best therapeutic strategy, and to plan follow‐ups ...

Recognizing presentations of pemphigoid gestationis: a case study. [PDF]

Case Rep Obstet Gynecol, 2014
Introduction. Pemphigoid gestationis (PG) is an autoimmune blistering disease that occurs in approximately 1 in 50,000 pregnancies. Failing to recognize PG may lead to inadequate maternal treatment and possible neonatal complications. Case Report.

Two pemphigoid cases with mucous membrane involvement successfully treated with baricitinib

JEADV Clinical Practice, Volume 3, Issue 5, Page 1656-1659, December 2024.
Abstract Both bullous pemphigoid and mucous membrane pemphigoid are autoimmune bullous diseases that can be challenging to treat in individual cases. Janus kinase inhibitors have shown efficacy in several autoimmune and inflammatory diseases, although these drugs are not yet widely used in autoimmune bullous diseases.

Use of Biologic Therapy for Refractory Pemphigoid Gestationis: An Evidence-Based Systematic Review

, 2023
Pemphigoid gestationis (PG) is a rare inflammatory condition of pregnancy characterized by vesicobullous eruption and severe pruritus. It has been linked to maternal and fetal complications. Although use of biologics for refractory PG remains novel, this

Vaginal micronised progesterone for the prevention of hypertensive disorders of pregnancy: A systematic review and meta‐analysis

BJOG: An International Journal of Obstetrics &Gynaecology, Volume 131, Issue 6, Page 727-739, May 2024.
Abstract Background Treatment with vaginal progesterone reduces the risk of miscarriage and preterm birth in selected high‐risk women. The hypothesis that vaginal progesterone can reduce the risk of hypertensive disorders of pregnancy (HDP) is unexplored.

Bullous pemphigoid induced by IgG targeting type XVII collagen non‐NC16A/NC15A extracellular domains is driven by Fc gamma receptor‐ and complement‐mediated effector mechanisms and is ameliorated by neonatal Fc receptor blockade

The Journal of Pathology, Volume 262, Issue 2, Page 161-174, February 2024.
Abstract Bullous pemphigoid (BP) is an autoimmune blistering disease characterized by autoantibodies targeting type XVII collagen (Col17) with the noncollagenous 16A (NC16A) ectodomain representing the immunodominant site. The role of additional extracellular targets of Col17 outside NC16A has not been unequivocally demonstrated.

Pemphigoid Gestationis: A Rare Dermatosis of Pregnancy

, 2016
INTRODUCTION Pemphigoid gestationis is a rare dermatosis of pregnancy that often goes unrecognized or misdiagnosed. It can lead to adverse fetal outcomes including preterm delivery, low fetal birth weight, and even neonatal pemphigoid gestationis1.

The distribution of IgG subclasses in pemphigoid gestationis: PG factor is an IgG1 autoantibody

, 1989
Using monoclonal antibodies in immunofluorescence techniques, the subclass distribution of anti-basement membrane zone IgG antibodies was studied in the skin, placenta, and serum of patients with pemphigoid (herpes) gestationis.
