Clinical significance of anti-desmoglein-1 and -3 circulating autoantibodies in Pemphigus Patients Measured by Area Index and Intensity Score.
Detection of anti-desmoglein-1 (anti-DSG-1) and anti-DSG-3 autoantibodies is widely used in the diagnosis of pemphigus. Two validated scoring systems, Pemphigus Disease Area Index (PDAI) and Autoimmune Bullous Skin Disorder Intensity Score (ABSIS), are used for the evaluation of clinical severity. The aim of this cross-sectional study was to interpret the titres of pemphigus autoantibodies in c...
متن کاملPathogenic activity of circulating anti-desmoglein-3 autoantibodies isolated from pemphigus vulgaris patients
INTRODUCTION There are scarce data on immunochemical properties of pemphigus antibodies detected in clinical remission in pemphigus vulgaris (PV) patients. The aim of the study was to compare biological activity of anti-Dsg3 autoantibodies purified from the sera of PV patients in active stage and in clinical remission. MATERIAL AND METHODS The effect of purified antibodies on expression of pr...

متن کاملEvaluation of anti-desmoglein-1 and anti-desmoglein-3 autoantibody titers in pemphigus patients at the time of the initial diagnosis and after clinical remission
It has been suggested that anti-desmoglein autoantibody titers could be helpful in follow-up and therapeutic management of pemphigus patients. However, there is no consensus regarding the relationship between anti-desmoglein autoantibody titers and clinical activity of pemphigus.The aim of our study was to evaluate if clinical remission of pemphigus relates to the presence of anti-desmoglein au...
متن کاملIgA pemphigus showing IgA antibodies to desmoglein 1 and 3
BACKGROUND IgA pemphigus is a rare autoimmune vesiculo-pustular skin disease. Only approximately 70 cases have been reported to date. We report a case of IgA pemphigus with IgA antibodies to desmoglein 1 (Dsg1) and desmoglein 3 (Dsg3). CASE REPORT We report the case of an 60-year-old man with intraepidermal neutrophilic IgA pemphigus with IgA antibodies to Dsg1 and Dsg3. Histologic examinatio...
