متن کاملSerum protein carbonyl and total antioxidant capacity levels in pemphigus vulgaris and bullous pemphigoid
Background: Pemphigus diseases including pemphigus vulgaris (PV) and bullous pemphigoid (BP) are autoimmune diseases that cause severe blistering of the skin and mucous membranes. Among inflammatory mediators, reactive oxygen species (ROS) are involved in the pathogenesis of a wide variety of diseases through oxidative stress for which protein carbonyl (PC) and total antioxidant capacity (TAC) ...

متن کاملBullous Pemphigoid, Mucous Membrane Pemphigoid and Pemphigus Vulgaris: An Update on Pathobiology
Pemphigoid and pemphigus vulgaris (PV) are autoimmune diseases that cause potentially debilitating erosions and blistering of the skin and/or mucous membranes. In bullous pemphigoid (BP), autoantibodies target components of the basement membrane zone (BMZ), most importantly the hemidesmosomal proteins, BP180 and BP230. Research efforts have uncovered some of the complex mechanisms that cause th...
متن کاملThe complement system in bullous pemphigoid. I. Complement and component levels in sera and blister fluids.
Compared with other serum and blister fluid proteins, total hemolytic complement was reduced in the blister fluid of six serologically positive bullous pemphigold patients while four serologically negative cases had blister fluid complement levels closely approaching the serum levels. Except for pemphigus vulgaris blisters. blister fluids from most patients with other bullous diseases and exper...
