Superficial Dsg2 Expression Limits Epidermal Blister Formation Mediated by Pemphigus Foliaceus Antibodies and Exfoliative Toxins
Cell-cell adhesion mediated by desmosomes is crucial for maintaining proper epidermal structure and function, as evidenced by several severe and potentially fatal skin disorders involving impairment of desmosomal proteins. Pemphigus foliaceus (PF) and staphylococcal scalded skin syndrome (SSSS) are subcorneal blistering diseases resulting from loss of function of the desmosomal cadherin, desmog...
متن کاملRadioiodine as a possible triggering agent for pemphigus foliaceus
Pemphigus foliaceus (PF) is an autoimmune blistering disease presenting in endemic and sporadic forms. The typical presentation is recurrent shallow erosions in a seborrheic distribution. PF has also been found in association with autoimmune diseases such as autoimmune thyroid disease (e.g. toxic nodular goiter and Hashimoto’s thyroiditis). In some patients, PF appears to be triggered by radioi...
متن کاملDapsone as a second glucocorticoid-sparing agent in addition to azathioprine in treatment of pemphigus vulgaris
Background and aim: Pemphigus vulgaris is an autoimmune vesiculobullous disorder. Prior to the advent of glucocorticoid therapy, it was often fatal. Now its mortality and morbidity is due to highdose glucocorticoid complications rather than the disease itself. This study was aimed to determine the effect of dapsone as a second adjuvant in the treatment of pemphigus vulgaris.Materials and method...
متن کاملReversal of cardiac myocyte dysfunction as a unique mechanism of rescue by P2X4 receptors in cardiomyopathy.
Binary cardiac transgenic (Tg) overexpression of P2X(4) receptors (P2X(4)R) improved the survival of the cardiomyopathic calsequestrin (CSQ) mice. Here we studied the mechanism of rescue using binary P2X(4)R/CSQ Tg and CSQ Tg mice as models. Cellular and intact heart properties were determined by simultaneous sarcomere shortening (SS) and Ca(2+) transients in vitro and echocardiography in vivo....
متن کاملStrand invasion by HLTF as a mechanism for template switch in fork rescue
Stalling of replication forks at unrepaired DNA lesions can result in discontinuities opposite the damage in the newly synthesized DNA strand. Translesion synthesis or facilitating the copy from the newly synthesized strand of the sister duplex by template switching can overcome such discontinuities. During template switch, a new primer-template junction has to be formed and two mechanisms, inc...
