Dermatitis herpetiformis.
Dermatitis herpetiformis (DH) is an autoimmune, pleiomorphic, papulovesicular disorder associated with celiac disease and gluten sensitivity. DH is characterized by subepidermal bullae on hematoxylin and eosin staining and granular immunoglobulin A deposits in the dermal papillae using the direct immunofluorescence method. Antibodies to tissue transglutaminase and epidermal transgulatminase can...
متن کاملDermatitis herpetiformis.
Dermatitis herpetiformis (DH), described over 100 years ago, is a life-long blistering skin disease that can appear at any age. Dapsone controls the rash effectively and has been used for over 50 years in the treatment of DH. Major landmark in the research of DH was 30 years ago the discovery of granular IgA deposits in the upper papillary dermis,1 and further differentiation of an autoimmune d...
متن کاملSmall intestinal function and dietary status in dermatitis herpetiformis.
Small intestinal morphology and function were assessed in 82 patients with dermatitis herpetiformis, 51 of whom were taking a normal diet and 31 a gluten free diet. Methods used were histopathological evaluation of jejunal mucosal biopsy specimens, quantitation of intraepithelial lymphocytes, cellobiose/mannitol permeability test, tissue disaccharidase values, serum antigliadin antibodies, and ...
متن کاملDermatitis herpetiformis and vitiligo.
Dermatitis herpetiformis (DH) is a rare immunobullous disorder of the skin that is associated with gluten hypersensitivity. Subepidermal IgA-type antibody deposition against tissue transglutaminase leads to dense neutrophilic microabscess and eventually into vesicles in dermal papillae, which may occasionally merge into bullae. Being a subepidermal vesiculobullous disorder, DH is frequently ass...
متن کاملSmall bowel transglutaminase 2-specific IgA deposits in dermatitis herpetiformis.
Dermatitis herpetiformis (DH) is an extraintestinal manifestation of coeliac disease. Untreated coeliac disease patients are known to have transglutaminase 2 (TG2)-targeted IgA deposits in the small bowel mucosa. To evaluate whether similar intestinal IgA deposits are also present in DH and whether the deposits disappear with gluten-free diet, 47 untreated and 27 treated DH patients were studie...
