Abstract

Bullous pemphigoid (BP) is the most common autoimmune subepidermal blistering disease of the skin. Investigation of the BP-associated pathophysiological processes during the last decades showed that the generation of autoantibodies directed against the hemidesmosome proteins BP180 and BP230, a hallmark of the BP-associated autoimmune response, leads to the recruitment of inflammatory immune cells at the dermal-epidermal junction, and subsequently to the release of a large amount of inflammatory molecules involved in blister formation. Analysis in transversal and longitudinal studies of autoantibodies and inflammatory molecules production both at the time of diagnosis and under treatment was mainly performed within the serum but also in the blister fluid. Some autoimmune or inflammatory molecules expression was related to the presence of clinical signs, while others were mere bystanders. In this review, we focused on the autoimmune and inflammatory molecules that have been identified as potential biomarkers of BP development and outcome.

Autoimmune Diseases

Autoimmune diseases occur as a result of an attack by the immune system on the body’s own tissues resulting in damage and dysfunction. There are different types of autoimmune diseases, in which there is a complex and unknown interaction between genetics and the environment. Discover the latest research on autoimmune diseases here.
