Abstract

To determine the prevalence, immunoglobulin subclass distribution, and clinical correlation of antibodies (Abs), especially of IgE Abs, to BP180 and BP230 in patients with bullous pemphigoid (BP). Retrospective case series analysis. Department of Dermatology, Nagasaki University Graduate School of Biomedical Science. Serum samples from 37 patients with BP, 6 with pemphigus vulgaris, 5 with pemphigus foliaceus, and 26 healthy controls (n = 26) were examined by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. Prevalence, immunoglobulin subclass distribution, and clinical correlation of Abs, especially of IgE Abs, to BP180 and BP230. IgG anti-BP180 and anti-BP230 Abs were detected in 35 (95%) and 26 (70%) of the 37 BP serum samples, respectively. IgG1 and IgG4 isotypes were positive in 32 (87%) and 25 (68%), respectively, of the BP serum samples for anti-BP180 Abs, while they were detected in 16 (44%) and 26 (70%), respectively, for anti-BP230 Abs. IgE anti-BP180 and anti-BP230 Abs were equally detected in 8 (22%) of the BP serum samples. Similar to IgG anti-BP180 Abs, the presence or levels of IgE anti-BP180 Abs was associated with broader skin lesions. Furthermore, patients with BP positive for IgE anti-BP180 Abs required longer duration for ...Continue Reading

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.
