摘要: Abstract The hemidesmosome is a membrane-associated supramolecular dermal–epidermal complex linking the cytoskeleton of basal keratinocyte to structures within papillary dermis. Different components this have been identified as autoantigens in autoimmune bullous skin diseases. Some characterized at molecular level. Little known, however, about factors that initiate production autoantibodies. By histopathology, acquired diseases hemidesmosomes show subepidermal blisters and by direct immunofluorescence, linear deposits IgG, C3 or IgA junction. Bullous pemphigoid (BP) most common disease hemidesmosomes. Two proteins, BP180 BP230, primary targets autoantibodies BP. In addition, pemphigoid/herpes gestationis, lichen planus pemphigoides, cicatricial are an immune response BP180.
