Subunit-Specific Reactivity of Autoantibodies Against Laminin-332 Reveals Direct Inflammatory Mechanisms on Keratinocytes

Laminin-332 pemphigoid is a rare and severe autoimmune blistering disease, caused by IgG autoantibodies targeting laminin-332 in the dermal-epidermal basement zone. Laminin-332 pemphigoid is characterized by variable inflammatory infiltrate and the predominance of non-complement-fixing antibodies. G...

Subunit-Specific Reactivity of Autoantibodies Against Laminin-332 Reveals Direct Inflammatory Mechanisms on Keratinocytes
description Laminin-332 pemphigoid is a rare and severe autoimmune blistering disease, caused by IgG autoantibodies targeting laminin-332 in the dermal-epidermal basement zone.
