Immunoblot results showed that of 17 HP serum samples, only 5 reacted with a 160-kd band and 1 reacted with a 130-kd band. Kikuchi Furthermore, immunoadsorption study results excluded a possibility that there are any autoantibodies reacting with molecules on keratinocyte cell surfaces other than Dsg1 or Dsg3 in 19 of 20 HP serum samples. Of 20 HP serum samples tested, 16 showed positive reactivity against Dsg1 ELISA, 4 showed positive reactivity against Dsg3 ELISA, and none reacted with both (Table 1).  RW Acantholytic herpetiform dermatitis. Allow the blood to clot at room temperature (20-25° C) and separate as soon as possible to limit hemolysis.  PThomine They are characterized by formation of autoantibodies against structural proteins of the skin. Based on its clinical features, some researchers8,9 reported the disease as a distinct entity and consider it to be different from classic pemphigus because of its clinical peculiarity and benign course. Schiltz By immunoblotting and immunoprecipitation, autoantigens of PF and PV have been demonstrated to be 160- and 130-kd glycoproteins, respectively.1 Results of complementary DNA cloning of both molecules revealed that the target molecules of PF and PV are desmoglein (Dsg) 1 and Dsg3, respectively, which locate in desmosomes.2,3, Herpetiform pemphigus (HP) was first introduced by Jablonska and colleagues4 as a variant of pemphigus for a patient with clinical features of dermatitis herpetiformis and immunologic features of pemphigus.  CGMaruta  PJNishikawa Desmoglein 1 (Desmoglein 1, DSG1) Short Description: Component of intercellular desmosome junctions. Desmoglein 3 is most highly expressed in the basal layers of the epidermis, while desmoglein 1 is expressed in the differentiated suprabasal layers (Kottke et al., 2006). No serum samples reacted with both. (1997) showed that mutation in mouse desmoglein-3 is responsible for the naturally occurring mouse phenotype, 'balding.' Results are given at 1:40 dilution of the patient's serum sample. Cutoff values of Dsg1 and Dsg3 ELISAs were defined as 14.1 and 15.4 index, respectively.23.

To determine the cell surface autoimmune target of herpetiform pemphigus (HP). This finding indicates that most HP serum samples possess only antibodies against the extracellular domain of Dsg1 or Dsg3 and no other antibodies against components of keratinocyte cell surfaces other than Dsg1 or Dsg3.  TWang Design   FJGeds. To date, sporadic reports indicate that patients with HP have circulating autoantibodies against Dsg1 or Dsg3, as determined by immunoblotting or immunoprecipitation. In humans, this protein is encoded by the gene DSG1. Several sporadic studies characterize the target antigens of HP by immunochemical analyses such as immunoblotting or immunoprecipitation. All Rights Reserved. Serum samples of HP were examined by immunoblot studies with human epidermal extracts, enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay with baculovirus-expressed recombinant desmoglein (rDsg) 1 and rDsg3, and immunoadsorption assay with rDsg. Only Pathology reports available online. … The anti-desmoglein 1-4 sample set provides antibodies directed against Desmoglein 1, 2, 3 and 4 to evaluate their presence and status in IHC and WB. In contrast, the ELISA system with rDsg1 and rDsg3 expressed by baculovirus detects autoantibodies against conformational epitopes on Dsg1 or Dsg3. Desmoglein 3 (Dsg3), also known as Cadherin family member 6 (CDHF6), is a member of the desmosomal cadherin family and plays a critical role in cell-cell adhesion. 2 mL (1 mL min.) Anti-Desmoglein 1 antibodies are available from several suppliers. Terms of Use| Jablonska 1. All serum samples showed positive staining against keratinocyte cell surfaces by indirect immunofluorescence studies with healthy human skin. Avoid using sera exhibiting a high level of lipemia, hemolysis, icterus or microbial growth. A case of herpetiform pemphigus associated with autoimmune hemolytic anemia: detection of autoantibodies against multiple epidermal antigens. These conditions may cause aberrant test results.  JLEbling Only 1 serum sample recognized a 130-kd polypeptide, which comigrated with the band recognized by PV sera (Table 1).  SChorzelski serum from 1 SST. However, these antibodies may be sufficient to cause some inflammatory processes through complement or induction of cytokine release by keratinocytes, leading to intercellular edema and eosinophilic spongiosis. Anhalt In 19 of 20 HP serum samples examined, immunoreactivity against keratinocyte cell surfaces was completely removed by preincubation with a mixture of rDsg3 and rDsg1 baculoproteins, whereas control medium did not change the immunoreactivity (Table 1 and Figure 2). Methods: Seventy-eight cases of head and neck squamous cell carcinoma were immunohistochemically stained for desmoglein 1, desmoglein 2, desmoglein 3, p53, bcl-2, vimentin, cyclin D1, p16, p21, p27, E-cadherin, and E2F-1 … After incubation at 4°C overnight, the diluted serum samples were subjected to indirect immunofluorescence on cryosectioned healthy human skin using 1:100 dilution of fluorescein isothiocyanate–conjugated antihuman IgG antibodies (Dako, Copenhagen, Denmark).  TFDiaz  K Development of ELISAs with recombinant pemphigus antigens expressed by baculovirus. Patients   TOgawa  RSVoorhees Human desmocollin (Dsc1) is an autoantigen for the subcorneal pustular dermatosis type of IgA pemphigus. 2007 Nov;21(10):1319-24.  CWAoki  TNishikawa We demonstrated that HP serum samples contain IgG against either Dsg1 or Dsg3 and that in most HP serum samples there were no antibodies directed against cell surface molecules other than Dsg1 or Dsg3. Direct immunofluorescence stainings revealed the deposition of IgG on keratinocyte cell surfaces in all samples. Pemphigus controlled by sulphapyridine. 1. However, others described it as a variant of PF10 or PV.11. Four HP serum samples showed slightly higher OD values compared with those of control serum samples (samples 5 and 6 for Dsg1 ELISA and samples 18 and 19 for Dsg3 ELISA). Reactivity of IgA-class antibodies was indicated with OD and compared with those of control serum samples. IMMUNOADSORPTION ASSAYS WITH rDsg1 AND rDsg3 BACULOPROTEINS, HP SERA DO NOT CONTAIN IgG AGAINST CELL SURFACE MOLECULES OTHER THAN Dsg1 OR Dsg3. A herpetiform pemphigus serum sample (sample 2 in Table 1) was incubated with control solution without baculoproteins (top) or a mixture of rDsg1 and rDsg3 baculoproteins (bottom) and subjected to immunofluorescence staining on healthy human skin. First, IgG fractions prepared from patients with PF and PV can induce blisters in skin organ culture and in neonatal mice.25-27 Second, removal of anti-Dsg1 or anti-Dsg3 autoantibodies from PF or PV sera, respectively, abolished the ability of the sera to induce blister formation in neonatal mice.18,19 Third, Dsg1 and Dsg3 are expressed in the epidermis, where blister formation occurs in PF and PV, respectively.21 At present, the distinct pathophysiological events responsible for these differences are unknown. The desmoglein plays an important part in the formation of desmosomes. Furthermore, in 19 of 20 HP serum samples, immunoreactivity against keratinocyte cell surfaces was completely removed by preincubation with rDsg1 and rDsg3 as shown by indirect immunofluorescence, excluding a possibility that these HP sera contain autoantibodies against other cell surface molecules. The set contains enough antibody to perform … In immunoblotting, the antigen sources are denatured by heating and sodium dodecyl sulfate. Ingber Barranco In Pemphigus disease the blisters are formed intraepidermally whereas in Bullous autoimmune dermatoses they occur subepidermally. However, the meaning of reactivities against Dsg1 and Dsg3 was unclear because indirect immunofluorescence showed no staining on keratinocyte cell surfaces for IgA antibodies (data not shown). Dsg1 and Dsg3 are the major cell surface target molecules of HP, suggesting that most cases of HP are clinical variants of pemphigus foliaceus and that the rest might be variants of pemphigus vulgaris. Immunofluorescence staining of this serum showed a unique pattern with coarse dotlike staining along the cell-cell contact sites (data not shown), which favors the former possibility. Amagai Some studies12-14 claimed that HP sera recognized the 160-kd Dsg1, and another15 claimed that HP serum recognized the 130-kd Dsg3. However, it can be speculated that the phenotype differences may be caused by differences of epitopes recognized by autoantibodies. The ELISA analysis demonstrated that of 20 HP serum samples, 16 had anti-Dsg1 IgG autoantibodies and 4 had anti-Dsg3 IgG autoantibodies. Scores on ELISA against Dsg1 and Dsg3 were obtained as previously reported with a slight modification.  NNishikawa Serum samples of HP were examined by immunoblot studies with human epidermal extracts, enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay with baculovirus-expressed recombinant desmoglein (rDsg) 1 and rDsg3, and immunoadsorption assay with rDsg.  et al.

Characterization of autoantibodies in pemphigus using antigen-specific enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays with baculovirus-expressed recombinant desmogleins. Desmoglein-1 is a calcium-binding transmembrane glycoprotein component of desmosomes in vertebrate epithelial cells. The absorbance was measured at 450 nm by an ELISA reader (Bio-Rad Laboratories, Hercules, Calif). A more intriguing question is why the clinical presentations of HP and classic pemphigus are so different despite the common presence of anti-Dsg1 or anti-Dsg3 IgG autoantibodies. The immunoreactivity against keratinocyte cell surfaces at 1:40 dilution of serum samples was judged for immunoadsorption assay. Serum samples were obtained from 20 patients with HP whose clinical manifestations resemble those of dermatitis herpetiformis in the form of the eruption, its symmetrical distribution, and pruritus. doi:10.1001/archderm.135.8.943.  KShafran Involved in the interaction of plaque proteins and intermediate filaments mediating cell-cell … In this study, we simplified the calculation procedure and used an index value. Herpetiform pemphigus showing reactivity with pemphigus vulgaris antigen (desmoglein 3).  TPBeutner A cutoff value was defined as the average value +3 SDs of 47 control serum samples. Furthermore, in 19 of 20 HP serum samples, immunoreactivity against keratinocyte cell surfaces was completely removed by preincubation with rDsg1 and rDsg3 as shown by indirect immunofluorescence, excluding a possibility that these HP sera contain autoantibodies against other cell surface molecules. Amagai Bar represents 50 µm. Toxin in bullous impetigo and staphylococcal scalded-skin syndrome targets desmoglein 1. These antibodies bind to calcium dependent adhesion molecules in cell surface desmosomes, notably desmoglein 1(DSG-1) in pemphigus foliaceus and desmoglein 3 (DSG-3) in pemphigus vulgaris.  MHall  et al.  TP Is pemphigus herpetiformis an entity? When the immunoreactivity was not removed even after preincubation with rDsg1 and rDsg3, it indicates that they contain antibodies against the cytoplasmic domain of Dsg1 or Dsg3 or other components of keratinocyte cell surfaces. Immunoblotting was performed as previously reported.22 EDTA-separated healthy human epidermal extracts were used as the source of antigens. Aseptically collect 5-8 mL of blood by approved venipuncture procedures. The pathogenic role of anti-Dsg1 or anti-Dsg3 IgG autoantibodies in PF and PV is established.  TShiotani Thiopronine-induced herpetiform pemphigus: report of a case studied by immunoelectron microscopy and immunoblot analysis. Desmoglein-3 (Dsg3) was first identified as a pemphigus vulgaris antigen (PVA) from the human keratinocyte expression libraries in 1991 by Amagai et al. Kubo All Rights Reserved.  MKlaus-Kovtun  RJ As a target antigen, we focused on Dsg1 and Dsg3, which are the autoantigens of PF and PV, respectively. Amagai et al21 also developed an immunoadsorption assay using these recombinant proteins to determine whether there are antibodies against molecules other than Dsg1 or Dsg3. Ishii In the previous ELISA, 3 serial dilutions of test serum samples and 8 serial dilutions of a standard serum sample had to be made each time to calculate reaction unit.

Dsg1 and Dsg3 are the major cell surface target molecules of HP, suggesting that most cases of HP are clinical variants of pemphigus foliaceus and that the rest might be variants of pemphigus vulgaris. Therefore, immunoblotting cannot detect autoantibodies against the conformationally sensitive epitope. The pemphigus diseases are caused by pathogenic autoantibodies against desmoglein 1 and desmoglein 3, two adhesion proteins found in keratinocytes. Desmoglein proteins are a type of cadherin, which is a transmembrane protein that binds with other cadherins to form junctions known as desmosomes between cells.

To further determine whether HP serum samples possess antibodies against other components of keratinocyte cell surfaces, an immunoadsorption assay was performed. Desmoglein-3 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the DSG3 gene. Left, Multiple erythematous, urticarial plaques on the back.  EHChorselska It consists of erythematous papules, urticarial-like plaques, or vesicles. Stanley Desmoglein 3 is most highly expressed in the basal layers of the epidermis, while desmoglein 1 is expressed in the differentiated suprabasal layers (Kottke et al., 2006). Ishii K, Amagai M, Komai A, et al. However, a large-scale study has not been done to determine the autoimmune target for HP. No serum samples reacted with both. Histological pictures of HP include eosinophilic spongiosis and subcorneal pustules with minimal or no apparent acantholysis, whereas, in PF and PV, acantholysis caused by loss of cell adhesion of keratinocytes is the major histological finding.  T Mixed bullous disease. Objective  Herpetiform pemphigus is a unique form of pemphigus that clinically resembles dermatitis herpetiformis—an IgA-mediated disease—and immunologically has a feature of pemphigus—circulating and in vivo bound IgG autoantibodies against keratinocyte cell surfaces. Santi The index was calculated as follows: index=(OD [optical density] of tested serum−OD of negative control)/(OD of positive control serum−OD of negative control)×100.

Overnight fasting is preferred. Twenty serum samples were obtained from patients with HP who have typical clinical and histological features. Alternatively, this sample may have autoantibodies against the cytoplasmic portion of Dsg1 or Dsg3 because the recombinant proteins used for ELISA and immunoadsorption assay represent only the extracellular domains. In the skin epidermis Desmoglein-3 is expressed in the basal lower layers of the epidermis, and dominates in terms of expression on mucosal surfaces compared to Desmoglein-1.  LA Induction of pemphigus in neonatal mice by passive transfer of IgG from patients with the disease.  SHashimoto Background: Desmoglein-3. Immunoadsorption assays with recombinant desmoglein (rDsg) 1 and rDsg3 baculoproteins. In contrast, autoantibodies in HP may recognize a functionally less important part of the molecule and therefore are not able to induce loss of cell adhesion. Oral membrane lesions were involved in some patients. J Am Dermatol 1999 Feb;40(2 Pt 1):167-170 2. The fact that several patients with HP show features of PF or PV in the course of the disease, or that some patients with HP evolved into having PF or PV, suggests that HP is closely related to PF and PV.8,14 Taking these together, we conclude that HP is a clinical and histological variant of PF or PV.
