Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Although DIF has been generally performed in DLE (as lupus band test) and BP, contrasting features has not been reported. In some patients with lupus erythematosus, who have autoantibodies for BP, it may be difficult to discriminate LE from BP. We studied DIF of lesional skins in 9 patients with DLE and 29 patients with BP and disclosed the difference between these 2 diseases. IgG deposition was significantly more frequent at the epidermal BMZ in the BP group than in the DLE group; however, IgA and IgM depositions were significantly more frequent at both the epidermal and follicular BMZs in the DLE group than in the BP group.
