Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Pemphigus is an autoimmune blistering disease of skin and oral mucosa. The all of patients with pemphigus vulgaris have a blister in oral mucosa. Many of cases, pathogenic activity of the autoantibody correlate with clinical phenotype of the pemphigus, and it is confirmed their correlation. However, there are many cases that severity of clinical phenotype does not correlate with antibody titers. Therefore, we tried to develop a novel system to measure the pathogenic activity of the pemphigus autoantibody in this study.
