INTRODUCTION Paraneoplastic pemphigus is an autoimmune disease associated with an underlying tumor. Several cases have been reported as unusual pemphigus vulgaris, erythema multiforme, or paraneoplastic bullous disease, but the incidence of the condition is unknown. Response to treatment is generally poor, with significant morbidity and mortality. This condition is clinically characterized by s...
Pemphigus vulgaris is an autoimmune and rare mucocutaneous disease with outbreak of 1 to 5 patients per 1 million people. The average age at onset of disease is usually 50 years. In this study four young females (mean age: 27.75 years) with pemphigus vulgaris are presented. The first patient was a 28-year-old female complaining from various oral sores. She was diagnosed with pemphigus vulgar...
Dsg: desmoglein H&E: hematoxylin-eosin IL: interleukin PH: pemphigus herpetiformis INTRODUCTION Pemphigus herpetiformis (PH) is a rare variant of pemphigus and accounts for approximately 7% of cases. PH combines the clinical features of dermatitis herpetiformis with the histologic features of pemphigus. Clinically, the plaques are herpetiform or even annular. PH follows a more benign course wit...
The Pemphigus vulgaris (PV) is a group of highly lethal autoimmune disease characterized by mucocutaneous erosions or blisters. Pemphigus vulgaris can be present in different forms like oral and topical. So, it is challenging to manage and treat. Mortality rate due to Pemphigus vulgaris can be decreased by using systemic corticosteroids, but the present treatment options are limited due to the ...
To the Editor: Pemphigus foliaceus (PF) is a chronic autoimmune blistering disease caused by pathogenic serum autoantibodies against desmoglein 1. Initial treatments for PF include systemic corticosteroids, immunosuppressants, and dapsone.1 Rituximab, chimeric monoclonal antibody specific to CD20 molecule on B cells, was shown be effective severe refractory cases of pemphigus in meta-analysis.2...
Pemphigus is a group of human autoimmune blistering diseases of the skin in which autoantibodies to desmosome cadherins induce loss of cell-cell adhesion (acantholysis). In addition to steric hindrance and activation of intracellular signaling, apoptosis has been suggested to contribute to the mechanism by which pathogenic IgG induces acantholysis. We review the current literature examining the...
A case of pemphigus triggered by glibenclamide and cilazapril is described. The suspicion of drug induction was confirmed in a laboratory study in which a pemphigus-like effect was induced by glibenclamide in cultured human skin explants. Withdrawal of the drugs and their replacement by hydrochlorothiazide and metformin resulted in subsidence of the lesions and no appearance of new lesions. The...
Systemic corticosteroids are the treatment of choice for pemphigus vulgaris. Immunosuppressive agent (azathioprine, cyclophosphamide) could be added for patients with severe disease that cannot be controlled by corticosteroids alone or to reduce the dose of corticosteroids.[5] However, immunosuppressants continue to have the complications of systemic infections. Successful use of rituximab ther...
Dermatologic disorders frequently parallel with oral involvement which dental practitioners should be familiar with. In continuation with part II, the immunofluorescence patterns in the intraepidermal pemphigus group and its variants: Pemphigus vulgaris (PV) and paraneoplastic pemphigus (PNP) are dealt in this section. Also, a brief note is added on other mucocutaneous disorders showing similar...
Pemphigus is a life-threatening autoimmune blistering disease. Systemic corticosteroids have been the mainstay and first-line treatment with success. However, longterm use of corticosteroids results in significant morbidities and mortalities. Much effort has been focused on searching alternative or corticosteroids-sparing agents. Rituximab (MabTheraTM; Roche, Basle, Switzerland), a chimeric ant...
