Abstract excerpt

Bullous pemphigoid, the most common autoimmune blistering disease in Western Europe and the USA is characterized by the presence of circulating and tissue-bound autoantibodies against the hemidesmosomal proteins BP230 and BP180/collagen XVII. After binding to their target antigens at the basement membrane of the dermal-epidermal junction these autoantibodies are thought to trigger an inflammatory cascade...
