Metals and metalloids as binding antigens in a new variant of endemic pemphigus in El Bagre, Colombia, South America

2024-05-09

Abstract excerpt

<title>Abstract</title> <p>We have previously described an autoimmune orphan disease, a new variant of endemic pemphigus in El Bagre, Colombia. The disease is present in a geological area most rich in polluting metals and metalloids and specifically contaminated by mercury and cyanide widely used for gold and other metals mining. Our aim was to identify potential metal-binding sequences in the canonical antigenic...
