The impact of signaling pathways on the desmosome ultrastructure in pemphigus

IntroductionThe autoantibody-driven disease pemphigus vulgaris (PV) impairs desmosome adhesion in the epidermis. In desmosomes, the pemphigus autoantigens desmoglein 1 (Dsg1) and Dsg3 link adjacent cells. Dsgs are clustered by plaque proteins and linked to the keratin cytoskeleton by desmoplakin (Dp...
