Abstract
The many clinical aspects of anti-p200 pemphigoid are not well-characterized. We aimed to analyze and correlate known existing data on the epidemiological, clinical, histological, and immunological features of anti-p200 pemphigoid. We performed a review using Medline, Embase, and Web of Science databases (1900–2018). Case reports and series of patients were included. A total of 68 eligible studies that comprised 113 anti-p200 pemphigoid patients were included in the qualitative analysis, where there was a mean age of onset of 65.5 years. All patients presented with bullae/vesicles, and 54.3% had urticarial plaques. A similarity to bullous pemphigoid was reported in 66.1% of cases, but palmoplantar (51.4%), cephalic (40.3%), and mucosal (38.5%) involvement, besides frequent development of scars/milia (15.7%), were reported. Autoantibodies against recombinant laminin γ1 were detected in the sera of 73.1% of patients. Psoriasis was present in 28.3% of anti-p200 pemphigoid patients, particularly among Japanese patients (56.4%). The incidence of pustular psoriasis in this subgroup, was significantly greater than in the normal population. In conclusion, the diagnosis of anti-p200 pemphigoid may be suspected when a subepidermal autoimmune blistering disease develops in a younger age group, along with significant acral and cephalic distribution and mucosal involvement.

Abstract
Generalized pustular psoriasis (GPP) is a rare disease characterized by recurrent fever and systemic flushing accompanied by extensive sterile pustules. The committee of the guidelines was founded as a collaborative project between the Japanese Dermatological Association and the Study Group for Rare Intractable Skin Diseases under the Ministry of Health, Labour, and Welfare Research Project on Overcoming Intractable Diseases. The aim of the guidelines was to provide current information to aid in the treatment of patients with GPP in Japan. Its contents include the diagnostic and severity classification criteria for GPP, its pathogenesis, and recommendations for the treatment of GPP. Since there are few clinical trial data with high levels of evidence for this rare disease, recommendations by the committee are described in the present guidelines.

Abstract
Autoimmune blistering diseases are characterized by autoantibodies against structural adhesion proteins of the skin and mucous membranes. Extensive characterization of their autoantibody targets has improved understanding of pathogenesis and laid the basis for the study of antigens/epitopes diversification, a process termed epitope spreading (ES). In this review, we have reported and discussed ES phenomena in autoimmune bullous diseases and underlined their functional role in disease pathogenesis. A functional ES has been proposed: (1) in bullous pemphigoid patients and correlates with the initial phase of the disease, (2) in pemphigus vulgaris patients with mucosal involvement during the clinical transition to a mucocutaneous form, (3) in endemic pemphigus foliaceus, underlining its role in disease pathogenesis, and (4) in numerous cases of disease transition associated with an intermolecular diversification of immune response. All these findings could give useful information to better understand autoimmune disease pathogenesis and to design antigen/epitope specific therapeutic approaches.

Abstract
A 65-year-old woman had a history of deep vein thrombosis and depression. Psoriasis was diagnosed in 1986 and various topical and systemic therapies, singly or in combination, were prescribed: tar, topical corticosteroids, cyclosporine, etretinate, and methotrexate. Two courses of oral and one course of bath psoralen plus UVA (PUVA) therapy (cumulative dose, 467 J/cm(2)) and UVB (2.96 J/cm(2)) had been given. In January 1999, she developed a flare of generalized psoriasis. In May 1999, therapy with PUVA (8-methoxypsoralen) plus topical acetonide triamcinolone 0.1% was initiated. At the time, she was taking acenocoumarol, lorazepam, and hydroxyzine chlorhydrate. In August 1999, at session 30, when the dose of UVA was 9 J/cm(2), and the total dose was 205 J/cm(2), a bulla appeared on the dorsum of the toe and was controlled with topical antibiotics. Five further sessions of PUVA were given and a generalized itching bullous eruption appeared all over the body. PUVA was stopped and the patient was hospitalized. On physical examination, extensive psoriatic plaques plus vesicles and bullae on the normal skin and on psoriatic lesions were observed all over the body (Fig. 1). Histopathologic study of a lesion showed a subepidermal vesicle containing fibrin, neutrophils, and a few eosinophils. No sunburn cells were observed (Fig. 2). The direct immunofluorescence (DIF) test of perilesional uninvolved skin revealed immunoglobulin G (IgG) (Fig. 3) and C3 at the dermal-epidermal junction. The DIF study using the patient's skin, previously treated with 1 m NaCl, localized the IgG at both the epidermal and dermal sides of the basement membrane zone (Fig. 4). Bullous pemphigoid (BP) was diagnosed and therapy with prednisone (60 mg/day) was started. The disease was well controlled in 3 weeks. The dose of prednisone was tapered and stopped 20 months later, without any recurrence. Study of the antibodies by the indirect immunofluorescence (IIF) test, using monkey esophagus and guinea pig as substrate, was positive at a titer of 1/160 in September 1999. The titer decreased to 1/10 in January 2000, and was negative in July 2000. An enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) test, performed using the commercial kit MBL, which identifies antibodies directed against epitopes of the extracellular fragment NC16 of antigen 2 of BP, was positive at 15 U/mL (normal value, < 9 U/mL) in September 1999, and negative in July 2000 (Table 1).

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Presuming that psoriasis is an autoimmune skin disease, the aim of this study was to establish its association with other autoimmune skin diseases. The material was obtained at the Dermatovenereological Clinic--Clinical Center Novi Sad. MATERIAL AND METHODS This 10-year retrospective study (1990-1999) included 1743 psoriasis patients. The control group consisted of 7492 nonpsoriatic dermatological patients. RESULTS Association of psoriasis with other dermatological diseases of autoimmune nature has been established in 13 (0.74%) patients. The most frequent association was with lichen ruber planus in five patients, with alopecia areata and vitiligo in three patients, and in one with bullous pemphigoid and herpetiform dermatitis. Using Fisher's test no significant association was established. DISCUSSION AND CONCLUSION According to literature data association of psoriasis with other autoimmune diseases is well known, but rare, which is in accordance with our results. The question arises whether this association is the matter of poor coexistence or the matter of genetic mutations. However, once established, these associations can further highlight the autoimmune nature of psoriasis. The research of autoimmunity would lead us to epithelial cells in thymus, and their badly learnt cognitive function about what is own, and what is not.
