Abstract
BACKGROUND Epidermolysis bullosa acquisita (EBA) is a rare pemphigoid disease involving autoantibodies to type VII collagen (COL7), a major structural component of anchoring fibrils. IgE autoantibodies to type XVII collagen (BP180) have been identified in bullous pemphigoid (BP), the prototype of pemphigoid diseases. Although the pathogenic relevance of IgG anti-COL7 has been investigated, that of IgE in EBA remains unclear. OBJECTIVES To reveal the presence and pathogenic relevance of IgE anti-COL7 in EBA. METHODS We examined IgE antibodies in 109 patients with EBA by indirect immunofluorescence (IIF) and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). RESULTS IIF with normal human skin revealed IgE reactivity in the basement membrane zone in 29 (26·6%) cases. To verify whether the IgE antibodies were specific to COL7, we performed IIF with 21 clearly positive cases and the skin of a patient with dystrophic EBA, which does not involve COL7. All cases showed negative results, indicating that IgE antibodies were specific to COL7. In a modified IgG COL7 ELISA for IgE, 16 (14·7%) cases were positive (three and 13 cases were negative and positive on IIF, respectively). We compared anti-COL7 IgG and IgE, and found a weak but significant correlation (r = 0·459, P < 0·001). EBA is clinically divided into a mechanobullous (MB; noninflammatory) type and an inflammatory (INF) type resembling BP. Of the IIF-positive cases, 11 of 30 (37%) had INF and nine of 48 (19%) had MB. CONCLUSIONS This study is the first to demonstrate the presence of circulating anti-COL7 IgE in patients with EBA, which may correlate with the clinical phenotype.

Abstract
BACKGROUND IgE autoantibodies are considered to be involved in the pathogenesis of bullous pemphigoid (BP), particularly inflammatory and erythematous phenotypes. OBJECTIVES To develop reliable enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays (ELISAs) for the detection of IgE autoantibodies to both BP180 and BP230 in BP sera, and to compare the ELISA results with clinical features. METHODS We used commercially available IgG ELISAs to develop IgE ELISAs for both BP180 and BP230. To determine the influence of excess amounts of IgG autoantibodies, all normal and BP sera were tested before and after IgG adsorption. The results of the IgE ELISAs were statistically compared with various ELISAs and various clinical parameters, including our own severity scores and BP phenotypes. RESULTS IgG adsorption generally showed no changes in sensitivity and specificity for IgE ELISAs, although slight cross-reactivity of anti-IgE secondary antibody to IgG and interference of excess amounts of IgG autoantibodies to IgE reactivity were suggested. IgE autoantibodies to BP180 were found in 21 of 36 BP sera and IgE autoantibodies to BP230 were found in 18 of 36 BP sera. The results of IgG and IgE ELISAs for both BP180 and BP230 were well correlated. IgG and IgE anti-BP180 antibodies correlated with disease activity but IgG and IgE anti-BP230 autoantibodies did not. IgE anti-BP230 autoantibodies correlated with nodular phenotype but not erythematous phenotype. CONCLUSIONS The results of this study indicated that IgE autoantibodies to both BP180 and BP230 are frequently detected in BP sera. IgE anti-BP180 autoantibodies seemed to be pathogenic, while an association between IgE autoantibodies and inflammatory BP phenotype was not indicated.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Intercellular IgA dermatosis (IAD) is a subset of autoimmune bullous disease exclusively with IgA antikeratinocyte cell-surface antibodies. The classification and pathogenesis of this condition are still obscure. OBJECTIVES To classify IAD and study its pathogenesis. METHODS From our cohort of 5402 cases of autoimmune bullous disease, we selected 49 cases of various types of intercellular IgA dermatosis (IAD) and 13 cases of classical subcorneal pustular dermatosis (SPD), for which sera and information were available. We studied these cases clinically and immunologically. RESULTS There were 17 SPD-type IAD, 12 intraepidermal neutrophilic IgA dermatosis (IEN)-type IAD, two IgA-pemphigus vegetans, four IgA-pemphigus foliaceus, six IgA-pemphigus vulgaris and eight unclassified IAD cases. There was no sex predominance, and the average age at disease onset was 45·9 years. Clinically, bullous and pustular skin lesions developed on various sites, particularly intertriginous areas. Histopathology showed intraepidermal blisters or pustules at the upper epidermis in the SPD-type and at the midepidermis in the IEN-type. Immunological studies revealed that direct immunofluorescence, indirect immunofluorescence of normal human skin and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays (ELISAs) of recombinant proteins of desmogleins and desmocollins frequently showed positive results, although no antigens were detected in many cases. All cases of classical SPD, which showed no positive immunological results, were indistinguishable clinically and histopathologically from SPD-type IAD. CONCLUSIONS The present study of the largest cohort of cases of IAD showed that the major subtypes are SPD and IEN, and that the combination of indirect immunofluorescence and ELISAs of desmogleins and desmocollins, in addition to direct immunofluorescence, was useful for the diagnosis of IAD and its subtypes.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Despite the established pathogenic role of anti-desmoglein (Dsg) antibodies in classical pemphigus, the significance of autoantibodies to another desmosomal cadherin, desmocollin (Dsc) is at present unknown. No consistent immunoassay for immunoglobulin (Ig) G autoantibodies to Dscs has been developed. OBJECTIVES The aim of this study was to develop reliable assays to detect anti-Dsc autoantibodies. METHODS We expressed soluble recombinant proteins (RPs) of human Dsc1-3 in mammalian cells and examined sera of various types of pemphigus, including 79 paraneoplastic pemphigus (PNP) sera, by novel enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays (ELISAs) using the RPs. We also performed ELISAs of Dsc baculoproteins and used the complementary DNA (cDNA) transfection method, and compared the results with those of mammalian ELISAs. RESULTS Through mammalian ELISAs, IgG autoantibodies to Dsc1, Dsc2 and Dsc3 were detected in 16.5%, 36.7% and 59.5% of PNP sera, respectively, and considerable numbers of pemphigus herpetiformis (PH) and pemphigus vegetans (PVeg) sera reacted strongly with Dsc1 and Dsc3. Mammalian ELISAs were highly specific and more sensitive than baculoprotein ELISAs or the cDNA transfection method. Several Dsc-positive sera, particularly PH sera, showed no reactivity with Dsgs. The reactivity of PNP serum and PVeg serum with Dscs was not abolished by pre-absorption with Dsg RPs. CONCLUSIONS The results of these novel ELISAs indicated that IgG anti-Dsc autoantibodies were frequently detected and potentially pathogenic in nonclassical pemphigus.

Abstract
Paraneoplastic pemphigus (PNP) is an autoimmune blistering disease associated with neoplasms, typically lymphoproliferative disorders. PNP is characterized clinically by painful erosive stomatitis and polymorphous skin lesions. Histopathological findings are also very varied, and include lichen planus-like and pemphigus-like changes. These polymorphic clinicopathological findings are probably due to the complex pathogenic mechanism, in which both cellular and humoral immunity are implicated. Eosinophilic spongiosis, although infrequent, can be found with pemphigus herpetiformis and bullous pemphigoid, although this association has not been established in PNP. The presence of autoantibodies against envoplakin and periplakin in PNP has been reported, but autoantibodies against desmocollins (Dscs) have been found in only a very few cases of PNP, probably due to the lack of studies on such associations. We report the first case, to our knowledge, of PNP with eosinophilic spongiosis as the initial histopathological finding, and presence of autoantibodies to Dsc2 and Dsc3.

Abstract
We have investigated the genetic basis for the Hp0 phenotype amongst 123 randomly selected Ghanaians. A total of 17 individuals were determined to be Hp0 phenotype, based on the classical method for Hp phenotyping of Hb-supplemented plasma. Out of the 17 Hp0 individuals, nine subjects were further classified as ahaptoglobinaemic and eight as hypohaptoglobinaemic by Western blots and double immunodiffusion. We identified three previously known base substitutions (A-55G, A-61C and T-104A) and three new ones (C-101G, T-191G and C-242T) within the 5' flanking region of the Hp gene. The A-61C base substitution significantly decreased transcriptional activity and was associated strongly with Hp2 allele and ahaptoglobinaemia. The C-101G substitution was similar in transcriptional activity to the wild-type and was associated with Hp1S allele and hypohaptoglobinaemia. The Hpdel allele seen in Asian populations was absent. We conclude that the Hp0 phenotype in Ghana has a genetic basis that differs significantly from that seen in Asia.
