Article Synopsis
- Pemphigus vulgaris (PV) and pemphigus foliaceus (PF) are two autoimmune blistering diseases affecting different skin layers, with varying symptoms and target antigens.
- A study analyzed HLA-DRB1-DQB1 alleles in 66 non-Jewish patients and 101 controls, revealing significant associations between certain alleles and PV.
- The study suggests that the DRB1*0402 allele is a key factor in the development of pemphigus in Venezuelan patients, differing from findings in other populations regarding the DQB1*0302 allele.
