[Modeling of pemphigus vulgaris in guinea pigs].

In 146 guinea pigs with body weight of 150-200 g pemphigus vulgaris (PV) was induced using screening techniques. The animals were injected with PV patients' IgG (IgGPV) and blister fluid (PVBF) with the PV patient mononuclears. Intraperitoneal administration of IgGPV caused dystrophy in epidermis of experimental animals while intracutaneous injection of PVBF resulted in balloon dystrophy.
