Article Synopsis
- Pemphigus is a rare autoimmune disease that severely affects the skin and mucous membranes, leading to high morbidity and mortality.
- The study focused on the associations of specific HLA class II polymorphisms (HLA-DRB1 and HLA-DQB1) with pemphigus vulgaris (PV) and pemphigus foliaceus (PF) in Vietnamese patients.
- Results showed that certain alleles (HLA-DRB1∗14:54, HLA-DQB1∗03:02, and HLA-DQB1∗05:03) are more common in PV and PF patients and may help predict disease severity, with some alleles linked to milder forms of the disease.
