Bullous pemphigoid (BP) is a debilitating autoimmune skin blistering disease, characterized by the deposition of specific autoantibodies at the dermal-epidermal junction.

Pemphigus is a group of autoimmune bullous diseases mediated by autoantibodies most often of the immunoglobulin G class, subclasses immunoglobulin G1, and immunoglobulin G4 (IgG4), directed against desmosomal adhesion proteins of keratinocytes. This study aimed to evaluate IgG4 immunoreactivity on paraffin sections using immunohistochemistry in patients with pemphigus as a diagnostic test. Fifty formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded specimens from patients with pemphigus were selected.
