Inhibition of toxic epidermal necrolysis by blockade of CD95 with human intravenous immunoglobulin.
Toxic epidermal necrolysis (TEN, Lyell's syndrome) is a severe adverse drug reaction in which keratinocytes die and large sections of epidermis separate from the dermis. Keratinocytes normally… Expand

Monocyte Selectivity and Tissue Localization Suggests a Role for Breast and Kidney–Expressed Chemokine (Brak) in Macrophage Development
Although numerous chemokines act on monocytes, none of them is specific for these cells. Here, we show that breast and kidney–expressed chemokine (BRAK) is a highly selective monocyte… Expand

Pemphigus vulgaris identifies plakoglobin as key suppressor of c‐Myc in the skin
The autoimmune disease pemphigus vulgaris (PV) manifests as loss of keratinocyte cohesion triggered by autoantibody binding to desmoglein (Dsg)3, an intercellular adhesion molecule of mucous… Expand

Activation of drug-specific CD4+ and CD8+ T cells in individuals allergic to sulfonamides, phenytoin, and carbamazepine.
To investigate how T cells are involved in hypersensitivity reactions to drugs that become immunogenic after metabolization, e.g., sulfonamides and antiepileptics, we analyzed in vitro the… Expand

Treatment of toxic epidermal necrolysis with high-dose intravenous immunoglobulins: multicenter retrospective analysis of 48 consecutive cases.
OBJECTIVE To evaluate the effect of high-dose intravenous immunoglobulin (IVIG) in toxic epidermal necrolysis (TEN), parameters that may affect response to treatment, and the effect of different IVIG… Expand

Intravenously applied IgG stimulates complement attenuation in a complement-dependent autoimmune disease at the amplifying C3 convertase level.
Intravenously applied normal human immunoglobulin G (IgG) has anti-inflammatory effects in the treatment of autoimmune diseases. Systemic inflammation can originate from an overreacting amplification… Expand

Co-culture of human keratinocytes on post-mitotic human dermal fibroblast feeder cells: production of large amounts of interleukin 6.
A large synthesis of human IL-6 was demonstrated in co-cultures of human keratinocytes on post-mitotic human dermal fibroblast (HDF) feeder layers. Immunoreactive IL-1 beta could be detected in the… Expand

IgG, IgA and IgE autoantibodies against the ectodomain of BP180 in patients with bullous and cicatricial pemphigoid and linear IgA bullous dermatosis
Background Bullous pemphigoid (BP), linear IgA bullous dermatosis (LABD) and cicatricial pemphigoid (CP) are clinically distinct autoimmune bullous skin diseases characterized by autoantibodies… Expand

An autologous epidermal equivalent tissue‐engineered from follicular outer root sheath keratinocytes is as effective as split‐thickness skin autograft in recalcitrant vascular leg ulcers
The outer root sheath of hair follicles plays an important role in epidermal regeneration in vivo. Keratinocytes isolated by explantation of outer root sheath tissue have extensive proliferative… Expand
