Desmoglein 1 and 3 are distributed in the outer root sheath (ORS) of the hair follicle. Direct immunofluoresence (DIF) pattern of ORS in cases of pemphigus resembles the DIF pattern of the perilesional skin. We performed a DIF of the anagen and telogen hair ORS in a case of pemphigus and correlated it with the DIF findings of perilesional skin. Telogen hair ORS promises to be a useful tool in performing DIF for the purpose of diagnosis and follow-up in cases of pemphigus.
桥粒芯蛋白1和3分布于毛囊的外根鞘。天疱疮患者毛囊外根鞘的直接免疫荧光(DIF)模式类似于皮损周围皮肤的DIF模式。我们对1例天疱疮患者生长期和休止期毛发的外根鞘进行了DIF检测,并将其与皮损周围皮肤的DIF结果进行关联。休止期毛发外根鞘有望成为天疱疮诊断和随访中进行DIF检测的有用工具。
