Dermatitis herpetiformis is an autoimmune bullous disease that is associated with gluten sensitivity which typically presents as celiac disease. As both conditions are multifactorial disorders, it is not clear how specific pathogenetic mechanisms may lead to the dysregulation of immune responses in the skin and small bowel, respectively. Recent studies have demonstrated that IgA and antibodies against epidermal transglutaminase 3 play an important role in the pathogenesis of dermatitis herpetiformis. Here, we review recent immunopathological progress in understanding the pathogenesis of dermatitis herpetiformis.
疱疹样皮炎是一种自身免疫性大疱性疾病,与麸质敏感性相关,麸质敏感性通常表现为乳糜泻。由于这两种疾病都是多因素疾病,尚不清楚特定的致病机制如何分别导致皮肤和小肠免疫反应的失调。最近的研究表明,IgA和抗表皮转谷氨酰胺酶3抗体在疱疹样皮炎的发病机制中起重要作用。在此,我们综述了在理解疱疹样皮炎发病机制方面的最新免疫病理学进展。
