Autoimmune bullous diseases are a group of skin disorders resulting from an autoimmune reaction against intercellular adhesion molecules or components of the basement membrane of skin and mucosa. Autoimmune disorders often occur in patients with a history of another autoimmune disease and most autoimmune diseases have a striking female predominance. In this review, we aim to analyze the different associations of autoimmune bullous diseases with other autoimmune diseases and highlight the distinctiveness of the female gender in these associations.
自身免疫性大疱性疾病是一组因针对细胞间粘附分子或皮肤及黏膜基底膜成分的自身免疫反应而导致的皮肤疾病。自身免疫性疾病常发生于有其他自身免疫性疾病病史的患者中,且大多数自身免疫性疾病明显以女性居多。在本综述中,我们旨在分析自身免疫性大疱性疾病与其他自身免疫性疾病的不同关联,并强调这些关联中女性性别的独特性。
