Abstract

Pemphigus is a blistering mucocutaneous disease which is mainly caused by autoantibodies against desmoglein(Dsg)-1 and Dsg-3.Desmosome maintains the integrity of epithelium.And destroying of the structure or function of desmosome plays a well-known important role in pemphigus pathogenesis.We will summarize desmosome and its structure,pemphigus signal pathways and pemphigus in this article.And hope that we can find new breakthroughs in pemphigus treatment.
