T cell receptor gene usage of BP180-specific T lymphocytes from patients with bullous pemphigoid and pemphigoid gestationis

BP180 is the autoantigen of different immunobullous diseases, including bullous pemphigoid (BP) and pemphigoid gestationis (PG). Previously, we demonstrated that the NC16A domain of this autoantigen harbors key epitopes of autoantibodies and T cells, indicating that it plays an essential role in the...
