DEAR EDITOR, Mucous membrane pemphigoid (MMP) presents various mucosal lesions, particularly velvety erythematous erosions along the teeth on the gingivae. 1, 2 Direct immunofluorescence reveals IgG and/or IgA deposits to the basement membrane zone (BMZ). 1 In indirect immunofluorescence, IgG and/or IgA antibodies in 70–80% of MMP sera react with the epidermal side of 1 mol Là1 NaCl-split skin, while IgG antibodies react with the dermal side in approximately 20% of MMP sera.In immunoblotting, IgG and/or IgA antibodies reactive with the epidermal side react with recombinant protein (RP) of the BP180 C-terminal domain (anti-BP180-type MMP). 3–5 IgG antibodies reactive with the dermal side react with laminin-332 (antilaminin-332-type MMP). 6 While anti-BP180-type MMP usually shows only oral lesions, antilaminin-332-type MMP tends to develop severe ocular and laryngeal lesions. 1 In addition, previous studies reported that IgG antibodies to the b4 and a6 subunits of integrin a6b4 were detected in ocular and oral MMP, respectively. 7, 8 Thus, MMP is extremely heterogeneous, which makes diagnosis difficult. This study reports a patient with oral MMP with IgG autoantibodies to both the b4 and a6 subunits of integrin a6b4.
