Abstract | BACKGROUND: PATIENTS AND METHODS: A 48-year-old white male presented with generalized large confluent pustules. Skin pathology was assessed by histology and direct immunofluorescence analysis. IgG/ IgA autoantibodies against desmoglein 1/3 and desmocollin 1 were measured by ELISA and indirect immunofluorescence using desmocollin 1 cDNA-transfected COS7 cells, respectively. RESULTS: CONCLUSIONS:
