Abstract:
:Autoimmune blistering dermatoses (ABDs) are characterized by autoantibodies to keratinocyte surface antigens and molecules within the dermal-epidermal junction causing disruption of skin integrity. The affinity of Fc receptors (FcRs) causing an autoimmune response in ABDs may vary based on single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in FcRs determining the course of disease. This study aimed to explore the effects of CD16A and CD32A SNPs on the autoimmune response in several ABDs. In total, 61 ABDs patients were investigated. ELISA tests, direct immunofluorescence (DIF), TaqMan SNP Genotyping Assays, and statistical analyses were performed. The CA genotype (composed of allele C and A) of rs396991 in CD16A had a higher affinity for tissue-bound IgG1 in pemphigus and for C3 in subepithelial ABDs, showing statistical significance. The greatest relative risk (odds ratio) was reported for AA (rs396991 of CD16A) and CC (rs1801274 of CD32A) homozygotes. There were no statistically significant differences between certain genotypes and specific circulating autoantibodies (anti-DSG1, anti-DSG3 IgG in pemphigus; anti-BP180, anti-BP230 IgG) in subepithelial ABDs. Our findings indicated that rs396991 in CD16A may be of greater importance in ABDs development. Moreover, FcR polymorphisms appeared to have a greater impact on tissue-bound antibodies detected using DIF than circulating serum antibodies in ABDs.
