JJ Zone, LJ Meyer, MJ Petersen - Archives of Dermatology, 1996 - jamanetwork.com
Objective: To compare the deposition of IgA and C3 in the skin of patients with active
dermatitis herpetiformis relative to the sites of disease. Design: In the phase 1 study, skin
biopsy specimens were obtained from erythematous perilesional skin, nonerythematous
perilesional skin, and never-involved skin. In the phase 2 study, specimens from the
nonerythematous perilesional and uninvolved skin from the same anatomic region were
sampled. Setting: The Dermatology Clinic at the University of Utah Health Sciences Center …
