6 VII Foreword I Research into blistering diseases has been one of the success stories of the last 20 years in dermatology. Blistering diseases divide naturally into the autoimmune variants, seen mainly in adults, and inherited varieties, mainly presenting in early childhood. Studies on all continents looking at the clinical aspects, traditional pathology, detailed electron microscopy, and subsequent correlation of these three aspects with modern molecular biology have greatly increased our understanding of the mechanisms at fault in both autoimmune and inherited blistering disorders. The range of genetic defects identified have lowered the age of gestation at which the molecular diagnosis of a foetus at risk can be investigated in high-risk pregnancies. It is therefore essential that the modern dermatologist, paediatrician, geriatrician and primary care physician have a clear understanding of our current knowledge of blistering diseases. Professor Megahed has brought all aspects of this knowledge together in this excellent monograph, which should be required reading for all those involved in the diagnosis or management of patients with this group of disorders.

7 IX Foreword II Since the early days of modern dermatology, blistering diseases as a group of skin disorders have fascinated and occasionally puzzled clinicians and scientists alike. It has been clear for decades that we are dealing with a spectrum of disorders with diverse phenotypic manifestations and overlapping features, yet with a single unifying diagnostic feature, i. e., blistering of the skin. What has been puzzling in the past is that the natural outcome and the response to medication were often unpredictable, and not infrequently, the clinical presentation shifted from one established disease category to another. Adding to the complexity were the observations that in some cases the blistering was present at birth, often with familial occurrence, while in other cases blistering developed late in life without any family history. Furthermore, blistering was occasionally associated with seemingly unrelated extracutaneous diseases, such as various malignancies and lymphoproliferative disorders. Over the past three decades, the seemingly confusing picture has been considerably clarified. With the advent of research in cutaneous biology and pathology, it first became clear that certain blistering diseases are due to circulating autoantibodies. The specificity of these antibodies recognizing autoantigens within the skin determines the distinctive features and allows subclassification of these conditions, as illustrated by the pemphigus group of disorders. Subsequently, the heritable blistering disorders, exemplified by different forms of epidermolysis bullosa, were shown to result from mutations in the structural genes expressed within the cutaneous basement membrane zone. Today, mutations are known to reside in as many as ten distinct genes, providing the molecular explanation for the spectrum of phenotypic severity in this group of heritable disorders. Identification of specific mutations in patients with epidermolysis bullosa has now provided the basis for development of a refined, molecularly based classification system with prognostic implications. This progress has also improved our capability for accurate genetic counseling and has provided the basis for DNA-based prenatal testing and preimplantation genetic diagnosis. In addition to providing etiologic explanations for different forms of blistering disorders both acquired and heritable research on these conditions has provided new understanding of the biology of normal skin. For example, early characterization of autoantigens by utilizing circulating autoantibodies as diagnostic tools has allowed identification of specific structural proteins of the epidermis. These include desmosomal desmogleins as well as hemidesmosomal bullous pemphigoid antigens, discovered by the use of sera from pemphigus and bullous pemphigoid patients, respectively. Furthermore, identification of pathogenic mutations in epidermolysis bullosa which reside in distinct genes encoding proteins expressed at the cutaneous basement membrane zone has provided unequivocal genetic evidence for the importance of adhesion complexes, such as hemidesmosomes, anchoring filaments and anchoring fibrils, in providing stability to the dermal-epidermal adhesion zone. In fact, examination of the epidermolysis bullosa mutation database has allowed development of the concept of a protein network extending from the intracellular milieu of the basal keratinocytes to the sublamina densa compartment at the upper papillary dermis as a critical structural element necessary for stable association of epidermis with the underlying dermis. Thus, genetic mutations in these structural components of the dermal-epidermal junction or their perturbations by immunologic means explain the fragility of skin, as seen in heritable and acquired forms of blistering disorders. This treatise compiled by Professor Megahed chronicles the journey of increased understanding of blistering diseases from the the early history of medicine to the era of molecular dermatology. It highlights the progress made in understanding blistering diseases over more than two centuries as a result of astute clinical observations and relentless investigative research. In a masterful way, the book combines both clinical, histopathological, electron microscop-
8 X Foreword II ic, immunological and molecular biological aspects of blistering diseases, with the culmination of current understanding of the molecular basis of this fascinating group of disorders. The summary of blistering diseases, as presented in this textbook, serves as an instructive paradigm of the progress in modern dermatology. Professor Megahed should be congratulated for this outstanding work. Jouni Uitto, MD PhD Professor and Chair Jefferson Medical College Philadelphia, Pennsylvania
9 XI Preface The idea of writing this book first arose during my stay in the laboratories of Professor Jouni Uitto at Thomas Jefferson University, Philadelphia. There I had the opportunity to work with many gifted scientists and able physicians who were interested in studying the cellular and sub-cellular pathology of blistering diseases. I observed, however, that although the scientists clearly had a very detailed knowledge of the genes and proteins involved in the blistering diseases, it was evident that they knew much less about the disease processes from both a clinical and a histopathological perspective. Conversely, although many of the physicians were very aware of the clinical manifestations of the blistering diseases, they often lacked detailed knowledge of both the skin pathology and the rapidly expanding molecular and cellular biology findings that were emerging from this and other laboratories. Furthermore, I also noted that pathologists and dermatopathologists were also experiencing difficulties in finding a single comprehensive source of information that encompassed the new molecular data while also providing a clinical link. Finally, I was aware that other clinicians, including ophthalmologists, gynaecologists, oral surgeons and otolarygologists, who occasionally encounter patients with blistering diseases in their clinical practices, were also lacking reference to information that would help them better diagnose and understand these disorders. For all of these reasons, I felt encouraged to write a new type of book that could present these diseases in an integrated modern style, combining the clinical picture, histopathology, molecular biology and molecular genetics within one presentation. The book consists of five chapters and contains 532 high-quality images. In the first chapter, I have provided a historical overview of these diseases to allow the reader to appreciate the huge developments and progress that has taken place in studies of blistering disorders. The second chapter then focuses on the molecular anatomy of the proteins involved in the pathogenesis of these diseases, including the most recent discoveries. In the third, fourth and fifth chapters, the blistering diseases are presented. For each disorder, the format is first to describe the clinical picture and to outline new discoveries regarding disease aetiology. The histopathology is then documented in detail, with particular reference to the various stages of the disease development, since this is vital in more accurately understanding the clinicopathological correlation. Finally, the recent discoveries in molecular biology and molecular genetics are added to complete the reader's integrated knowledge of the specific blistering diseases. Although this book is a personal compilation that tries to combine clinical medicine, histopathology and molecular biology in a novel way, bringing it to publication has relied on the support and assistance of a number of other colleagues. Special thanks must be given to Mr. Neuse for taking the superb clinical photographs and for designing pages 1, 15 and 47. I am particularly grateful to Mrs. Winkler and Mrs. Moritz for their help with the histology slides and Mrs. Freudenberg for her assistance with electron microscopy images. Mosaad Megahed
