Cover Caption:

Cover

Cover: PV-IgG caused dissociation of cultured HaCaT cells without evidence of altered nuclear morphology. Cultured HaCaT cells were incubated with IgG from a healthy volunteer and then stained with a monoclonal antibody to desmoglein 3 (Dsg 3) to label desmosomes and with DAPI to evaluate nuclear morphology. From: Schmidt E, Gutberlet J, Siegmund D, Berg D, Wajant H, Waschke J. “Apoptosis is not required for acantholysis in pemphigus vulgaris.” Am J Physiol Cell Physiol 296: C162–C172, 2009.
