Sterling Accuris Diagnostics offers the Desmoglein (DSG) 1 And 3 Antibody Test in Mehsana to diagnose autoimmune disorders of the skin and mucous membranes.
Overview of Desmoglein (DSG) 1 And 3 Antibody Test
The Desmoglein (DSG) 1 And 3 Antibody Test is done to detect a group of autoimmune disorders that occurs due to the production of auto-antibodies against a cell-surface antigen called ‘Desmosomes’. It is a disorder of the skin and mucous membranes wherein severe blisters are formed, and the resulting disease caused is called pemphigus. This can be fatal if it occurs on the intraepithelial mucous membranes. Desmoglein 1 and 3 are adhesion molecules found in desmosomes and auto-antibodies against these proteins would destroy them, resulting in loss of cell-adhesion which is in-turn associated with blister formation.
