Background
The protein encoded by the Desmosomal Protein gene is a calcium-dependent glycoprotein that is a member of the desmocollin subfamily of the cadherin superfamily. These desmosomal family members, along with the desmogleins, are found primarily in epithelial cells where they constitute the adhesive proteins of the desmosome cell-cell junction and are required for cell adhesion and desmosome formation. The desmosomal family members are arranged in two clusters on chromosome 18, occupying less than 650 kb combined. Alternative splicing results in two transcript variants encoding distinct isoforms.

ABSTRACT
Background Pemphigus foliaceus is the most common autoimmune disease in dogs. It is characterized histologically by subcorneal pustules and acantholysis. Desmocollin-1 is the major target antigen of autoantibodies in dogs. Previous immunostaining studies have shown possible pathogenic similarities between canine and human pemphigus.
Objetives To investigate the pathogenesis of acantholysis in canine Pemphigus Foliaceus, we decided to review the main histopathological findings and observe the variations of the labeling of desmocollin-1 by immunohistochemistry in skin biopsies from sick dogs.
Material and methods Five cases of dogs with Pemphigus Foliaceus were selected and histopathological findings were reviewed by hematoxylin-eosin staining. Then the samples were stained following an immunohistochemical protocol, with an anti-desmocolin-1 antibody.
Results The 5 cases presented typical histological characteristics of PFc: pustules in the superficial layers of the epidermis, acantholytic keratinocytes and neutrophilic exocytosis. We have validated the use of the anti-dsc-1 antibody in dogs, for immunhistochemistry in skin biopsies preserved in paraffin. We have observed that, in dogs with PF, the immunohistochemical pattern of desmocollin-1 was altered.
Conclusions Staining of desmocollin-1 is altered in dogs with PF. We were able to corroborate the pathogenic mechanisms already demonstrated by immunohistochemistry. Thus, immunohistochemical staining for this protein may be useful in diagnosis. Its use, to study precise mechanisms, is limited and more biotechnologic tools are needed to complement the knowledge on this disease.
