The basement membrane zone in patients with systemic lupus erythematosus: immunofluorescence studies in the skin, kidney and amniochorion.
Histological studies suggest that the basement membrane zone (BMZ) is the main target of tissue pathology in cutaneous lupus erythematosus (LE). The BMZ is characteristically thickened and is the site of deposition of autoantibodies in LE. Alteration of some (BMZ) macromolecules is implicated in the...
