Evaluation of cutaneous, oral and intestinal microbiota in patients affected by pemphigus and bullous pemphigoid: A pilot study.

CONCLUSION: Firmicutes phylum and Staphilococcus genus were the most represented in OM and CM swabs of PV and BP microbial populations. Moreover, we argue the quantitative imbalance linked to the decrease of Bacteriodetes in the oral cavity of PV patients might be associated to disease typical fetor. To shed light on this peculiar feature further studies are still required. PMID: 31705881 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]
