- W2091228203 abstract "We report here direct immunofluorescence studies of normal skin biopsies that exhibited only complement C3 staining in intercellular areas of epithelium with a view toward evaluating the significance of such findings. During a 5- year period, 11,000 skin biopsy specimens were examined for in vivo binding of immunoglobulins, fibrin, and complement C3 by means of defined direct immunofluorescence methods. Four of ten patients demonstrating intercellular C3 deposits alone had drug-related reactions or erythema multiforme, and four were subsequently shown to have a connective tissue disease. Pemphigus was ruled out in all ten cases in these retrospective studies. These observations indicate that the finding of intercellular C3 deposits in the absence of IgG in normal skin is not a sign of pemphigus but, rather, a sign either of an unusual type of drug reaction or, possibly, of some connective tissue disease. However, the finding of intercellular C3 plus IgG (with or without other immunoglobulins) is a sign of pemphigus. The mechanism of C3 deposition without immunoglobulins is not clear.
