T-cells recognize peptides in the Histocompatibility Complex (MHC). [6] The second mechanism is negative selection, where T-cells that recognize self-antigens with too high an affinity are removed through the process of apoptosis and are not allowed to enter the body's circulation. Incidences of autoimmune skin diseases can vary based on ...

The dog then causes further trauma to the skin by itching and rubbing at the area, leading to a secondary bacterial infection." Acute moist dermatitis: Symptoms A patch of moist, inflamed skin ...
Histiocytic diseases in dogs are a group of diseases in dogs which may involve the skin, and which can be difficult to differentiate from granulomatous, reactive inflammatory or lymphoproliferative diseases. The clinical presentation and behaviour as well as response to therapy vary greatly among the syndromes.
Dogs have a wide range of coat colors, patterns, textures and lengths. [1] Dog coat color is governed by how genes are passed from dogs to their puppies and how those genes are expressed in each dog. Dogs have about 19,000 genes in their genome [2] but only a handful affect the physical variations in their coats. Most genes come in pairs, one ...

Discoid lupus erythematosus (DLE) is an uncommon autoimmune disease of the basal cell layer of the skin. It occurs in humans [1] and cats, more frequently occurring in dogs. It was first described in dogs by Griffin and colleagues in 1979. [2] [3] DLE is one form of cutaneous lupus erythematosus (CLE). DLE occurs in dogs in two forms: a ...
