Autoantibodies in the sera of stroke patients react with BP180 and BP180-NC16A in immunoblotting. Serum antibodies from a patient with bullous pemphigoid (BP), a stroke patient (Stroke), or anti-human BP180 antibody (Control) but not a negative control serum (Negative) recognized a 180-kDa protein from human epidermal extract (A), the human recombinant full length BP180 (B), and human recombinant BP180-NC16A (C).
