A 62-year-old man develops numerous superficial blisters over the scalp, face, groin, and trunk. New lesions develop over areas subjected to minimal trauma. Biopsy of one of the lesions shows an intraepidermal blister with suprabasal acantholysis. Serologic studies are likely to show an autoantibody directed against which of the following?
A) Anchoring filaments
B) Basement membrane proteins
C) Desmosomal proteins
D) Hemidesmosomal proteins
E) Integrins
