Malignancy-Associated Membranous Nephropathy with Positive Anti-PLA2R Autoantibodies: Coincidence or Connection

Case Reports in Nephrology and Dialysis, 2021
Membranous nephropathy (MN) is currently classified as either primary – often associated with positive anti-phospholipase-A2 receptor (PLA2R) autoantibodies – or as secondary – associated with malignancy, infection, medications, or autoimmune disease. We

Increased immune complexes of hypocretin autoantibodies in narcolepsy. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2010
BACKGROUND: Hypocretin peptides participate in the regulation of sleep-wake cycle while deficiency in hypocretin signaling and loss of hypocretin neurons are causative for narcolepsy-cataplexy.

The detectable anti-interferon-γ autoantibodies in COVID-19 patients may be associated with disease severity

Virology Journal, 2023
Background Neutralizing anti-interferon (IFN)-γ autoantibodies are linked to adult-onset immunodeficiency and opportunistic infections. Methods To explore whether anti-IFN-γ autoantibodies are associated with disease severity of coronavirus disease 2019 (

Extrapancreatic autoantibody profiles in type I diabetes. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2012
Type I diabetes (T1D) is an autoimmune disease characterized by destruction of insulin-producing β-cells in the pancreas. Although several islet cell autoantigens are known, the breadth and spectrum of autoantibody targets has not been fully explored ...

Autoantibody profiles in systemic sclerosis; a comparison of diagnostic tests

Autoimmunity, 2021
Objectives Autoimmune antibody profiling plays a prominent role in both classification and prognosis of systemic sclerosis (SSc). In the last years novel autoantibodies have been discovered and have become available in diagnostic assays.

Detection of Novel Autoantibodies to Nucleolin's RNA-binding Domains as a Serum Tumor Biomarker Through ELISA

Iranian Journal of Allergy, Asthma and Immunology, 2022
Expression and location of nucleolin are often abnormal in malignancies, which may result in the production of autoantibodies. Despite this, the identification of such autoantibodies may be essential for the early diagnosis and prognosis of cancers.

Anticytokine Autoantibodies: Association with Infection and Immune Dysregulation

Antibodies, 2016
The association of autoantibodies to cytokines with immune deficiency, autoimmunity and/or immune dysregulation is increasingly being recognized. For example, autoantibodies to interferon gamma have been found to be associated with chronic, treatment ...

Receptor autoantibodies: Associations with cardiac markers, histology, and function in human non‐ischaemic heart failure

ESC Heart Failure, 2023
Aims A causal link between non‐ischaemic heart failure (HF) and humoral autoimmunity against G‐protein‐coupled receptors (GPCR) remains unclear except for Chagas' cardiomyopathy.

Prevalence of Anti-neural Autoantibodies in a Psychiatric Patient Cohort-Paradigmatic Application of Criteria for Autoimmune-Based Psychiatric Syndromes

Frontiers in Psychiatry, 2022
BackgroundAnti-neural autoantibodies associated with psychiatric syndromes is an increasing phenomenon in psychiatry. Our investigation aimed to assess the frequency and type of neural autoantibodies associated with distinct psychiatric syndromes in a ...
