Autoantibodies Against Factor B and Factor H Without Pathogenic Effects in a Patient with Immune Complex-Mediated Membranoproliferative Glomerulonephritis [PDF]
BiomedicinesBackground: Membranoproliferative glomerulonephritis (MPGN) is an umbrella term for chronic disorders affecting the glomeruli. MPGN is often accompanied by the presence of autoantibodies against complement components.

Romiplostim use in pregnant women with immune thrombocytopenia
American Journal of Hematology, Volume 98, Issue 1, Page 31-40, January 2023., 2023 Abstract Treatment for immune thrombocytopenia (ITP) in pregnancy is hampered by the lack of fetal safety evidence of maternally‐administered medications. The Pregnancy Surveillance Program (PSP) collected patient information from 2017–2020 for pregnancy, birth outcomes, and adverse events (AEs) for 186 women exposed to romiplostim from 20 days before ...

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.

Lymphocytotoxic Autoantibodies [PDF]
, 2007 Anti-lymphocytic antibodies (anti-LCA) are detected in patients with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) with a prevalence ranging from 60–90%. LCA detection is associated with nephritis and neurologic disorders in these patients, and high rates of LCA occur during phases of active SLE.

Immunologic Research, 2013 Autoimmune diseases (ADs) are chronic conditions initiated by the loss of immunological tolerance to self-antigens. The pathogenic hypothesis comprises a complex interaction between genetic, environmental and hormonal factors that interact with an individual over time generating a dysregulation of the immune system leading to disease development ...

COULD BE CONSIDERED SERUM ANTI-S-100 AUTOANTIBODIES A BIOMARKER IN PATIENTS WITH ACUTE NON-CARDIOEMBOLIC ISCHEMIC STROKE? [PDF]
Romanian Medical Journal, 2018 In ischemic stroke patients there were found autoantibodies against brain epitopes. The presence of anti-S-100 autoantibodies may reflect alteration and dysfunction of the blood-brain barrier.

Set Up for Failure: Pre-Existing Autoantibodies in Lung Transplant
Frontiers in Immunology, 2021 Lung transplant patients have the lowest long-term survival rates compared to other solid organ transplants. The complications after lung transplantation such as primary graft dysfunction (PGD) and ultimately chronic lung allograft dysfunction (CLAD) are
