Prediction of impending type 1 diabetes through automated dual-label measurement of proinsulin:C-peptide ratio [PDF]
, 2016 Background : The hyperglycemic clamp test, the gold standard of beta cell function, predicts impending type 1 diabetes in islet autoantibody-positive individuals, but the latter may benefit from less invasive function tests such as the proinsulin: C ...

Screening of endocrine organ-specific humoral autoimmunity in 47,XXY Klinefelter's syndrome reveals a significant increase in diabetes-specific immunoreactivity in comparison with healthy control men. [PDF]
, 2015 The aim of this study was to evaluate the frequency of humoral endocrine organ-specific autoimmunity in 47,XXY Klinefelter’s syndrome (KS) by investigating the autoantibody profile specific to type 1 diabetes (T1DM), Addison’s disease (AD), Hashimoto ...

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.

Can unilateral, progressive or sudden hearing loss be immune-mediated in origin? [PDF]
, 2017 OBJECTIVE: The aim of the present study was to demonstrate that the positivity of nonspecific immunological tests could be found not only in bilateral hearing loss but also in unilateral cases, either sudden or progressive. METHOD: An observational case

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 ...

Autoantibodies against retinal proteins in paraneoplastic and autoimmune retinopathy [PDF]
, 2004 BACKGROUND: Autoimmune retinal degeneration may occur in patients who present with sudden or, less commonly, subacute loss of vision of retinal origin, associated with an abnormal ERG, through the action of autoantibodies against retinal proteins.
