Retinal glycoprotein enrichment by concanavalin a enabled identification of novel membrane autoantigen synaptotagmin-1 in equine recurrent uveitis. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Complete knowledge of autoantigen spectra is crucial for understanding pathomechanisms of autoimmune diseases like equine recurrent uveitis (ERU), a spontaneous model for human autoimmune uveitis. While several ERU autoantigens were identified previously,

Immunogenicity of autoantigens [PDF]

open access: yesBMC Genomics, 2011
Autoantibodies against self-antigens have been associated not only with autoimmune diseases, but also with cancer and are even found in healthy individuals. The mechanism causing the autoantibody response remains elusive for the majority of the immunogenic antigens. To deepen the understanding of autoantibody responses, we ask whether natural-occurring,

The nature of autoantigens [PDF]

open access: yesMemórias do Instituto Oswaldo Cruz, 1987
1. Autoimmunity in deisease is driven by autoantigen; 2. Cell surface molecules may stimulate autoreactive T-helpers if call II MHC is expressed; special factors may predispose to the ease of class II induction; 3. Soluble autoantigens may be focussed by primed B-cells and processed for presentation to T-cell; 4.

Autoantigenicity of nucleolar complexes [PDF]

open access: yesAutoimmunity Reviews, 2003
Autoantibodies targeting nucleolar autoantigens (ANoA) are most frequently found in sera from patients with systemic sclerosis (SSc, also designated scleroderma) or with SSc overlap syndromes. During the last decade an extensive number of nucleolar components have been identified and this allowed a more detailed analysis of the identity of nucleolar ...

Ribonucleoprotein complexes as autoantigens [PDF]

open access: yesCurrent Opinion in Immunology, 1995
Many intracellular proteins and nucleic acids, that are involved in important biosynthetic pathways, are targeted by autoantibodies occurring spontaneously in the sera of patients with systemic autoimmune diseases. Frequently, the autoantigens are assembled into multicomponent complexes containing both nucleic acid(s) and proteins.

Multiplex giant magnetoresistive biosensor microarrays identify interferon-associated autoantibodies in systemic lupus erythematosus. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
High titer, class-switched autoantibodies are a hallmark of systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). Dysregulation of the interferon (IFN) pathway is observed in individuals with active SLE, although the association of specific autoantibodies with chemokine ...

Equine recurrent uveitis - A spontaneous horse model of uveitis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Equine recurrent uveitis (ERU) is an autoimmune disease that occurs with a high prevalence (10%) in horses. ERU represents the only reliable spontaneous model for human autoimmune uveitis.

Ann Rheum Dis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Objective This study was conducted with sera from patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA), systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) and arthritis and lupus-like disease animal models to identify innate immune system-dependent and -independent ...

Combined therapy with GABA and proinsulin/alum acts synergistically to restore long-term normoglycemia by modulating T-cell autoimmunity and promoting β-cell replication in newly diabetic NOD mice. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Antigen-based therapies (ABTs) fail to restore normoglycemia in newly diabetic NOD mice, perhaps because too few β-cells remain by the time that ABT-induced regulatory responses arise and spread.

Characterization and epitope mapping of human monoclonal antibodies to PDC-E2, the immunodominant autoantigen of primary biliary cirrhosis [PDF]

open access: yes, 1992
Further to define the epitopes of PDC-E2, the major autoantigen in primary biliary cirrhosis (PBC), we have developed and characterized five human monoclonal antibodies. These antibodies were derived by fusing a regional hepatic lymph node from a patient
