Nasal administration of glutamate decarboxylase (GAD65) peptides induces Th2 responses and prevents murine insulin-dependent diabetes. [PDF]
We previously demonstrated that a spontaneous Th1 response against glutamate decarboxylase (GAD65) arises in NOD mice at four weeks in age and subsequently T cell autoimmunity spreads both intramolecularly and intermolecularly.

Evidence for gliadin antibodies as causative agents in schizophrenia. [PDF]
Antibodies to gliadin, a component of gluten, have frequently been reported in schizophrenia. Highly immunogenic B cell epitopes along its length are homologous to numerous proteins relevant to schizophrenia, including members of the DISC1 interactome ...

Abstract Immunopeptidomics is becoming an increasingly important field of study. The capability to identify immunopeptides with pivotal roles in the human immune system is essential to shift the current curative medicine towards personalized medicine. Throughout the years, the field has matured, giving insight into the current pitfalls. Nowadays, it is

Breaking Boundaries: Chronic Diseases and the Frontiers of Immune Microenvironments
ABSTRACT The immune microenvironment includes immune cells, cytokines, extracellular matrix, vesicles, etc. The interactions between these components form a unique local immune microecology. Although immunity serves as the defense against external pathogens, aberrant immune activation often contributes to disease development.

Autoantigen-Specific Immunotherapy [PDF]
The incidence of type 1 diabetes (T1D) is increasing dramatically and new treatment modalities are needed urgently. Arising from autoimmune destruction of the pancreatic ┚cells, T1D manifests itself when less than 10-20% of functional ┚-cells remain in the islets and is characterized as a disorder of glucose regulation due to the insufficient ...

Background Autoimmune diseases result from aberrant immune attacks by the body itself. It is mysterious how autoantigens, a large cohort of seemingly unconnected molecules expressed in different parts of the body, can induce similar autoimmune responses.
