The exposure of autoantigens by microparticles underlies the formation of potent inflammatory components: the microparticle-associated immune complexes [PDF]
Immunoglobulins, antigens and complement can assemble to form immune complexes (IC). ICs can be detrimental as they propagate inflammation in autoimmune diseases.

Immunoproteomics technologies in the discovery of autoantigens in autoimmune diseases
Proteomics technologies are often used for the identification of protein targets of the immune system. Here, we discuss the immunoproteomics technologies used for the discovery of autoantigens in autoimmune diseases where immune system dysregulation ...

Autoimmune Diseases and Molecular Mimicry in Tuberculosis. [PDF]
Comorbidities in tuberculosis patients are increasing annually. Autoimmune pathology may influence the diagnosis and treatment of tuberculosis (TB). However, the molecular mimicry between Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) and human autoantigens is an ...

Aminoacyl-tRNA Synthetases: On Anti-Synthetase Syndrome and Beyond
Anti-synthetase syndrome (ASSD) is an autoimmune disease characterized by the presence of autoantibodies targeting one of several aminoacyl t-RNA synthetases (aaRSs) along with clinical features including interstitial lung disease, myositis, Raynaud’s ...

Multiple sclerosis (MS) is an inflammatory disease of the central nervous system (CNS), in which pathological T cells, likely autoimmune, play a key role. Despite its central importance, the autoantigen repertoire remains largely uncharacterized. Using a

COVID-19 is accompanied by a myriad of both transient and long-lasting autoimmune responses. Dermatan sulfate (DS), a glycosaminoglycan crucial for wound healing, has unique affinity for autoantigens (autoAgs) from apoptotic cells.

Enhanced Expression of Autoantigens During SARS-CoV-2 Viral Infection
Immune homeostasis is disturbed during severe viral infections, which can lead to loss of tolerance to self-peptides and result in short- or long-term autoimmunity.

Fcγ receptor activation mediates vascular inflammation and abdominal aortic aneurysm development
Background Abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA), a degenerative vascular pathology characterized by permanent dilation of the aorta, is considered a chronic inflammatory disease involving innate/adaptive immunity.
