Immunometabolism and autoimmunity
Current Opinion in Immunology, 2020Over the last few years, immune cell metabolism has become one of the most stimulating areas of investigation in the field of immunology. Compelling evidence has revealed that metabolic pathways are closely associated to cell functions and immune cells adopt defined metabolic programs to sustain their activity and respond to micro-environmental demands.

Infection, autoimmunity and autoimmune disease
1996Studies of the immune response of mammals to infectious agents have revealed that members of the hsp60 and hsp 70 family are highly immunodominant. Given their high conservation during evolution this was surprising, because of the apparent risk of triggering of autoimmunity and autoimmune disease during the defense of a mammal against infection ...

Clinics in Liver Disease, 2002
This chapter describes perturbations in the signaling, apoptotic, and regulatory pathways within the innate and adaptive immune systems that favor the development of autoimmune hepatitis. Molecular mimicry, neoantigens, epitope spread, and promiscuous targeting by activated lymphocytes are discussed, and the genetic predispositions implicated in the ...

Autoimmunity and Autoimmune Diseases in the Elderly
2009In the majority of papers dealing with immune system changes, higher prevalence of autoimmunity and autoimmune diseases among elderly people is stressed as one of the factors confirming the changes of immune system function in aging. This statement is repeated for a very long time and most of the authors treat it as a “stone-carved” truth.

Orvosi Hetilap, 2007
First the short history of the disease, then its etiopathogenesis, the role of genetic, environmental and immunologic factors are described. In the second part, the questions of diagnosis, differential diagnosis and the immunosuppressive treatment, with new therapeutic modalities and liver transplantation are discussed.

Best Practice & Research Clinical Gastroenterology, 2006
Autoimmune hepatitis (AIH) was the first chronic liver disease in which remission was achieved by immunosuppression. Prognosis is poor when left untreated. Since the original description in 1950 by Waldenström, the initially reported treatment option has remained until today and is the core of the basic therapeutic strategy of inducing remission with ...

The scarcity of Trypanosoma cruzi in inflammatory lesions of chronic Chagas disease led early investigators to suggest that tissue damage had an autoimmune nature. In spite of parasite persistence in chronic Chagas disease, several reports indicate that inflammatory tissue damage may not be correlated to the local presence of T. cruzi.

Pituitary, 2005
The interrelationship between prolactin (PRL) and the immune system have been elucitaded in the last decade, opening new important horizons in the field of the immunoendocrinology. PRL is secreted not only by anterior pituitary gland but also by many extrapituitary sites including the immune cells.

American Journal of Clinical Pathology, 1984
A 43-year-old para 3 woman presented with a six-year history of progressive oligomenorrhea and hypomenorrhea. A total abdominal hysterectomy with bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy was performed for the suspicion of ovarian cysts. On histologic examination, the ovaries contained lymphocytic and plasma cell infiltrates in relation to the theca interna of ...

Citrullination and Autoimmunity
Autoimmunity Reviews, 2015Autoimmune diseases are characterized by the body's own immune system attack to the self-tissues, a condition enabled, in predisposed subjects, by the reduction of self-tolerance. A central role has been recently recognized to post-translational modifications, since they can promote generation of neo-(auto)antigens and in turn an autoimmune response ...
