Adrenal Autoimmunity and Correlation with Adrenal Dysfunction
The Endocrinologist, 2000Primary adrenal insufficiency (Addison's disease) affects approximately 1 in 8500 persons in the general population. In the western countries, 70-75% of cases of Addison's disease are caused by autoimmune destruction of the adrenal cortex. The presence of adrenal cortex autoantibodies (ACA), as detected by indirect immunofluorescence, is a good marker ...

Adrenal function in autoimmune thyroiditis
Irish Journal of Medical Science, 1974Adrenal function was assessed in 52 euthyroid patients (48 of whom were taking thyroxine replacement therapy) in whom autoimmune thyroiditis had been diagnosed between one and a half and 17 years previously. There was no clinical evidence of adrenal hypofunction.

Autoimmune Adrenal Insufficiency
BioDrugs, 2000The main cause of Addison's disease is an autoimmune organ-specific destruction of the cells in the adrenal cortex by an autoreactive process of activated immune cells directed against the steroid-synthesising enzyme 21-hydroxylase. The diagnosis of Addison's disease is suspected in a patient presenting with symptoms of fatigue, bodyweight loss ...

Recent advances in adrenal autoimmunity
Expert Review of Endocrinology & Metabolism, 2009Autoimmune Addison's disease (AAD) results from the immune-mediated destruction of adrenocortical cells. AAD is a major component of the autoimmune polyendocrine syndromes type 1 (APS 1) and type 2. The adrenal autoimmune process is made evident by the apperance of circulating autoantibodies against the steroidogenic enzyme 21-hydroxylase. Detection of

Adrenal Autoimmunity: Results and Developments
Trends in Endocrinology & Metabolism, 2000Autoimmune Addison's disease (autoimmune adrenalitis) often occurs in autoimmune polyendocrinopathy syndromes APS1 (APECED) and APS2. Although the genetic background and etiology of the two syndromes is remarkably different, they both result in a similar autoimmune destruction of the adrenal cortex.

Autoimmune Adrenalitis, Asthma and Membranoproliferative Glomerulonephritis
American Journal of Nephrology, 1991We report the first case of membranoproliferative glomerulonephritis in a patient with chronic adrenal insufficiency due to autoimmune adrenalitis. In addition, this patient developed extrinsic asthma. The pathogenic implications of autoimmune adrenalitis with a long lasting hypocortisolemic state and the appearance of immunologically mediated diseases
