Infectious diseases and autoimmunity [PDF]

The Journal of Infection in Developing Countries, 2011
Introduction: Autoimmunity occurs when the immune system recognizes and attacks host tissue. In addition to genetic factors, environmental triggers (in particular viruses, bacteria and other infectious pathogens) are thought to play a major role in the development of autoimmune diseases.

Urinary metabolomic biomarker candidates for skeletal muscle wasting in patients with rheumatoid arthritis

Journal of Cachexia, Sarcopenia and Muscle, 2023
Background Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is an autoimmune disease that affects the joints, leading to chronic synovial inflammation and local tissue destruction. Extra‐articular manifestations may also occur, such as changes in body composition.

Comprehensive analysis of lysine crotonylation modification in patients with chronic renal failure

BMC Nephrology, 2021
Background Post-translational modifications (PTMs) are at the heart of many cellular signaling events, which changes the function of protein. Crotonylation, one of the most important and common PTMs, plays a crucial role in the regulation of various ...

Screening biomarkers for Sjogren’s Syndrome by computer analysis and evaluating the expression correlations with the levels of immune cells

Frontiers in Immunology, 2023
BackgroundSjögren’s syndrome (SS) is a systemic autoimmune disease that affects about 0.04-0.1% of the general population. SS diagnosis depends on symptoms, clinical signs, autoimmune serology, and even invasive histopathological examination.

B cell depletion therapies in autoimmune disease: advances and mechanistic insights

Nature reviews. Drug discovery, 2020
In the past 15 years, B cells have been rediscovered to be not merely bystanders but rather active participants in autoimmune aetiology. This has been fuelled in part by the clinical success of B cell depletion therapies (BCDTs).

The characteristics of extrachromosomal circular DNA in patients with end-stage renal disease

European Journal of Medical Research, 2023
Background End-stage renal disease (ESRD) is the final stage of chronic kidney disease (CKD). In addition to the structurally intact chromosome genomic DNA, there is a double-stranded circular DNA called extrachromosomal circular DNA (eccDNA), which is ...
