Most autoimmune-disease-risk effects identified by genome-wide association studies (GWAS) localize to open chromatin with gene-regulatory activity. GWAS loci are also enriched in expression quantitative trait loci (eQTLs), thus suggesting that most risk ...

Novel associations for hypothyroidism include known autoimmune risk loci [PDF]
Hypothyroidism is the most common thyroid disorder, affecting about 5% of the general population. Here we present the first large genome-wide association study of hypothyroidism, in 2,564 cases and 24,448 controls from the customer base of 23andMe, Inc.,

Can unilateral, progressive or sudden hearing loss be immune-mediated in origin? [PDF]
OBJECTIVE: The aim of the present study was to demonstrate that the positivity of nonspecific immunological tests could be found not only in bilateral hearing loss but also in unilateral cases, either sudden or progressive. METHOD: An observational case

Celiac disease is an autoimmune condition triggered by the ingestion of gluten, the protein fraction of wheat, barley and rye. It is not simply an intestinal disease; it is multifactorial caused by many different genetic factors acting together with non-genetic causes.

The dual role of short fatty acid chains in the pathogenesis of autoimmune disease models
Autoimmune diseases are influenced by both genetic and environmental factors. The gut environment has attracted much attention as an essential component that modulates immune responses, and therefore immune-mediated disorders, such as autoimmune diseases.

Genetic relationships between A20/TNFAIP3, chronic inflammation and autoimrnune disease [PDF]
A20 [also known as TNFAIP3 (tumour necrosis factor a-induced protein 3)] restricts and terminates inflammatory responses through modulation of the ubiquitination status of central components in NF-kappa B (nuclear factor kappa B), IRF3 (interferon ...

Apeced in Turkey: a case report and insights on genetic and phenotypic variability [PDF]
APECED is a rare monogenic recessive disorder caused by mutations in the AIRE gene. In this manuscript, we report a male Turkish patient with APECED syndrome who presented with chronic mucocutaneous candidiasis associated with other autoimmune ...
