Estimating AutoAntibody Signatures to Detect Autoimmune Disease Patient Subsets [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2017
Autoimmune diseases are characterized by highly specific immune responses against molecules in self-tissues. Different autoimmune diseases are characterized by distinct immune responses, making autoantibodies useful for diagnosis and prediction. In many diseases, the targets of autoantibodies are incompletely defined.

Can unilateral, progressive or sudden hearing loss be immune-mediated in origin? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
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

Bidirectional relationship between eating disorders and autoimmune diseases.

open access: yesJournal of Child Psychology and Psychiatry and Allied Disciplines, 2018
BACKGROUND Immune system dysfunction may be associated with eating disorders (ED) and could have implications for detection, risk assessment, and treatment of both autoimmune diseases and EDs.

The Role of IL-17 and Related Cytokines in Inflammatory Autoimmune Diseases

open access: yesMediators of Inflammation, 2017
Interleukin-17 (IL-17) induces the production of granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (G-CSF) and chemokines such as CXCL1 and CXCL2 and is a cytokine that acts as an inflammation mediator.

Bisphenol A: A notorious player in the mosaic of autoimmunity

open access: yesAutoimmunity, 2018
The multifactorial etiology of autoimmune diseases has been studied at large. Genetic risk factors and environmental agents play an integral role in the pathogenesis of autoimmune processes.

A Framework for Individualizing Predictions of Disease Trajectories by Exploiting Multi-Resolution Structure [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2016
For many complex diseases, there is a wide variety of ways in which an individual can manifest the disease. The challenge of personalized medicine is to develop tools that can accurately predict the trajectory of an individual's disease, which can in turn enable clinicians to optimize treatments.

Lineage tree analysis of immunoglobulin variable-region gene mutations in autoimmune diseases: chronic activation, normal selection [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
Autoimmune diseases show high diversity in the affected organs, clinical manifestations and disease dynamics. Yet they all share common features, such as the ectopic germinal centers found in many affected tissues.

Sunlight and vitamin D for bone health and prevention of autoimmune diseases, cancers, and cardiovascular disease.

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Clinical Nutrition, 2004
Most humans depend on sun exposure to satisfy their requirements for vitamin D. Solar ultraviolet B photons are absorbed by 7-dehydrocholesterol in the skin, leading to its transformation to previtamin D3, which is rapidly converted to vitamin D3. Season,

Are autoimmune diseases predictable?

open access: yesAutoimmunity Reviews, 2012
Autoimmune diseases are complex diseases resulting of the interaction between both genetics and environmental factors over time. Different phases in the development of autoimmune diseases are characterized by the detection of serum autoantibodies several months or years before the onset of clinical manifestations and subsequent diagnosis.
