Stochastic effects in autoimmune dynamics [PDF]
Frontiers in Physiology 9, 45 (2018), 2018 Among various possible causes of autoimmune disease, an important role is played by infections that can result in a breakdown of immune tolerance, primarily through the mechanism of "molecular mimicry". In this paper we propose and analyse a stochastic model of immune response to a viral infection and subsequent autoimmunity, with account for the ...

Is atherosclerosis an autoimmune disease? [PDF]
BMC Medicine, 2014 Immunologic research into pathogenic mechanisms operating in autoimmune-mediated atherosclerosis initially focused on adaptive immunity. Current interest is directed to more basic inflammatory mechanisms. Chronic inflammation (innate immunity-associated) may trigger initial events that can lead to atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease.

Effects of viral and cytokine delays on dynamics of autoimmunity [PDF]
Mathematics 6, 66 (2018), 2018 A major contribution to the onset and development of autoimmune disease is known to come from infections. An important practical problem is identifying the precise mechanism by which the breakdown of immune tolerance as a result of immune response to infection leads to autoimmunity. In this paper, we develop a mathematical model of immune response to a
