Rodent Models of Experimental Autoimmune Uveitis [PDF]
The model of experimental autoimmune uveitis (EAU) in mice and in rats is described. EAU targets immunologically privileged retinal antigens and serves as a model of autoimmune uveitis in humans as well as a model for autoimmunity in a more general sense.

Osteopontin and fibronectin levels are decreased in vitreous of autoimmune uveitis and retinal expression of both proteins indicates ECM re-modeling. [PDF]
Autoimmune uveitis is an intraocular inflammation that arises through autoreactive T-cells attacking the inner eye, eventually leading to blindness. However, the contributing molecular pathomechanisms within the affected tissues remain as yet elusive ...

Microbiota as Drivers and as Therapeutic Targets in Ocular and Tissue Specific Autoimmunity
Autoimmune uveitis is a major cause of blindness in humans. Activation of retina-specific autoreactive T cells by commensal microbiota has been shown to trigger uveitis in mice.

Prospective study of uveitis in children with juvenile idiopathic arthritis over a 3-year period
Juvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIA) is the most common systemic autoimmune disease in childhood, which can cause non-infectious uveitis. Ocular inflammation is the most severe, sight-threatening extra-articular complication.
