Thymus and autoimmunity [PDF]

open access: yesSeminars in Immunopathology, 2021
AbstractThe thymus prevents autoimmune diseases through mechanisms that operate in the cortex and medulla, comprising positive and negative selection and the generation of regulatory T-cells (Tregs). Egress from the thymus through the perivascular space (PVS) to the blood is another possible checkpoint, as shown by some autoimmune/immunodeficiency ...

The kaleidoscope of autoimmunity: multiple autoimmune syndromes and familial autoimmunity

open access: yesExpert Review of Clinical Immunology, 2007
Three related lines of evidence sustain the common origin for autoimmune diseases (ADs). First, the clinical evidence corresponding to the kaleidoscope of autoimmunity, which is the co-occurrence of various ADs within an individual or co-occurrence within members of a nuclear family.
