A mutation in caspase-9 decreases the expression of BAFFR and ICOS in patients with immunodeficiency and lymphoproliferation [PDF]

, 2015
Lymphocyte apoptosis is mainly induced by either death receptor-dependent activation of caspase-8 or mitochondria-dependent activation of caspase-9. Mutations in caspase-8 lead to autoimmunity/lymphoproliferation and immunodeficiency. This work describes

Audio-vestibular symptoms in systemic autoimmune diseases [PDF]

, 2018
Immune-mediated inner ear disease can be primary, when the autoimmune response is against the inner ear, or secondary. The latter is characterized by the involvement of the ear in the presence of systemic autoimmune conditions. Sensorineural hearing loss

IL-21 drives expansion and plasma cell differentiation of autoreactive CD11chiT-bet+ B cells in SLE

Nature Communications, 2018
Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) is associated with altered B cell responses but the underlying aetiology is still unclear. Here the authors show that a CD11chiT-bet+ B cell subset with a unique phenotype and transcriptome is increased in patients with

A Toll for lupus [PDF]

, 2005
Toll-like receptor (TLR)-9 recognizes CpG motifs in microbial DNA. TLR9 signalling stimulates innate antimicrobial immunity and modulates adaptive immune responses including autoimmunity against chromatin, e.g., in systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE ...

The Effect of BAFF Inhibition on Autoreactive B-Cell Selection in Murine Systemic Lupus Erythematosus

Molecular Medicine, 2016
The goal of this study was to determine how B-cell-activating factor of the TNF family (BAFF) availability influences selection of the autoreactive B-cell repertoire in NZB/W and NZW/BXSB lupus-prone mice bearing the site-directed heavy-chain transgene ...

Altered function and differentiation of age-associated B cells contribute to the female bias in lupus mice

Nature Communications, 2021
Autoimmunity mediated by age-associated B cells (ABC) can affect males and females differently. Here, using a lupus-like mouse model that affects females more severely, the authors observe an ABC mediated and guanine nucleotide exchange factor (GEF ...

Corneal Confocal Microscopy in the Diagnosis of Small Fiber Neuropathy: Faster, Easier, and More Efficient Than Skin Biopsy?

Pathophysiology, 2021
Chronic pain may affect 30–50% of the world’s population and an important cause is small fiber neuropathy (SFN). Recent research suggests that autoimmune diseases may be one of the most common causes of small nerve fiber damage. There is low awareness of

Pathogenesis of autoimmune demyelination: from multiple sclerosis to neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorders and myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein antibody‐associated disease

Clinical & Translational Immunology, 2021
Autoimmunity plays a significant role in the pathogenesis of demyelination. Multiple sclerosis (MS), neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorders (NMOSD) and myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein antibody‐associated disease (MOGAD) are now recognised as ...

Letter to the editor: autoimmune pathogenic mechanisms in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis [PDF]

, 2018
The innate immune system may affect the function and survival of motor neurons in ALS by at least three mechanisms. First, there is evidence to suggest that aggregates of mutant SOD1—which is derived from microglial and astroglial cells—activate ...
