Progress in the pathogenesis of thyroid-associated ophthalmopathy and new drug development
Thyroid-associated ophthalmopathy (TAO) is the most common extrathyroidal manifestation of toxic diffuse goiter (Graves' disease), also known as Graves' ophthalmopathy/orbitopathy. As an organ-specific autoimmune disease, the pathogenesis of TAO is still

An Allosteric Strategy for Thyroid Eye Disease This illustration depicts an aptamer (purple) binding to the target protein (white) at an allosteric site. This strategic binding induces a conformational change that acts as a shield, preventing pathogenic autoantibodies (red) from initiating the disease cascade, while leaving the protein's normal ...

Application of Agents Against Interferon-Gamma-Dependent Chemokines in Immunotherapy [PDF]
The CXC chemokine receptor (CXCR) 3 and its chemokines (CXCL9, CXCL10, CXCL11) are involved in the pathogenesis of autoimmune disesases. Under the influence of interferon (IFN) γ, the IFNγ-inducible chemokines are secreted by lymphocytes, and by ...
