Inflammasome Molecular Insights in Autoimmune Diseases
Current Issues in Molecular BiologyAutoimmune diseases (AIDs) emerge due to an irregular immune response towards self- and non-self-antigens. Inflammation commonly accompanies these conditions, with inflammatory factors and inflammasomes playing pivotal roles in their progression.

Anti-ganglioside anti-idiotypic vaccination: more than molecular mimicry.
Frontiers in Oncology, 2012 Surgery, chemotherapy, and radiation therapy are standard modalities for cancer treatment, but the effectiveness of these treatments has reached a plateau. Thus, other strategies are being explored to combine with the current treatment paradigms in order

Is Captain Kirk a natural blonde? Do X-ray crystallographers dream of electron clouds? Comparing model-based inferences in science with fiction [PDF]
, 2018 Scientific models share one central characteristic with fiction: their relation to the physical world is ambiguous. It is often unclear whether an element in a model represents something in the world or presents an artifact of model building.

Sarcoidosis, Cancer and Molecular Mimicry
International Journal of Immunopathology and Pharmacology, 2013 Molecular mimicry seems to be the most important factor for the heterogeneous clinical presentation and the immunopathogenesis of sarcoidosis. Molecular mimicry may occur as a result of altered activity of oncogenes. This can lead to crossed-type mediated body reactions targeting structurally similar sections or regions from the tissue homeostasis ...

Molecular mimicry: An explanation for autoimmune diseases and infertility
Scandinavian Journal of Immunology, 2018 Microorganisms execute an enthralling range of adjustments to survive in the host. Among the various strategies employed by microorganisms to surmount the host immune response, the phenomenon of molecular mimicry empowers the microorganisms to manoeuvre ...
