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 in autoimmune disease [PDF]

Archives of Disease in Childhood, 1998
The origins of autoimmune disease are multifactorial. Environmental factors and a genetic predisposition result in tissue injury caused by autoreactive T cells or antibodies. Usually a single organ or individual cell type is affected in the absence of gross abnormalities of the immune system.

Viruses and Autoimmunity: A Review on the Potential Interaction and Molecular Mechanisms

Viruses, 2019
For a long time, viruses have been shown to modify the clinical picture of several autoimmune diseases, including type 1 diabetes (T1D), systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), rheumatoid arthritis (RA), Sjögren’s syndrome (SS), herpetic stromal ...

Autoimmune Diseases and Molecular Mimicry in Tuberculosis

Biology
Comorbidities in tuberculosis patients are increasing annually. Autoimmune pathology may influence the diagnosis and treatment of tuberculosis (TB). However, the molecular mimicry between Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) and human autoantigens is an ...
