متن کاملMolecular Mechanisms of Autoimmune Disease
Seminal work by Yaron Tomer, M.D., has revealed various single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNP) that influence the likelihood of acquiring Autoimmune Thyroid Disease (AITD). Through whole genome screens and associated studies, these SNPs were found to reside in the thyroglobulin (Tg), MHC II, CD 40, and CTLA-4 genes. Furthermore, deeper analysis has unearthed striking genetic interactions between...
متن کاملMolecular and cellular mechanisms associated with autoimmune diseases.
Evidence points to increases in the incidence and prevalence of several autoimmune diseases in the United States. As a result, the cost to public health from clinical management of autoimmune conditions is on the rise. The initiation and progression of autoimmune disturbances involves both genetic and environmental factors. Deficiencies in important proteins that normally participate in maintai...
متن کاملViral Infections and their Role in Autoimmune Diseases, with Emphasis on Mechanisms and Molecular Interactions
Introduction: The exact cause of most autoimmune diseases is still unknown; however, several factors play a role in causing or exacerbating autoimmune reactions. In addition to environmental factors such as bacterial, parasitic, fungal and viral infections, factors such as genetic characteristics and lifestyle are also included. Infections caused by viruses usually trigger a strong immune respo...
متن کاملPathogenesis of thyroid autoimmune disease: the role of cellular mechanisms.
Hashimoto's thyroiditis (HT) and Graves' disease (GD) are two very common organ-specific autoimmune diseases which are characterized by circulating antibodies and lymphocyte infiltration. Although humoral and cellular mechanisms have been classically considered separately in the pathogenesis of autoimmune thyroid diseases (AITD), recent research suggests a close reciprocal relationship between ...
