Discovery and horizontal follow-up of an autoantibody signature in human prostate cancer

An autoantibody marker to detect aggressive prostate #cancer? http://t.co/f3WQ9N9qjQ @PNASNews #indivmed http://t.co/KbSyKMcnDt
Gilbert C FAURE's insight:

In this report, serum antibodies to alpha-2–Heremans–Schmidt glycoprotein (fetuin-A) were demonstrated to display increased reactivity with concomitant development of metastatic castrate-resistant disease in a large cohort of prostate cancer patients.

Cutting Edge: AIM2 and Endosomal TLRs Differentially Regulate Arthritis and Autoantibody Production in DNase II-Deficient Mice [CUTTING EDGE]

Innate immune pattern recognition receptors sense nucleic acids from microbes and orchestrate cytokine production to resolve infection. Inappropriate recognition of host nucleic acids also results in autoimmune disease.

Frontiers | The uses and misuses of multiplex autoantibody assays in systemic autoimmune rheumatic diseases | B Cell Biology

Autoantibodies to cellular constituents are the serological hallmark in systemic autoimmune rheumatic diseases 1. They are often associated with certain diagnosis, clinical features, or disease act...
Gilbert C FAURE's insight:

Multiplex immunoassays for autoantibodies differ significantly depending on the manufacturer or kits and do not always show the intended specificity and sensitivity. These assays should be validated against a standard assay before releasing to the market or using in research to avoid confusions among clinicians and researchers. Postmarket evaluation of these technologies including systematic evaluation and standardization of assays are warranted.

Predicting Type 1 Diabetes Development in Young Children - Endocrinology Advisor

Predicting Type 1 Diabetes Development in Young Children - Endocrinology Advisor | AUTOIMMUNITY | Scoop.it
Measuring autoantibodies in the blood may indicate whether the immune system has begun to attack its own insulin cells.
Gilbert C FAURE's insight:

The new findings from the NIH-funded study, which were recently published in Diabetologia, suggest three ways of predicting development of type 1 diabetes.

If the autoantibody first discovered attacks insulin (IAA). In the study as a whole, this occurred by age 1 year. Dr. Lernmark noted in the release that if a second autoantibody is detected, the person may develop diabetes but perhaps not for 20 years.If the first autoantibody targets GAD65 (GADA), a protein inside the insulin-producing cells. This was most common at age 2 years in the study.If both autoantibodies are first found together. According to Dr. Lernmark, 40% of these children in the TEDDY study had already developed diabetes.

In the study, participants were enrolled as infants and underwent quarterly standardized autoantibody assessments for the first 4 years of life and semi-annually thereafter.
