Open questions in autoimmunity: discussions from the... [BMC Med. 2014] - PubMed - NCBI

From www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov - March 23, 2014 8:58 AM
PubMed comprises more than 23 million citations for biomedical literature from MEDLINE, life science journals, and online books. Citations may include links to full-text content from PubMed Central and publisher web sites.
Gilbert C FAURE's insight:

The recent CORA (Controversies in Rheumatology and Autoimmunity) meeting held in 2013 represented a unique opportunity for rheumatologists to address several topics. Among these, four topics include: (i) the role of epigenetic changes in the pathogenesis of rheumatoid arthritis (RA), as shown by studies in monozygotic twins; (ii) the cardiovascular and atherosclerotic risk in patients with RA treated with biologics; (iii) the use of new biomarkers for the diagnosis and follow-up of RA and other autoimmune diseases, as represented by the new automatic machines for anti-nuclear antibodies detection, or ultrasound imaging to follow RA progression; and (iv) the latest guidelines on how to use and manage biologic therapies in RA and other autoimmune diseases, such as lupus.

RHUMATOLOGIE - RHEUMATOLOGY

December 15, 2013 11:27 AM

Obviously a topic of interest for so many people:

 

for the patient, it includes aching muscles, tendons and joints..

for MDs and researchers, it covers degenerative diseases as well as arthritis, often associated with various autoimmune diseases (see autoimmunity http://www.scoop.it/t/autoimmunity).

 

Fortunately, new diagnostic tools are available

https://www.scoop.it/t/rheumatology-rhumatologie?q=diagnosis

and new biotherapies 

https://www.scoop.it/t/rheumatology-rhumatologie?q=therapy

allowed to improve the prognosis and the quality of life of patients

 

Guess why some topics are much covered than others?

 

Simply because, they were personal topics of research before, for instance

Synovial membrane

Crystal Deposition Diseases

Rheumatoid arthritis

 

with various methods

Scanning Electron Microscopy

Immunohistology

 

Gilbert C FAURE's insight:

January 2016

still few viewers (#650) for this topic, but >1280 posts and 2000 views, much less than other immunology topics, but growing!

 

March 2024 > 2300 sccops, >10.1 K views, > 2600 visitors

The pathogenesis of systemic lupus erythematosus—an update

Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE, lupus) is characterized by a global loss of self-tolerance with activation of autoreactive T and B cells leading to production of pathogenic autoantibodies and tissue injury. Innate immune mechanisms are necessary for the aberrant adaptive immune responses in SLE. Recent advances in basic and clinical biology have shed new light on disease mechanisms in lupus, with this review discussing the recent studies that offer valuable insights into disease-specific therapeutic targets.

Gilbert C FAURE's insight:

In the preclinical phase of RA, IgG ACPA comes first, followed by IgA, and then by IgM. For RF, the IgG subtype seems to appear after IgA and IgM. As postulated previously [3], the IgG-dominated anti-CCP pattern might reflect a mature T cell-dependent immune reaction, whereas the IgM-dominated RF response might represent a non-isotype switched T cell-independent immune response. All investigated autoantibodies rise over time before RA diagnosis. Finally, smoking seems to influence both IgA APCA and IgA RF levels and this is in line with the hypothesis that smoking induces or augments a mucosa-related immune response in lungs.
