Autoimmunity is an underlying cause of many diseases, including type I diabetes mellitus, rheumatoid arthritis, multiple sclerosis, systemic lupus erythematosus and Crohn’s disease. The processes that ...

Human genetic variants associated with the development of systemic autoimmunity modulate B cell receptor (BCR) and co-receptor signalling, suggesting a role for dysregulated B cell signalling in ...

Chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T-cell therapy for blood cancers appeared less toxic, and patients' hospital stays were days shorter, when they also had autoimmune disease before starting the ...

Please provide your email address to receive an email when new articles are posted on . The common consensus for some time has been that the prevalence of autoimmunity and autoimmune diseases has been ...

Scientists have revealed a novel mechanism through which the immune system controls autoimmunity and cancer. In the special focus of the researchers were regulatory T cells -- a type of white blood ...

Immune dysregulation is often defined as an immune response that is directed against one of the body’s own tissues, cells or molecules (e.g. autoimmunity) or against an innocuous foreign molecule that ...

Alzheimer’s may be, at least in part, a disease of the immune system. Evidence supporting this comes from the study of genetics, infectious diseases, and the molecular machinations of the innate and ...

Autoimmune conditions are multifactorial in their cause, with a mixture of genetic and environmental factors often playing a role. As multifactorial conditions are partly caused by genetic factors, ...

Chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T-cell therapy for certain cancers comes with important side effects such as cytokine release syndrome and immune effector cell-associated neurotoxicity syndrome. Use ...
