Infection by Cag A Positive Strains of Helicobacter pylori is Associated with Autoimmune Thyroid Disease in Iranian Patients
Background: Infectious agents have been suspected as a triggering factor for development of autoimmune thyroid disease (ATD). Some reports from Western countries have suggested association between Helicobacter pylori (HP) infection and ATD. Objective: To investigate the association of ATD with Cag A seropositivity in a population with high rate and early age of onset of HP infection. Methods: I...
متن کامل[Autoantigen BiP and autoimmune diseases].
Immunoglobulin Binding Protein (BiP) is a member of heat shock protein 70 famaily, and is also known as an autoantigen in rheumatoid arthritis (RA) patients. Serum anti-BiP antibody is detected up to 60% of RA patients, and recent reports demonstrated that serum anti-BiP antibody is also detected in systemic lupus erythematosus patients. Notably, anti-citrullinated BiP antibody is revealed as a...
متن کاملNovel Therapies for Thyroid Autoimmune Diseases.
C-X-C chemokine receptor (CXCR)3 and its interferon(IFN)γ-dependent chemokines (CXCL10, CXCL9, CXCL11) are implicated in the immune-pathogenesis of autoimmune thyroiditis (AT), Graves disease (GD) and Graves Ophthalmopathy (GO). In tissue, recruited Th1 lymphocytes produce IFNγ, enhancing the tissue secretion of IFNγ-inducible chemokines, initiating and perpetuating the autoimmune process. Pati...
متن کاملGravin, an autoantigen recognized by serum from myasthenia gravis patients, is a kinase scaffold protein
BACKGROUND Subcellular targeting of protein kinases and phosphatases provides a mechanism for co-localizing these enzymes with their preferred substrates. A recently identified mammalian scaffold protein, AKAP79, controls the location of two broad-specificity kinases and a phosphatase. RESULTS We have identified and characterized another mammalian scaffold protein which coordinates the locati...
متن کاملAutoimmune thyroid disease in patients with rheumatic diseases.
Thyroid function abnormalities and thyroid autoantibodies have been frequently described in patients with rheumatologic autoimmune diseases, such as Sjögren's syndrome, rheumatoid arthritis, systemic lupus erythematosus and scleroderma. Limited data are available regarding the prevalence and clinical characteristics of autoimmune thyroiditis in other rheumatologic disorders, such as rheumatic f...
