Testis-expressed protein TSGA10 an auto-antigen in autoimmune polyendocrine syndrome type I.
Autoimmune polyendocrine syndrome type 1 (APS1) is a rare monogenic autosomal recessive disorder. Autoimmune gonadal failure is often one of its features. The aim of this study was to identify targets of immune reactions associated with male autoimmune hypogonadism in APS1. Human testis cDNA expression library immunoscreening with APS1 patients' sera identified the protein testis-specific prote...
متن کاملOral microbiota in autoimmune polyendocrine syndrome type 1
Background: Autoimmune polyendocrine syndrome type-1 (APS-1) is a rare, childhood onset disease caused by mutations in the Autoimmune Regulator gene. The phenotypic expression is highly variable and includes disease manifestations in the oral cavity, including mucocutaneous candidiasis. Increasing evidence suggests a potential role of the skin, oral and gut microbiotas in the pathogenesis of au...
متن کاملPituitary autoantibodies in autoimmune polyendocrine syndrome type 1.
Autoimmune polyendocrine syndrome type 1 (APS1) is a rare autosomal recessive disorder caused by mutations in the autoimmune regulator (AIRE) gene. High titer autoantibodies (Aabs) toward intracellular enzymes are a hallmark for APS1 and serve as diagnostic markers and predictors for disease manifestations. In this study, we aimed to identify pituitary autoantigens in patients with APS1. A pitu...
متن کاملThe transcription factors SOX9 and SOX10 are vitiligo autoantigens in autoimmune polyendocrine syndrome type I.
Vitiligo is common in the hereditary disorder autoimmune polyendocrine syndrome type I (APS I). Patients with APS I are known to have high titer autoantibodies directed against various tissue-specific antigens. Using sera from APS I patients for immunoscreening of a cDNA library from human scalp, we identified the transcription factors SOX9 and SOX10 as novel autoantigens related to this syndro...
متن کاملAutoantibodies against aromatic L-amino acid decarboxylase in autoimmune polyendocrine syndrome type I.
Patients with autoimmune polyendocrine syndrome type I (APS I) have autoantibodies against the enzyme aromatic L-amino acid decarboxylase (AADC) of pancreatic beta-cells. The aim of the present study was to investigate the presence of anti-AADC antibodies in a large cohort of patients with APS I, and in patients with isolated insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (IDDM). We found autoantibodies a...
