OBJECTIVES To validate the clinical significance of anti-IFI16 autoantibodies in SSc and assess their associations with serological markers of SSc. METHODS A semi-quantitative ELISA was used to detect anti-IFI16 autoantibodies in the sera of 344 SSc patients from seven Italian hospitals and 144 healthy controls. SSc-associated autoantibodies [anti-RNA polymerase III (anti-RNAP III) antibodies...
BACKGROUND Autoimmune comorbidities and circulating autoantibodies have been observed in vitiligo patients, but differences in rate are present according to countries in which the studies were performed, perhaps owing to ethnic diversities or different trigger factors. OBJECTIVE To estimate the prevalence of circulating autoantibodies and overt autoimmune diseases in a fairly large sample of ...
Pooled normal polyspecific IgG for therapeutic use (IVIg) contain anti-idiotypes against idiotypic determinants expressed by autoantibodies from patients with a variety of autoimmune diseases. In the present study, antiidiotypes in IVIg are shown to recognize a cross-reactive idiotype on human anti-thyroglobulin (TG) autoantibodies, that was defined by heterologous antiidiotypic antibodies, ter...
OBJECTIVE To evaluate the generation of rheumatoid arthritis (RA)-related autoantibodies in the lung. METHODS Simultaneous collection of serum and induced sputum was performed in 21 healthy controls, 49 at-risk subjects without inflammatory arthritis but at risk of RA due to family history or seropositivity for anti-citrullinated protein antibodies, and 14 subjects with early RA. Samples were...
BACKGROUND Sydenham chorea (SC), a neuropsychiatric sequela of group-A streptococcal infection, is associated with basal ganglia autoantibodies. Although autoantibodies have been proposed in neuropsychiatric disorders, little evidence has been shown to link autoimmunity and clinical symptoms. We hypothesized that dopamine receptor-autoantibody interactions may be the basis of neuropsychiatric s...
Bullous pemphigoid (BP) is a blistering skin disease in which autoantibodies develop to hemidesmosomal components of the epidermal basement membrane zone, including two major antigenic proteins of the 230-kD antigen (BPAG1) and the 180-kD antigen (BPAG2). The present study demonstrated the precise ultrastructural localization of the epitopes for autoantibodies against BPAG1 and BPAG2 in normal ...
PURPOSE Eosinophils are frequently found in atopic dermatitis (AD) and chronic spontaneous urticaria (CSU) that release eosinophil peroxidase (EPX) cationic protein (ECP). Continuous exposure to these proteins could trigger an autoimmune response which may contribute the pathogenesis severity of skin inflammation. In this study, we investigate immunoglobulin E (IgE) against CSU AD. METHODS We r...
Autoimmune diseases are considered the 3rd leading cause of morbidity and mortality in the industrialized countries. Autoimmune thyroid diseases (ATDs) are associated with high prevalence of nonorgan-specific autoantibodies, such as antinuclear antibodies (ANA), antidouble-stranded deoxyribonucleic acid (anti-dsDNA), antiextractable-nuclear antigens (anti-ENAs), rheumatoid factor (RF), and anti...
Introduction: Elevated serum interleukin (IL) 6 has been reported in patients infected with the hepatitis C virus (HCV), but it remains debatable whether this influences the production of autoantibodies and the biochemical profile of HCV disease. Therefore, this current study was conducted to evaluate the relationship between IL-6 and circulating autoantibody levels in HCV positive patients. Me...
In bullous pemphigoid (BP), the most prevalent autoimmune blistering disease, type XVII collagen (COL17) is targeted by circulating autoantibodies. BP is thought to be an autoantibody-mediated complement-fixing blistering disease, and a juxtamembranous noncollagenous 16A (NC16A) domain spanning Glu(490) to Arg(566) was proved to be the main pathogenic region on COL17, although precise pathogeni...
