The Autoimmune Tautology: From Polyautoimmunity and Familial Autoimmunity to the Autoimmune Genes
(Universidad del Rosario, 2012)
Autoimmune diseases (ADs) are chronic conditions initiated
by the loss of immunological tolerance to self-antigens and
represent a heterogeneous group of disorders that afflict specific
target organs ormultiple organ ...
Association of the TGrI29 microsatellite in thyroglobulin gene with autoimmune thyroiditis in a Argentinian population: a case–control study
(Humana Press, 2010-12)
Autoimmune thyroid disease (AITD) is a multifactorial disorder that involves a putative association with thyroid autoantigen-specific and immune regulatory genes, as well as environmental factors. The thyroglobulin gene ...

(Oat, 2021-04)
Objectives: We aimed to analyze waiting list and liver transplantation trends for autoimmune liver disease in Argentina.Methods: We designed a population-based analysis of waitlisted or liver transplanted patients for ...
Pathogenic role of anti-endothelial cell antibodies in autoimmune rheumatic diseases
(SAGE PUBLICATIONS LTD, 2009)
Anti-endothelial cells antibodies have been detected in numerous autoimmune and inflammatory diseases, including systemic lupus erythematous, rheumatoid arthritis, vasculitis and sarcoidosis. Anti-endothelial cells antibodies ...
Absence of cross-reactivity to myeloperoxidase of anti-thyroid microsomal antibodies in patients with autoimmune thyroid diseases
(Lippincott Williams & Wilkins, 2001-02-01)
Background: Thyroperoxidase is the major antigen of the thyroid microsomal antibodies (TMA) detected in autoimmune thyroid diseases. Its amino acid sequence has 44% homology with myeloperoxidase (MPO), an enzyme present ...
Disorders of apoptosis: Mechanisms for autoimmunity in primary immunodeficiency diseases
(SPRINGER/PLENUM PUBLISHERS, 2008)
A number of primary immunodeficiency diseases represent a paradox of immunodeficiency and autoimmunity. In this minireview, we present basic concepts of apoptosis and disorder of apoptosis as one of the mechanisms to explain ...
