A bioinformatics analysis reveals novel pathogens as molecular mimicry triggers of systemic sclerosis
(2020)A recent bioinformatic analysis revealing dominant B cell epitopes of systemic sclerosis-specific autoantibodies, including anti-centromere B, anti-topoisomerase I and anti-fibrillarin, has demonstrated the existence of ... -
Drug-Induced Skin Adverse Reactions: The Role of Pharmacogenomics in Their Prevention
(2018)Adverse drug reactions (ADRs) affect many patients and remain a major public health problem, as they are a common cause of morbidity and mortality. It is estimated that ADRs are responsible for about 6% of hospital admissions ... -
Evaluation of specific immune responses to BoNT/A and tetanus toxoid in patients undergoing treatment for neurologic disorders
(2012)Botulinum neurotoxins (BoNTs) are used in the treatment of many neurological disorders. The primary structure of BoNTs shows a high degree of homology with the tetanus neurotoxin, the toxoid of which is used as a vaccine. ... -
Humoral response in experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis targets neural precursor cells in the central nervous system of naive rodents
(2017)Background: Neural precursor cells (NPCs) located in the subventricular zone (SVZ), a well-defined NPC niche, play a crucial role in central nervous system (CNS) homeostasis. Moreover, NPCs are involved in the endogenous ... -
The infectious basis of ACPA-positive rheumatoid arthritis
(2017)Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is associated with HLA-DRB1 shared epitope (HLA-DRB1SE) and anti-citrullinated protein autoantibodies (ACPAs). ACPAs precedes the onset of clinical and subclinical RA. There are strong data for ... -
Infectious triggers of primary biliary cirrhosis: Do we know enough?
(2011)Primary biliary cirrhosis (PBC) is an immune mediated liver disease directed against the biliary epithelial cells of the small bile ducts. The disease is characterised by circulating antimitochondrial antibodies (AMA), as ... -

Multiple viral/self immunological cross-reactivity in liver kidney microsomal antibody positive hepatitis C virus-infected patients is associated with the possession of HLA B51
(2004)Liver Kidney Microsomal autoantibody type 1(LKM1) directed to cytochrome P4502D6 (CYP2D6) characterises autoimmune hepatitis type-2 (AIH-2), but is also found in a proportion of chronic hepatitis C virus (HCV) infected ... -
Platelets in Systemic Sclerosis: the Missing Link Connecting Vasculopathy, Autoimmunity, and Fibrosis?
(2019)Purpose of Review: Platelets are no longer recognized solely as cell fragments regulating hemostasis. They have pleiotropic functions and they are linked directly or indirectly with the three cornerstones of systemic ... -
Primary biliary cirrhosis is characterized by IgG3 antibodies cross-reactive with the major mitochondrial autoepitope and its lactobacillus mimic
(2005)The serological hallmark of primary biliary cirrhosis (PBC) is the presence of pyruvate dehydrogenase complex E2 subunit (PDC-E2) antimitochondrial antibodies (AMAs). Anti-PDC-E2 antibodies cross-react specifically with ... -
Serological Evidence of Pandemic H1N1 Influenza Virus Infections in Greek Swine
(2016)The introduction of the 2009 pandemic H1N1 (pH1N1) influenza virus in pigs changed the epidemiology of influenza A viruses (IAVs) in swine in Europe and the rest of the world. Previously, three IAV subtypes were found in ... -
Validated analysis of HIF-1α expression in cancer cells using a controlled and comparative immunoassay
(2010)The immunoreactivity of hypoxia inducible factor 1 α (HIF-1α) has been considered a reliable indicator of the HIF-1 pathway activation in tissue hypoxia. However, HIF-1α immunoreactivity has been evaluated with different ...
