Infectome: A platform to trace infectious triggers of autoimmunity
(2013)The "exposome" is a term recently used to describe all environmental factors, both exogenous and endogenous, which we are exposed to in a lifetime. It represents an important tool in the study of autoimmunity, complementing ... -
Interleukin-15 (IL-15) and Anti-C1q Antibodies as Serum Biomarkers for Ectopic Pregnancy and Missed Abortion
(2013)Given the present lack of clinically useful tests for the accurate diagnosis of ectopic pregnancy (EP), there is a need to select out those immunological factors measured in the maternal serum, as potential biomarkers. Our ... -
Microbial mimics are major targets of crossreactivity with human pyruvate dehydrogenase in primary biliary cirrhosis
(2004)Background/Aims: Previous studies on patients with primary biliary cirrhosis (PBC) have shown extensive cross-reactivity between the dominant B- and T-cell epitopes of human pyruvate dehydrogenase complex-E2 (PDC-E2), and ... -
Presence of high avidity anticardiolipin antibodies in patients with autoimmune cholestatic liver diseases
(2006)We studied the prevalence and clinical significance of anticardiolipin antibodies (aCL) in primary biliary cirrhosis (PBC) and primary sclerosing cholangitis (PSC) as similar data are missing. Ninety-nine PBC patients, 41 ... -
Prevalence and clinical significance of anticardiolipin antibodies in patients with type 1 autoimmune hepatitis
(2005)There are few case reports on the association between autoimmune hepatitis (AIH) and anticardiolipin antibodies (anti-CLAbs) and/or antiphospholipid syndrome (APLS). We studied the anti-CLAbs prevalence in AIH and other ... -
Prevalence and clinical significance of immunoglobulin A antibodies against tissue transglutaminase in patients with diverse chronic liver diseases
(2005)The prevalence of celiac disease (CD) and the prevalence and clinical significance of anti-tissue transglutaminase (tTG) antibodies (tTGAbs) in a large series of patients with chronic liver diseases were assessed. We studied ... -
Prevalence and clinical significance of isotype specific antinuclear antibodies in primary biliary cirrhosis
(2005)Background: Antinuclear antibodies (ANA) giving a rim-like/membranous (RL/M) or a multiple nuclear dot (MND) pattern are highly specific for primary biliary cirrhosis (PBC). Aim and subjects: To assess the prevalence of ... -
Prevalence of gastric parietal cell antibodies and intrinsic factor antibodies in primary biliary cirrhosis
(2010)Background: We investigated the prevalence of antibodies against gastric parietal cells (GPA), intrinsic factor antibodies (IFA) and the presence of pernicious anemia in a large cohort of primary biliary cirrhosis (PBC) ... -
Psychiatric factors in patients with ulcerative colitis according to disease activity
(1996)In order to examine psychiatric symptoms, hostility and stressful life events in patients suffering from Ulcerative Colitis (UC) during the phases of active disease and remission, a consecutive sample of twenty five UC ...
