Anti-C1q autoantibodies are frequently detected in patients with systemic sclerosis associated with pulmonary fibrosis
(2019)Background: Anti-C1q autoantibodies (autoAbs) are associated with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), but their presence in other rheumatic diseases has not been adequately investigated. Objectives: We aimed to assess ... -
Anti-Ro52 antibody is highly prevalent and a marker of better prognosis in patients with ovarian cancer
(2021)Background and Aims: Anti-Ro52 antibody (Ab) reactivity is highly prevalent in autoimmune rheumatic diseases (ARDs), mainly Sjögren's syndrome (SjS) and systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), but also in other inflammatory ... -
Anti-Ro60 Seropositivity Determines Anti-Ro52 Epitope Mapping in Patients With Systemic Sclerosis
(2018)Epitope mapping of anti-Ro52 antibodies (Abs) has been extensively studied in patients with Sjögren's syndrome (SjS) and systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). Comprehensive epitope mapping in systemic sclerosis (SSc), where ... -
Autoantibodies and autoantigens associated with autoimmune hepatitis and viruses-induced autoimmune response: Significant tools in clinical practice and in the study of pathogenesis of autoimmune hepatic diseases
(2004)Autoimmune hepatitis (AIH) is a chronic necroinflammatory disease of the liver characterized by hypergamma-globulinemia, characteristic autoantibodies, association with HLA DR3 or DR4 and a favorable response to immunosuppressive ... -
Autoantibodies and autoantigens in autoimmune hepatitis: Important tools in clinical practice and to study pathogenesis of the disease
(2004)Autoimmune hepatitis (AIH) is a chronic necroinflammatory disease of the liver characterized by hypergammaglobulinemia, characteristic autoantibodies, association with HLA DR3 or DR4 and a favorable response to immunosuppressive ... -
Autoantibodies and SARS-CoV2 infection: The spectrum from association to clinical implication: Report of the 15th Dresden Symposium on Autoantibodies
(2022)The relation between infections and autoimmune diseases has been extensively investigated. Multiple studies suggest a causal relation between these two entities with molecular mimicry, hyperstimulation and dysregulation ... -
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 ... -
Diagnostic and clinical significance of antigen-specific pancreatic antibodies in inflammatory bowel diseases: A meta-analysis
(2020)BACKGROUND Non-invasive criteria are needed for Crohn’s disease (CD) diagnosis, with several biomarkers being tested. Results of individual diagnostic test accuracy studies assessing the diagnostic value of pancreatic ... -
Disease-related autoantibody profile in patients with systemic sclerosis
(2017)Background: Autoantibodies (autoAbs) help in diagnosis and predicting clinical phenotypes in systemic sclerosis (SSc). Aim of the study: To determine the clinical utility of 13 SSc-related autoAbs in SSc patients. Material ... -
Epigenetic, genetic and maternal effects enable stable centromere inheritance
(2022)Centromeres are defined epigenetically by the histone H3 variant CENP-A. The propagation cycle by which pre-existing CENP-A nucleosomes serve as templates for nascent assembly predicts the epigenetic memory of weakened ... -
From microbiome to infectome in autoimmunity
(2017)Purpose of review The current review discusses the pros and cons of the microbiome studies conducted in search of the association between microbiota and autoimmunity. Recent findings We focus on the role of infectome and ... -
Human cytomegalovirus (HCMV) UL44 and UL57 specific antibody responses in anti-HCMV-positive patients with systemic sclerosis
(2017)The role of human cytomegalovirus (HCMV) has been postulated as a trigger of systemic sclerosis (SSc). The aim of the study was to assess the prevalence of antibodies against HCMV UL44 and UL57 antigens not tested in the ... -
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 ... -
Molecular diagnostics of primary billary cirrhosis
(2008)Background: Primary biliary cirrhosis (PBC) is an autoimmune liver disease of unknown etiology characterized by the presence of antimitochondrial antibodies (AMA) in 90 - 95% of patients. AMA are directed against members ... -
Multiparametric autoantibody profiling of patients with systemic sclerosis in Greece
(2018)Background: Systemic sclerosis (SSc) is an autoimmune rheumatic disease characterized by a wide range of disease-specific and disease-related autoantibodies (autoAbs). Profile assays have been developed and are currently ...
