<strong>A General Theory of Autoimmune Disease Causation: Integrating Innate and Adaptive Immunity, Altered Antigen Processing, Sex and Genetic Predispositions, and Microbiome Effects</strong>

2019-06-04

Abstract excerpt

Current theories of autoimmunity are diverse, sometimes contradictory, and suffer from incompleteness. Although substantial evidence exists that adaptive and innate immunity, sex, genetic predisposition, and the microbiome all play essential roles in autoimmune disease etiologies and pathogenesis, and that antigen processing is altered during disease induction, no existing theory integrates all of these factors th...
