Viral Triggers of Autoimmune Diseases: Molecular Mechanisms and Sex-Specific Immune Responses - A Comprehensive Review

2025-12-25

Abstract excerpt

Autoimmune diseases affect approximately 5–8% of the global population and disproportionately impact females. While genetic susceptibility contributes to disease risk, environmental factors—particularly viral infections—are increasingly recognized as critical triggers of autoimmune pathogenesis. Viruses such as Epstein–Barr virus (EBV), cytomegalovirus (CMV), influenza, and SARS-CoV-2 have been associated with the...
