Immunologic derangement preceding clinical autoimmunity
(Sage Publications Ltd, 2014-10-01)Autoantibodies are valuable markers for the recognition of autoimmune diseases. Over the last 25 years, several investigators have consistently shown that autoantibodies precede the clinical onset of cognate diseases by ...

International recommendations for the assessment of autoantibodies to cellular antigens referred to as anti-nuclear antibodies
(Bmj Publishing Group, 2014-01-01)Anti-nuclear antibodies (ANA) are fundamental for the diagnosis of autoimmune diseases, and have been determined by indirect immunofluorescence assay (IIFA) for decades. As the demand for ANA testing increased, alternative ...

Marcadores genéticos e auto-imunes do diabetes melito tipo 1: da teoria para a prática
(Sociedade Brasileira de Endocrinologia e Metabologia, 2008-03-01)Type 1 A diabetes mellitus (T1AD) results from the autoimmune destruction of the insulin producing pancreatic beta-cells. The largest contribution to genetic susceptibility comes from several genes located in the major ...
