Pre-eclampsia, autoimmune diseases and breast cancer etiology

Medical Hypotheses
A P Polednak

Abstract

Previous hypotheses concerning the negative association between pre-eclampsia (or pregnancy-induced hypertension) and breast cancer risk have focused on hormone-related factors. A hypothesis is presented that certain non-specific cellular immune responses could be involved in this association and in the negative association between autoimmune diseases (i.e., systemic lupus erythematosus and rheumatoid arthritis) and certain cancers. Future directions for epidemiological and laboratory research suggested by this hypothesis are discussed.

Autoimmune Diseases

Autoimmune diseases occur as a result of an attack by the immune system on the body’s own tissues resulting in damage and dysfunction. There are different types of autoimmune diseases, in which there is a complex and unknown interaction between genetics and the environment. Discover the latest research on autoimmune diseases here.
