Abstract

Autoimmune thyroid diseases (AITDs), such as Graves' hyperthyroidism, are common disorders involving multiple genes and the environment. Some pathogenetic genes are probably shared between these diseases and non-endocrine autoimmune diseases, whereas others are disease specific. Population studies show that major histocompatibility complex alleles and CTLA4 confer risk for AITDs. Genetic studies have identified over 20 potential loci; only one, mapping to 5q31, has been convincingly replicated. Despite its recent emergence as an autoimmunity gatekeeper gene, linkage of CLTA4 to AITDs was described in only one Caucasian population subset. Like in the case of many complex genetic disorders, identifying AITD pathogenetic genes is limited by the ability of data analysis methods to discern the influence of genes of minor effect in a relatively small database.

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.

Autoimmune Polyendocrine Syndromes

This feed focuses on a rare genetic condition called Autoimmune Polyendocrine Syndromes, which are characterized by autoantibodies against multiple endocrine organs. This can lead to Type I Diabetes.
