  3. 2. Autoantibodies in healthy blood donors, rheumatic and autoimmune liver diseases

    Författare :Awais Ahmad; Christopher Sjöwall; Charlotte Dahle; Stergios Kechagias; Marco W.J. Schreuers; Linköpings universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES;

    Sammanfattning : Autoimmunity is a common phenomenon where the immune system recognises the body's own tissues. Autoimmunity can lead to disease if tissue damage occurs. Autoimmune diseases affect 5–10% of the global population and in many of these autoantibodies can be detected. The autoantibodies can be detected with several different methods. LÄS MER

    Sammanfattning : Systemic sclerosis (SSc) is a systemic rheumatic disease with significant mortality and morbidity. Different estimations of disease prevalence and incidence have been presented from various parts of the world. LÄS MER

  5. 4. Omic Network Modules in Complex diseases

    Författare :Tejaswi Venkata Satya Badam; Mika Gustafsson; Zelmina Lubovac-Pilav; Maja Jagodic; Sergio Baranzini; Linköpings universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES;

    Sammanfattning : Biological systems encompass various molecular entities such as genes, proteins, and other biological molecules, including interactions among those components. Understanding a given phenotype, the functioning of a cell or tissue, aetiology of disease, or cellular organization, requires accurate measurements of the abundance profiles of these molecular entities in the form of biomedical data.

  7. 5. Autoantibody profiling in autoimmune diseases

    Författare :Shaghayegh Bayati; Peter Nilsson; Elisa Pin; Peter Heeringa; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Autoimmunity; Autoantibodies; Vasculitis; Systemic Sclerosis; affinity proteomics; Biotechnology; Bioteknologi;

    Sammanfattning : Autoimmune disease diagnosis and definition of prognosis can be challenging. Patients with the same autoimmune disease could present with very heterogeneous symptoms. Therefore, there is a need to understand the disease better to improve patients’ diagnosis, and classification, and tailor the treatment. LÄS MER
