  1. 1. The role of autoantibodies in inflammatory myopathies

    Författare :Sevim Barbasso Helmers; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :Idiopathic inflammatory myopathies; polymyositis; dermatomyositis; inclusion body myositis; ILD; IVIG; IFN; BAFF; endothelial cells; anti-Jo-1;

    Sammanfattning : Polymyositis (PM), dermatomyositis (DM) and inclusion body myositis (IBM), collectively called myositis, are chronic inflammatory myopathies. These disease subsets are heterogeneous but share some features, such as skeletal muscle weakness and inflammatory cell infiltrates in muscle tissue. LÄS MER

  3. 2. Interstitial lung disease in polymyositis and dermatomyositis

    Författare :Maryam Fathi; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :dermatomyositis; polymyositis; interstitial lung disease;

    Sammanfattning : Polymyositis and dermatomyositis are rare disease entities affecting skeletal muscle and other organs such as the lungs. Interstitial lung disease (ILD) is increasingly recognized as a serious complication of poly-/dermatomyositis. LÄS MER

  4. 3. Autoantibodies and the type I interferon system in idiopathic inflammatory myopathies

    Författare :Louise Ekholm; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Idiopathic inflammatory myopathies (IIM), also known as myositis, are rare autoimmune diseases, characterized by proximal muscle weakness and inflammatory cells in skeletal muscle tissue. The most common subgroups are polymyositis (PM), dermatomyositis (DM) and inclusion body myositis (IBM). LÄS MER

  5. 4. Characterization of immune specificities in idiopathic inflammatory myopathies

    Författare :Angeles Shunashy Galindo-Feria; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Idiopathic inflammatory myopathies (IIM or myositis) are a group of rheumatic autoimmune diseases characterised by skeletal muscle inflammation and weakness, and are associated with high morbidity and mortality. The diagnosis integrates several subgroups of muscular disorders with autoimmune backgrounds, where identifying myositis-specific and associated autoantibodies play an essential role. LÄS MER

  7. 5. Mixed connective tissue disease, myositis and systemic lupus erythematosus : immunological and genetic studies in three related rheumatic autoimmune studies

    Författare :Adla Bakri Hassan; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :MCTD; SLE; PM DM; autoantibodies; cytokines; MHC; polymorphisms.;

    Sammanfattning : Mixed connective tissue disease (MCTD), polymyositis (PM)/ dermatomyositis (DM) and systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) are chronic, rheumatic, systemic inflammatory disorders. The disorders depend on several factors of both genetic and environmental origin. LÄS MER
