Unhealthy pathobiome in the brain could cause some forms of Alzheimer's and related dementias

The human microbiome includes the genetic material of more than 100 trillion tiny microorganisms – fungi, yeast, bacteria, and even viruses, most of which hang out in our gastrointestinal tract to serve as guardians of our health.

“Inverse vaccine” shows promise to reverse autoimmune diseases without shutting down rest of the immune system

A new type of vaccine developed by researchers at the University of Chicago's Pritzker School of Molecular Engineering (PME) has shown in the lab setting that it can completely reverse autoimmune diseases like multiple sclerosis, type 1 diabetes, and Crohn's disease -; all without shutting down the rest of the immune system.

Is DNA methylation the missing link in diagnosing and treating psoriasis and psoriatic arthritis?

Researchers across Europe have delved into the DNA methylation patterns in CD4+ T-cells of psoriasis and psoriatic arthritis (PsA) patients, unveiling potential new biomarkers for these conditions. Their study suggests that these unique profiles could serve as both diagnostic and prognostic tools, although further validation is needed for real-world clinical application.

Scientists elucidate mechanism behind early loss of vaccination protection in people with autoimmune disease

People who are treated with TNF-α inhibitors for their autoimmune disease such as Crohn's disease or rheumatoid arthritis lose their vaccination protection significantly earlier than average.

COVID-19 associated with increased risk of developing various autoimmune diseases and risk could be attenuated by vaccination

COVID-19 can increase the risk of various autoimmune diseases; however, this risk appears to be mitigated by vaccination against COVID-19.

Novel antibody could be safer and more effective than existing treatments for autoimmune diseases

Researchers have shown that a novel antibody generated to target an 'essential amino acid sequence' of both interleukin-17A and F has greater activity and potentially fewer side effects than existing biological therapies for conditions such as as rheumatoid arthritis (RA), psoriasis, and inflammatory bowel disease (IBD).

Study examines shared genetic etiology of chronic diseases and links leukocyte telomere length to heart failure risk

Study finds that patients with systemic autoimmune rheumatic diseases had a lower antibody response than healthy controls after Omicron infection

Study investigated if patients with systemic autoimmune rheumatic diseases (SARDs) have a reduced immunological response.
