haigus, mille põhjuseks on oma keha antigeenide vastu suunatud immuunreaktsioon
haigus, mis on põhjustatud immuunsüsteemi rünnakust keha enda rakkude ja kudede vastu
an ailment caused by an immune response against an individual's own tissues or cells
a disease resulting from a disordered immune reaction in which antibodies are produced against one's own tissues, as systemic lupus erythematosus or rheumatoid arthritis

Autoimmune diseases are divided into two classes: organ-specific and systemic. An organ-specific disease is one in which an immune response is directed toward antigens in a single organ. Examples are Addison disease, in which autoantibodies attack the adrenal cortex, and myasthenia gravis, in which they attack neuromuscular cells. In systemic diseases the immune system attacks self antigens in several organs. Systemic lupus erythematosus, for example, is characterized by inflammation of the skin, joints, and kidneys, among other organs.
Teadlased ei tea, mis autoimmuunhaigust põhjustab, kuid mitmed teooriad osutavad üliaktiivsele immuunsüsteemile, mis ründab keha pärast nakkust või vigastust ...
Some autoimmune diseases are triggered by specific, identifiable stimuli. Multiple medications can cause SLE and different types of vasculitis. Hepatitis B virus infection can cause polyarteritis nodosa, and hepatitis C infection is a very common cause of cryoglobulinemia with associated vasculitis.
