Autoinflammatory diseases (AIDs) are a group of rare disorders caused by dysfunction of the innate immune system. These responses are characterized by periodic or chronic systemic inflammation , usually without the involvement of adaptive immunity.
As of 2017 the cause of the disease was not understood. [1] A 2024 review by Braud and Lipsker aimed to "describe what is currently known about the pathogenesis of this peculiar disease, as well as to address its diagnosis and management" and concluded that "physiopathology of Schnitzler syndrome remains elusive" and "the main question regarding the relationship between the autoinflammatory ...
This article provides a list of autoimmune diseases. These conditions, where the body's immune system mistakenly attacks its own cells, affect a range of organs and systems within the body. Each disorder is listed with the primary organ or body part that it affects and the associated autoantibodies that are typically found in people diagnosed ...
Doss porphyria/ALA dehydratase deficiency/Plumboporphyria (the disease is known by multiple names) ALD Alcoholic liver disease: ALI Acute lung injury: ALL Acute lymphoblastic lymphoma, acute lymphocytic leukemia: ALS Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis: AMD Age-related macular degeneration: AML Acute myelogenous leukemia: AN Anorexia nervosa: AOCD
It encompasses a spectrum of three clinically overlapping autoinflammatory syndromes including familial cold autoinflammatory syndrome (FCAS, formerly termed familial cold-induced urticaria), the Muckle–Wells syndrome (MWS), and neonatal-onset multisystem inflammatory disease (NOMID, also called chronic infantile neurologic cutaneous and ...
Periodic fever syndromes are a set of disorders characterized by recurrent episodes of systemic and organ-specific inflammation.Unlike autoimmune disorders such as systemic lupus erythematosus, in which the disease is caused by abnormalities of the adaptive immune system, people with autoinflammatory diseases do not produce autoantibodies or antigen-specific T or B cells.
Autoinflammatory syndromes are a group of inherited disorders characterized by innate immune system dysregulation often manifesting with bouts of inflammatory skin lesions and periodic fevers The main article for this category is Periodic fever syndrome .
This disease was first described in 2014. [3] In 2017 a group led by Dr. Jonathan Miner generated the first mouse model of SAVI. Dr. Miner's research team used CRISPR/Cas9 genome editing to introduce a mutation into the mouse STING gene (STING1) [4] that was analogous to a human SAVI-associated mutation.
