Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
This Special Issue, dedicated to autoimmunity, attempts to present a comprehensive overview of autoimmune diseases (ADs) and how the immune system self-targets in different conditions according to a balance determined by the genetic predisposition of the host, its gender, epigenetic factors, environmental circumstances, and other co-factors. Moreover, current knowledge from human and animal models is welcome regarding the pathogenic mechanisms of autoimmune diseases, clinical aspects of specific autoimmune diseases, as well as insights regarding biomarkers and specific therapies.
