Hindu concept of 'Autoimmune response'
In Hinduism, autoimmune response describes the body's reaction to various triggers. This can lead to the immune system attacking melanocytes, causing skin pigmentation issues. Additionally, it's a factor in conditions like rheumatoid arthritis.

(1) A potential cause of chronic urticaria, though the exact reasons for its occurrence are not entirely clear and understood by researchers and scientists.[1] (2) Autoimmune responses are the body's immune system attacking its own tissues, which is a key factor in the etiology and progression of rheumatoid arthritis.[2]

(1) Majority of patients were habituated to untimely intake of food and intake of food items which are heavy and which do not undergo proper digestion, thus triggers this.[3] (2) This is a reaction that is triggered by various factors, causing the body to target melanocytes and result in progressive skin pigmentation disorders.[4]
The concept of Autoimmune response in scientific sources
Autoimmune response describes the immune system mistakenly attacking the body's tissues. This can manifest in various ways, including skin depigmentation, chronic inflammation, and conditions like myocarditis, rheumatic fever, and diabetes. It is also linked to drug reactions, COVID-19, and other diseases.

(1) An infectious challenge induces glomerulonephritis by triggering this response, resulting in the formation of immune-complex deposits in glomeruli.[5] (2) In the absence of systemic atopy, local allergic rhinitis presents itself as a clinical condition marked by a localized allergic response in the nasal mucosa.[6] (3) Immune reactions against the body's own tissues, which heparin can sometimes trigger, leading to complications.[7] (4) An immune system reaction where the body mistakenly attacks its own tissues, potentially triggered by drugs or their metabolites binding to proteins.[8]

(1) In Sjögren’s syndrome, PTMs in the salivary glands may rely on PAD activity, these modifications suggest that external triggers, such as bacteria or chemical compounds, can activate the PAD pathway, transforming normal proteins into potential autoantigens, this process may stimulate autoimmune class II MHC molecules and autoreactive cell clones, initiating this akin to Sjögren’s syndrome.[9] (2) The text mentions that CTLA-4 blockade initiates T-cell activity that disrupts normal defense.[10] (3) Asymptomatic UGC infection in some men results in this response in hsp 60 and infertility.[11] (4) The study believed through the results that preor post-menopausal serum 17β- E 2 sex hormone balance is a crucial factor in the regulation of immune and inflammatory responses in RA disease.[12]

(1) This may involve circulating auto-antibodies to the myocardium, which may cause increased levels of cytokines and possibly myocarditis in patients with PPCM.[13] (2) The autoimmune response in rheumatoid arthritis patients is characterized by the presence of anti-cyclic citrullinated peptide antibodies, which may precede the onset of disease by up to ten years.[14] (3) These are immune system reactions where the body's own immune system attacks its tissues, such as the thyroid gland, leading to conditions like Grave's disease and Hashimoto's thyroiditis.[15]

(1) During these responses, the increased cell-surface trafficking of DRG neurons depolarises the membrane.[16]

(1) During the pre-screening phase, those proteins were selected that (ii) were not similar to the human proteome as they may generate autoimmune responses.[17] (2) This is a condition that both methylmercury and inorganic mercury can produce, as well as an immunosuppressive effect in several strains of genetically susceptible mice.[18] (3) Increased IL-6, IL-23, and Th-17-related cytokines have a variety of neuroimmunotoxic effects, including activating autoimmune responses and maintaining persistent inflammation.[19] (4) Autoimmune responses are triggered when the virus mimics the structure of some components of the thyroid, leading to immune system attacks on the thyroid gland.[20] (5) The etiology of this disease is still uncertain, but the initial triggering factors are an autoimmune response to local antigens, inducers of cell-mediated hypersensitivity, microorganisms, and even stress.[21]
