          Trigger For Autoimmune Disease Identified

          Researchers have discovered a possible trigger for autoimmune diseases such as lupus, Crohn's disease and MS. Findings may explain how women are more susceptible to autoimmune disorders than men.

          Researchers pinpoint genes behind sex biases in autoimmune disorders and schizophrenia

          A new study reveals why women are more likely to develop autoimmune conditions like lupus and Sjögren's syndrome, and men are more likely to develop schizophrenia. Researchers implicated the C4 gene in sex-based risk factors for autoimmune and psychiatric disorders.

          Skin discovery may help explain why women get autoimmune diseases far more often than men

          Skin cells may hold the key to explaining why women are more prone to developing autoimmune diseases, such as lupus than men. Researchers found women have more VGLL3 in their skin cells than men. VGLL3 pushes the immune system into overdrive, resulting in the 'self-attacking' autoimmune response, the mouse study revealed. Findings strongly implicate VGLL3 as a pivotal catalyst in sex-based autoimmunity.

          Pain and Anxiety Should Be Dealt With Soon After Multiple Sclerosis Diagnosis

          In the first year after a diagnosis of multiple sclerosis, 60% of patients experience fatigue, 50% experience pain, 47% have symptoms of depression, and 39% report increased anxiety. Researchers say urgent, non-pharmaceutical therapies should be provided for newly diagnosed MS patients to help reduce both pain and mental health symptoms.

          B cells off the rails early in lupus

          A key finding in the origins of lupus has been discovered. In those with systemic lupus erythematosus, B cells are abnormally activated. This results in the production of antibodies which react against the patient's own tissue, causing a range of symptoms including rashes, joint pain, and fatigue.
