- Many other common diseases are caused by autoimmunity such as juvenile diabetes and low thyroid disease. It has been recently discovered that some persons who suffer with hives or angioedema also have an autoimmune disease. In these cases, autoantibodies have been formed that bind to the Fc-receptor on mast cells.

Autoimmune disease autoimmune disease, one of a large group of diseases characterized by altered function of the immune system of the body, resulting in the production of antibodies against the body's own cells.ome autoimmune disorders, such as Hashimoto's disease, are tissue specific, whereas others, such as SLE, affect multiple organs and systems. Both genetic and environmental triggers may contribute to autoimmune disease. About 5-8% of the U.S. population is affected by an autoimmune disease.

Shared Genetics Between Lupus and Other Autoimmune Diseases For example, patients with an organ-specific autoimmune disease are often found to have more than one. The example of type 1 diabetes may be most instructive; of those with type 1 diabetes, up to 30% have autoimmune thyroid disease, 5% have celiac disease, 10% have vitiligo, and another 10% have pernicious anemia.

asthma Asthma is a chronic (long-lasting) inflammatory disease of the airways. In those susceptible to asthma, this inflammation causes the airways to spasm and swell periodically so that the airways narrow.n an asthma attack, the muscle tissue in the walls of bronchi go into spasm, and the cells lining the airways swell and secrete mucus into the airways. Both these actions cause the bronchi to become narrowed (bronchoconstriction).

Asthma Asthma is a chronic disease that’s caused by the inflammation of the airways. When an asthma attack happens, the muscles around your airways become constricted and the lining around the air passage swells up. This decreases the amount of air that can pass by, thereby affecting your breathing.

In autoimmune disorders that involve the lungs, the immune system attacks and damages lung tissue. Different parts of the lungs can be affected and different symptoms may occur.

Asthma and Allergies A. Asthma and allergies often go hand-in-hand. Asthma is a disease of the branches of the windpipe (bronchial tubes), which carry air in and out of the lungs. There are several different types of asthma. Allergic asthma is a type of asthma that is triggered by an allergy (for example, pollen or mold spores). According to the American Academy of Allergy, Asthma and Immunology, half of the 20 million Americans with asthma have allergic asthma.

Obesity plays major role in triggering autoimmune diseases Autoimmune diseases like Crohn's Disease and multiple sclerosis, in which the immune system attacks its own body rather than predatory invaders, affect 5-20 percent of the global community. A new study points to the major role obesity plays in triggering and prolonging these autoimmune diseases. Share:
