Autoimmune Disease: an illness that causes the immune system to produce antibodies that attack normal body tissues. When your body attacks itself, It sees part of your body as a disease and tries to combat it.

We have been developing methods to target drugs specifically to pathologic cells, thereby avoiding collateral toxicity to healthy cells. In the case of cancer, we have exploited up-regulation...
Over the past decade, there has been a rapid growth in studies of secreted membrane vesicles, collectively called extracellular vesicles (EVs). (1) The release of EVs has been reported in the...
Innate Lymphoid Cells (ILC) are lymphocytes that share the same morphological features of classical lymphocytes. They lack specific antigen receptors (Spits and Cupedo Annu Rev Immunol 2012)....
Hyperthyroidism is an autoimmune disorder caused by the thyroid stimulating antibody (TSI), active against the thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH) receptor, which stimulates the gland to synthe...

Among many surprising insights, the genomic revolution has helped us to realize that we're never alone and, in fact, barely human. For most of our lives, we share our bodies with some ten ti...

Statins are among the most commonly prescribed medications that significantly reduce cardiovascular risk in selected individuals. However, these drugs can also be associated with muscle symp...
In this presentation I describe pathway based analyses of genotyping data to identify pathways related to the development of complex diseases, with a focus on lung cancer and selected autoimm...
RA is a chronic autoimmune disease that if left untreated results in severe joint destruction. It is estimated that 30-50% of patients will end up on workplace disability within 5 years of di...
Traditional testing methods for monoclonal protein in Plasma Cell Dyscrasias correctly identify a majority of patients. However, limitations in these methods can cause patients to be missed...
