CD5+ B Cells and DiseaseAutoimmune diseases are conditions where the immune system attacks the body organs instead of foreign invaders. This book deals with the various mechanisms by which infectious agents can trigger autoimmunity such as molecular mimicry and polyclonal activation. An overview is given with regard to bacteria, viruses, and parasites associated with autoimmunity, and a summary is given on classical autoimmune diseases and the infecting agents that can induce them.Includes completely updated and new chaptersBrings the reader up to date and allows easy access to individual topics in one placeIdentifieAutoimmune diseasesimmunology.InfectionsimmunologyElectronic books.Autoimmune diseasesimmunology..Infectionsimmunology.616.97/8Shoenfeld Yehuda1948-Agmon-Levin NancyRose Noel R.MiAaPQBOOK996426329203316Infection and autoimmunity1922101UNISA
