Aims & Scope✦ Inferred from recent articles

The Journal of Autoimmunity publishes research on the mechanisms, diagnosis, and treatment of autoimmune diseases. Articles focus on genetic predispositions, such as HLA haplotypes in Latent Autoimmune Diabetes in Adults (LADA) and polygenic risk scores in Systemic Lupus Erythematosus (SLE). The journal also covers the role of posttranslational modifications (PTMs) in autoimmune conditions like multiple sclerosis, and the impact of autoantibodies and biomarkers in diseases such as myositis and antiphospholipid syndrome (APS). Additionally, research explores clinical manifestations, disease complications, and therapeutic strategies, including the effects of diet, antiviral therapy, and novel approaches like nanomedicines and machine learning for personalized treatment.
