This is a very informative association to belong to get notifications of upcoming events as well updates on autoimmune diseases.

World-first therapy using donor cells sends autoimmune diseases into remission. Three people with severe autoimmune diseases are in remission after being treated with bioengineered and CRISPR-modified immune cells called chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T cells.

We will be joined by members of The Wren Project, a fantastic initiative that offers listening support to people living with autoimmune diseases throughout the UK. For more info, please visit: https://nras.org.uk/event/nras-live-the-wren-project/

The CoVADStudy team request your help to understand wellbeing of people with autoimmune diseases. Both patients with autoimmune or rheumatic disease and members of your family and friends can take part in this survey.

Crohn’s, colitis), Type 1 diabetes, Thyroid disease, Stiff Person Syndrome, and other autoimmune diseases • Participants are welcome from all countries.

It is supposed to help with autoimmune diseases.

NRAS are supporting the promotion of the University of Cambridge survey (https://bit.ly/MM_PATIENTS2024). The survey asks about your medical relationships, disease symptoms, and health. It should take around 30 minutes to complete (you can pause or stop at any time). We are supporting this study as it

For example, having a family member with lupus or multiple sclerosis (MS) raises your risk of getting these diseases. Some families have multiple members affected by different autoimmune diseases. However, genetics alone isn’t enough to cause autoimmune disease.

We are particularly short of men and people of colour with autoimmune diseases: - If you have ANY autoimmune disease, please click on this link https://bit.ly/MM_PATIENTS2024 to access the autoimmune survey and information sheet.

I have recently also become more interested in the interrelationships between various autoimmune diseases.

Cell Therapy for Cancer Now Targeting Autoimmune Diseases Study finds that in autoimmune disease patients, CAR-T cell therapy stopped B cell development for a few months. When new healthy B cells were generated, this essentially reset the immune system.

Dear PA members - there seems to be many articles about negative and positive impacts of coffee/caffeine on autoimmune diseases. Does anyone know /researched if coffee has a negative or positive impact on AG PA? Its not clear. Many thanks

I also have 2 other autoimmune diseases. But he claims the inflammation is due to reflux and/or gastritis. He also claims that an upper endoscopy is not used for diagnosing crohns, but I have read that crohns can affect any section of the digestive system.

Other autoimmune diseases include lupus, rheumatoid arthritis, celiac, sjogrens syndrome, multiple sclerosis, polymyalgia rheumatica, Type 1 diabetes, alopecia areata, vasculitis, and inflammatory bowel disease - there are more than 80 of them.

how many of you suffer of autoimmune diseases together with Endo/Adeno? And how are you handle these? Thank you in advance for sharing your stories ❤️

Just came across this and thought the findings may go some way towards explaining why some vaccinations seem to cause autoimmune responses, like new-onset PMR, in certain individuals. Not so much the substance which triggers the immune response, but adjuvant added to increase such reponse. (A postscript

I have autoimmune thyroid disease, and suspected autoimmune cause for my early menopause, and I'm acutely aware that autoimmune diseases seem to beget autoimmune diseases! I also had a difficult time with my GP so I'd rather not bother them until I have to.
