The ethiopathologies of autoimmune diseases are complex. A broad variety of cell types and gene products are involved. This book explores clinical and experimental evidence suggesting that the importance of an individual factor changes during the course of the disease. Factors and cell types that induce acute autoreactivity and initiate an autoimmune disease could be distinct from those that drive a chronic course of that disease.
