autoimmune
의미: Relating to a condition in which the body's immune system mistakenly attacks its own healthy cells and tissues, treating them as foreign invaders.
Autoimmune diseases include rheumatoid arthritis, type 1 diabetes, multiple sclerosis, lupus, and coeliac disease. They affect roughly four million people in the UK and are more common in women. The causes are not fully understood but involve a combination of genetic predisposition and environmental triggers. Treatment typically aims to suppress or modulate the immune response. The term collocates with 'disease,' 'disorder,' 'condition,' 'response,' and 'inflammation.'
