Abstract

Autoimmune diseases are characterized by the immune system's aberrant attack on healthy body tissues, mistaking them for foreign invaders. This paper explores the complex etiologies and mechanisms underlying autoimmune responses, highlighting the interplay between genetic predispositions, environmental triggers, and lifestyle factors. We review recent advancements in the diagnosis and therapeutic approaches, including personalized medicine and biologic treatments, that offer improved outcomes for patients. Furthermore, the role of the microbiome in modulating immune responses and potential preventive strategies are discussed. By integrating current research, this review aims to provide insights into the multifaceted nature of autoimmune diseases and pave the way for innovative treatment strategies.
