Immunity has been a boon to mankind for surviving natural odds over the period. On the contrary, autoimmunity has been a challenge for us towards sustaining a better life. The increment in cases with different autoimmune disorders is alarming and demands urgent attention from the existing research community and medical personnel. The situation is urging the researchers and medical practitioners to come out with a better treatment regime and find remedy.
Aims & Scope
The rising need of proper scientific information resources pertaining to the autoimmune disorders associated conditions allowed us to establish a global scientific, open access discussion platform as Journal of Autoimmune Disorders. This journal is a peer reviewed periodical which considers article in the mode of a research, review, short communication, case study etc. from the eminent and expert authors.
Under the journal scope, all aspect of autoimmune disorders associated research and scientific information will be considered.
Studies on several diseases which are in connection to certain autoimmune condition, such as Addison's disease, Celiac disease - sprue (gluten-sensitive enteropathy), Dermatomyositis, Graves' disease, Hashimoto's thyroiditis, Multiple sclerosis, Myasthenia gravis, Pernicious anemia, Reactive arthritis, Rheumatoid arthritis, Sjogren syndrome, Systemic lupus erythematosus, Type I diabetes will be considered for publication.
Although several important topics are mentioned, yet the journal will not be limiting the consideration for publication, other allied topics will be considered if found suitable under the wide scope of the journal.
Authors are encouraged to share their ideas and valuable research outcomes through this platform and provide the global readers updated and most important information in this regard.
The journal is using Editor Manager System for well-ordered submission to publication functioning for the authors, reviewers and editors.
Multiple sclerosis
Multiple sclerosis is an autoimmune disease where immune system attacks the myelin sheath which covers the brain nerves. Multiple sclerosis results in disrupt communication in between brain and the rest of the body. Brain nerves start deteriorating and cause an irreversible damage. Affected person loses the ability to walk independently, loss of vision, etc. are the effects of MS.

Rheumatoid Arthritis
Rheumatoid Arthritis is a chronic, systemic inflammatory disorder that primarily affects joints. It may result in deformed and painful joints, which can lead to loss of function. The disease may also have signs and symptoms in organs other than joints. This creates inflammation that causes the tissue that lines the inside of joints (the synovium) to thicken, resulting in swelling and pain in and around the joints. The synovium makes a fluid that lubricates joints and helps them move smoothly.
Type I diabetes
The more extreme form of diabetes is type 1, or insulin-dependent diabetes. It’s mostly called “juvenile” diabetes, because type 1 diabetes generally spreads in children and teenagers, although it can develop at any age.

Lupus
Lupus is an autoimmune disease, which means that the immune system mistakes the body's own tissues as foreign invaders and attacks them and it causes swelling (inflammation) and a wide variety of symptoms. Lupus is of three type. Discoid lupus erythematosus—causes a skin rash that doesn't go away. Subacute cutaneous lupus erythematosus—causes skin sores on parts of the body exposed to sun. Drug-induced lupus—can be caused by medications Neonatal lupus—a rare type of lupus that affects new-born’s.

Reactive arthritis
It is signified as an autoimmune condition that produces in response to an infection in other section of the body i.e. cross reactivity. The disease is trigger by infection or in contact of the bacteria. Arthritis usually coupled with other normal symptoms; this is called Reiter’s syndrome, Reiter’s disease or Reiter’s arthritis.
Hashimoto's disease
Hashimoto's disease is a chronic disorder of autoimmune disease. In this disorder immune system attacks the healthy tissues mistakenly. Thyroid gland is attacked by immune system mistakenly where the production of thyroid hormones is reduced. Hashimoto’s disease also leads to Underactive production of thyroid hormones which is also known as hypothyroidism.

Autoimmune Ganglionopathy
It is an antibody mediated neurological disorder which leads to the patient immune system to originate ganglionic AChR antibodies, preventing ganglionic AChR currents as well as weakening mediation in autonomic ganaglia. Its symptoms include: Postural Tachycardia Syndrome; gastrointestinal dysmotility; anhidrosis; bladder dysfunction; Small fiber peripheral neuropathy
Sjogren’s syndrome
It is a chronic autoimmune disease where body's white blood cells demolish the exocrine glands, precisely the salivary and lacrimal glands, that produce saliva and tears, appropriately. Sjögren’s syndrome is mostly categorized as either 'primary' or 'secondary'. Primary Sjögren’s syndrome happens by itself and secondary Sjogren’s syndrome happens when another connective tissue disease is present.
Immunological Diseases
Immunological diseases occur due to increase susceptibility to infections. Sign and symptoms of immunological diseases are: Frequent and recurrent pneumonia, sinus infections, ear infections, meningitis or skin infections; Infection of lower organs; Blood disorders such as low platelets count; Digestive problems such as cramping; loss of appetite; Delayed development and growth.
Rare Autoimmune Diseases
Autoimmune diseases affect any part of the body like heart, brain, nerves, muscles, skin, eyes, joints, lungs, kidneys, glands, the digestive tract and the blood vessels. Inflammation is the classic sign of an autoimmune disease. The effect of autoimmune disease depends on what part of body is targeted.
Rare Autoimmune Disorders
An autoimmune disorder results when the immune system of the body attacks and demolishes healthy body tissue by mistake. When an individual is suffering from autoimmune disorder, the immune system cannot differentiate between healthy tissue and antigens.
Addison's disease
Addison’s disease is a rare, chronic disorder caused due to the failure of adrenal glands. Lack of certain hormones produced by adrenal glands is responsible for the immune disorder. It is also known as adrenal insufficiency. This disorder can be treated by intake of artificial hormones to replace the insufficient amounts being made by adrenal gland.

Insulin Autoimmune Syndrome
Insulin autoimmune syndrome occurs due to the presence of anti- insulin antibodies in patients those who never received insulin. This syndrome clarifies spontaneous or reactive hypoglycaemia with an elevated level of total immune reactive insulin.
Liver Autoimmune Diseases
Autoimmune liver disease signifies that the body’s immune system attacks the liver. There are three categories of autoimmune liver diseases: Autoimmune hepatitis (AIH); Primary sclerosing cholangitis (PSC); Primary biliary cirrhosis (PBC)
Thyroid Autoimmune Diseases
It is also considered as chronic autoimmune thyroiditis. It is a disease in which the body explicate the thyroid glands and its hormone products T3, T4 and TSH as risk, therefore generating special antibodies that attack the thyroid’s cells thereby destructing it. It produces with hypothyroidism or hyperthyroidism and the presence and absence of goitres.
Pediatric Autoimmune Disorders
Pediatric autoimmune neuropsychiatric disorders related with streptococcal infections explains a conjecture that there exists a section of children with rapid beginning of obsessive- compulsive disorders (OCD) or tic disorders and the symptoms are caused by group A beta-haemolytic streptococcal infections.
Autoimmune Hepatitis
It is previously called lupoid hepatitis, which is a chronic disease of the liver that results when the body’s immune system attacks liver cells leading the liver to be inflamed. Its symptoms are fatigue or muscle aches, signs of acute liver inflammation like fever, jaundice, and right upper quadrant abdominal pain.
Autoimmune Skin Diseases
The body reacts with the variety of ways to autoimmune disorders which results in a person’s immune system to attack its own cells. There are various skin related disorders like scleroderma, psoriasis, dermatomyositis bullosa and bullous pemphigoid.
