摘要
This work tested the hypothesis that infection causes unexplained production of anti-centromere protein antibodies (ACA) via autoimmune cross-reactivity. To further examine the clinical origin of ACA, the overlapped peptides between human pathogens, including viruses, bacteria and fungi and centromere proteins (CENP-A, CENP-B and CENP-C) were assessed. We found a broad overlap of pathogenetic peptides with human centromere proteins. These data indicate potential immune cross-reactivity between pathogens and human centromere proteins. Additionally, the current findings corroborate a molecular and mechanistic framework for autoimmune disorders related to infection. Moreover, preliminary evidence for a potential role of infection in ACA-related autoimmune diseases was presented.
