Boston, MA -- (SBWIRE) -- 07/29/2015 -- Autoimmune diseases are caused by aggravation of the immune system. Autoimmune diseases can last for months or even years. Autoimmune reactions occur when the immune system produces autoantibodies that attack and destroy healthy tissues in the body rather than infectious agents. These autoantibodies cause inflammation, pain, and organ damage. It is also known as a disease of flare-ups and remissions, and can range from mild to life-threatening in severity. No cure exists for autoimmune diseases yet. Autoimmune diseases can affect the cardiovascular system, brain, nerves, musculoskeletal system, skin, lungs, kidneys, glands, or joints. They are caused by genetic, infectious, and environmental factors. According to NIH, there are more than 80 clinically different autoimmune diseases. Some of the common types of autoimmune diseases are ankylosing spondylitis, Crohn's disease, multiple sclerosis, rheumatoid arthritis, systemic lupus erythematosus, and psoriasis.
