| Subjects: | Immunologic diseases |
| Abstract: | Discusses histological analysis of some systemic autoimmune diseases and syndromes that led the authors to the conclusion that the common features of the organs involved might be their embryonal origin. Suggests that organs derived from the same germ layer express common germ-layer-specific antigens. Mesodermal autoimmunity and systemic lupus erythematosus; Mesodermal-endodermal autoimmunity; Addison's disease; Ectodermal autoimmunity; Guillian-Barre syndrome. |
