Comparison of circulating and excreted metals and of autoimmunity between two Great Plains Tribal communities.
Metals contaminants of the environment from mine waste have been implicated as contributing agents in autoimmune disease. The current study compares metals and autoimmunity in two Tribal communities residing in the Black Hills and the Bighorn Mountains geographical regions that are scattered with extant hard rock mines. With documented drinking water contamination in both communities, in vivo levels of more than half of the measured serum and urine metals differed between the two communities and were substantially different from their national median values. Serum autoantibodies associated with systemic autoimmune disease were rare or at low-level, but antibodies to denatured (single-stranded) DNA and thyroid-specific autoantibodies were commonly elevated, especially in women. A three-tier statistical modeling process was carried out to examine individual metals exposure as predictors of autoantibody levels. For the most part only weak positive associations between individual metals and systemic autoantibodies were found, although univariate quantile regression analysis showed positive statistical associations of serum lead and antimony with anti-chromatin and anti-histone autoantibodies. Using age and gender-adjusted multivariable statistical models, metals did not predict anti-thyroglobulin or -thyroid peroxidase significantly and metals were generally negative predictors of the other autoantibodies. Overall these results suggest that elevated levels of environmental metals and metalloids in these communities may result in suppression of autoantibodies associated with systemic autoimmune disease.
期刊介绍:
The Journal of Autoimmunity serves as the primary publication for research on various facets of autoimmunity. These include topics such as the mechanism of self-recognition, regulation of autoimmune responses, experimental autoimmune diseases, diagnostic tests for autoantibodies, as well as the epidemiology, pathophysiology, and treatment of autoimmune diseases. While the journal covers a wide range of subjects, it emphasizes papers exploring the genetic, molecular biology, and cellular aspects of the field.
The Journal of Translational Autoimmunity, on the other hand, is a subsidiary journal of the Journal of Autoimmunity. It focuses specifically on translating scientific discoveries in autoimmunity into clinical applications and practical solutions. By highlighting research that bridges the gap between basic science and clinical practice, the Journal of Translational Autoimmunity aims to advance the understanding and treatment of autoimmune diseases.
