Many drugs but also environmental pollutants may cause adverse reactions in susceptible individuals that are reminiscent of autoimmune syndromes. Apart from a number of predisposing often inherent, idiosyncratic determinants, chemical-specific properties might be involved as well. Notably, reactive chemicals or metabolites may provoke formation or release of immunosensitizing neo-antigens (a.o. hapten-carrier...
Many chemicals, in particular drugs, cause systemic allergy or autoimmune-like disorders. Due to complex pathogenesis and strong dependence on genetic make-up, these immunotoxicological effects are usually missed in standard toxicity testing. Besides, animal studies that demonstrate chemically induced systemic allergy or autoimmune-like disorders are scarce. Here, animal models are presented that...
