'''Autoimmune diseases''' arise from an overactive [[immune response]] of the body against substances and tissues normally present in the body. In other words, the body attacks its own cells. Autoimmune diseases are a major cause of [[immune-mediated disease]]s.
==Gender influence==
Women tend to be affected more often by autoimmune disorders; nearly 79% of autoimmune disease patients in the USA are women. Also they tend to appear during or shortly after puberty. It is not known why this is the case, although [[hormone]] levels have been shown to affect the severity of some autoimmune diseases such as [[multiple sclerosis]].<ref>{{cite web |url=http://www.sciencemag.org/feature/data/983519.shl |title=A Gender Gap in Autoimmunity |accessdate=2007-10-19 |format= |work=}}</ref> Other causes may include the presence of fetal cells in the maternal bloodstream. <ref>{{cite web |url=http://jama.ama-assn.org/cgi/content/abstract/291/9/1127 |title=JAMA -- Abstract: Microchimerism: An Investigative Frontier in Autoimmunity and Transplantation, March 3, 2004, Adams and Nelson 291 (9): 1127 |accessdate=2007-10-19 |format= |work=}}</ref>
==Autoimmune diseases==
It is possible to classify autoimmune diseases by corresponding type of [[hypersensitivity]]: [[Type II hypersensitivity|type II]], [[Type III hypersensitivity|type III]], or [[Type IV hypersensitivity|type IV]]. (No type of autoimmune disease mimics [[type I hypersensitivity]].)<ref name="isbn0-8153-4093-1">{{cite book |author=Parham, Peter |title=The immune system |publisher=Garland Science |location=New York |year=2005 |pages=344 |isbn=0-8153-4093-1 |oclc= |doi= |accessdate=}}</ref>
