Autoimmune Disorders List

The immune system in our body protects us from any kind of diseases, foreign microbes and so on. They produce antibodies which helps in killing the microbes which causes harm to our body. Our immune system is smart enough to distinguish between the tissues that it is supposed to destroy and the tissues that are useful for the body. But what happens when this immune system fails to recognize the useful tissues and the harmful tissues? When this happens, the system creates certain auto-antibodies which starts attacking its own cells and tissues and even organs and this is what leads to autoimmune diseases. The autoimmune disorders list is huge and some of the most common disorders have been mentioned below.

List of Autoimmune Disorders

People often ask why does the immune system often start attacking their own cells and tissues? Researchers are not quite sure about why people suffer from autoimmune diseases. However, some researchers assume that it might be due to the confusion that arises when the normal antibodies fails to differentiate between the normal cells and the infected cells; as they almost have the certain similar structures.

The autoimmune diseases occupies the third position in the category of the biggest disease, after heart disease and cancer. Studies have shown that the common cause of almost all diseases in the world is the autoimmune disease. The name of the disease depends generally on the organ that has been infected. Almost all the diseases of this disorder can be treated and since the cause of each disease is the same, the treatments too remain the same.
