Target Proteins in Human Autoimmunity: Cytochromes P450 and Udp-Glycoronosyltransferases
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Cytochromes P450 (CYPs) and UDP-glucuronosyltransferases (UGTs) are targets of autoantibodies in several hepatic and extrahepatic autoimmune diseases. Autoantibodies directed against hepatic CYPs and UGTs were first detected by indirect immunofluorescence as antiliver and/or kidney microsomal antibodies. In autoimmune hepatitis (AIH) type 2, liver and/or kidney microsomal (LKM) type 1 autoantibodies are detected and are directed against CYP2D6. About 10% of AIH-2 sera further contain LKM-3 autoantibodies directed against family 1 UGTs. Chronic infections by hepatitis C virus and hepatitis delta virus may induce several autoimmune phenomena, and multiple autoantibodies are detected. Anti-CYP2D6 autoantibodies are detected in up to 4% of patients with chronic hepatitis C, and anti-CYP2A6 autoantibodies are detected in about 2% of these patients. In contrast, 14% of patients with chronic hepatitis delta virus infections generate anti-UGT autoantibodies. In a small minority of patients, certain drugs are known to induce immune-mediated, idiosyncratic drug reactions, also known as 'druginduced hepatitis'. Drug-induced hepatitis is often associated with autoantibodies directed against hepatic CYPs or other hepatic proteins. Typical examples are tienilic acid-induced hepatitis with anti-CYP2C9, dihydralazine hepatitis with anti-CYP1A2, halothane hepatitis with anti-CYP2E1 and anticonvulsant hepatitis with anti-CYP3A. Recent data suggest that alcoholic liver disease may be induced by mechanisms similar to those that are active in drug-induced hepatitis. Autoantibodies directed against several CYPs are further detected in sera from patients with the autoimmune polyglandular syndrome type 1. Patients with autoimmune polyglandular syndrome type 1 with hepatitis often develop anti-CYP1A2; patients with adrenal failure develop anti-CYP21, anti- CYP11A1 or CYP17; and patients with gonadal failure develop anti-CYP11A1 or CYP17. In idiopathic Addison disease, CYP21 is the major autoantigen.

How this classification was reachedexpand
Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
