Distinguish between autoimmune diseases and immune deficiency diseases, and give one example of each.
Identify one of the autoimmune diseases that you are interested in. Describe the condition and if you can, share with us your interest and perhaps personal experience with the diseases. It may be you, a child, a relative, a friend. Share at least one web site for this condition and describe something new you have learned about this condition. If you have no personal experience, chose one that you recognized but didn't realize was caused by an autoimmune response.

Myasthenia gravis is due to a Type III hypersensitivity and the action of autoantibodies. Type I diabetes is an example of a Type IV hypersensitivity that develops due to the action of autoreactive NK cells. Multiple sclerosis involves tissue destruction by both T cells and autoantibodies. All autoimmunities are systemic in nature, attacking all parts of the body equally.
