Question

Select the statements that accurately characterize autoimmune diseases. Check All That Apply Graves' disease is due to a Type II hypersensitivity and the action of autoantibodies. 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.

          Select the statements that accurately characterize autoimmune diseases.
