DOI: 10.1038/s41574-022-00653-y
Abstract: Autoimmune Addison disease is an endocrinopathy that is fatal if not diagnosed and treated in a timely manner. Its rarity has hampered unbiased studies of the predisposing genetic factors. A 2021 genome-wide association study, explaining… read more here.

DOI: 10.1136/bcr-2017-223633
Abstract: Infectious aetiologies are the most common causes of primary adrenal failure (Addison’s disease) in low/middle-income countries while in the western world autoimmune causes predominate. The infections attributed to cause Addison’s include disseminated gonococcal infection, tuberculosis, histoplasmosis,… read more here.

DOI: 10.1530/eje-21-0007
Abstract: OBJECTIVE Autoimmune Addison's disease (AD) results from a combination of the genetic predisposition, unclear environmental triggers and ensuing immune dysfunction. MicroRNA molecules (miRNAs) are involved in post-transcriptional regulation of numerous target genes, hence may affect… read more here.
