GWANGJU, South Korea, May 17, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- The SARS-CoV-2, or the novel coronavirus, has affected more than 500 million people worldwide. Apart from the symptoms associated with COVID-19 infection, it has recently been reported that the virus also leads to a subsequent development of autoimmune diseases in patients.

Key Points: 
  • Autoimmune diseases like rheumatoid arthritis, lupus, or multi-inflammatory syndromes arise when the immune system confuses healthy cells with pathogens and starts attacking them.
  • To this end, a team of researchers from the Gwangju Institute of Science and Technology (GIST) led by Prof. Jihwan Park developed a new bioinformatics pipeline.
  • The team hopes their new tool will facilitate comparison between studies, providing a robust framework for further investigation on molecular mimicry and autoimmune diseases.
  • "Although autoimmune diseases affect less than 10% of the population, studying them is important since it severely impacts the quality of life.
