Oxidative Stress
Emerging research suggests that chronic oxidative stress may play a substantial role in the pathogenesis of autoimmune disease and related complications. Oxidative stress favors a sequence of immune system activities, such as production of pro-inflammatory cytokines, macrophage activation, cellular proliferation, and endothelial activation - the same events found in autoimmune diseases, particularly SLE. This has led some researchers to hypothesize that oxidative stress may trigger inflammatory activity, inducing a flare of autoimmune disease in susceptible individuals.
