Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Immune-mediated diseases arise from immune system malfunctions, and lead to a variety of health problems. Early and accurate diagnosis is crucial for better patient management. This Special Issue, "Innovative Biomarkers and Diagnostic Strategies in Immune-Mediated Diseases," delves into new diagnostic approaches. It reviews novel biomarkers, including molecular and cellular types, to enhance disease detection. Updated classification criteria are also highlighted for precise diagnosis. Moreover, advanced laboratory techniques like high-throughput sequencing and flow cytometry are discussed. Case studies demonstrate their practical application in different immune-mediated conditions. The issue aims to advance diagnosis and facilitate personalized patient-related strategies.
