What are the causes of Sjogren's syndrome?
One of the immunomodulatory defects is that the cellular immune system is abnormally active, characterized by monocyte infiltration dominated by activated T cells. The other is the activation of B cells γ Globulinemia, elevated circulating immune complexes and production of autoantibodies.
Viral diseases change the antigenicity of cell surface and become acquired antigen stimulation, stimulate B cell activation, produce antibodies and cause inflammatory reaction. The results of the former two conditions are not only the external factors of acquired exogenous stimulation, but also the internal factors of specific genetic factors which are easy to be infected.
In Sjogren's syndrome patients, there are sisters, mother and daughter, which also suggests that there are genetic factors in the etiology of the disease. It is believed that there are many kinds of viruses which may be related to the onset and persistence of Sjogren's syndrome. Such as EB virus, herpesvirus 6, cytomegalovirus, retrovirus and so on.
