Understanding the Immune System's Attack on Blood Vessels

Abstract

Arthur Hamilton*

Vasculitis is a group of rare autoimmune diseases characterized by inflammation and damage to blood vessels. It occurs when the body's immune system mistakenly attacks healthy blood vessels, leading to a range of symptoms and complications. In this article, we will explore the underlying mechanisms of vasculitis, focusing on the immune system's role in initiating and perpetuating the disease. Understanding the immune system's attack on blood vessels is crucial for unraveling the complexities of vasculitis and developing targeted therapies to manage this condition effectively.
