1. autoimmune

   In immunology, autoimmunity is the system of immune responses of an organism against its own healthy cells, tissues and other normal body constituents. Any disease resulting from this type of immune response is termed an "autoimmune disease". Prominent examples include celiac disease, post-infectious IBS, diabetes mellitus type 1, Henoch–Schönlein purpura (HSP) sarcoidosis, systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), Sjögren syndrome, eosinophilic granulomatosis with polyangiitis, Hashimoto's thyroiditis, Graves' disease, idiopathic thrombocytopenic purpura, Addison's disease, rheumatoid arthritis (RA), ankylosing spondylitis, polymyositis (PM), dermatomyositis (DM), Alopecia Areata and multiple sclerosis (MS). Autoimmune diseases are very often treated with steroids.Autoimmunity means presence of antibodies or T cells that react with self-protein and is present in all individuals, even in normal health state. It causes autoimmune diseases if self-reactivity can lead to tissue damage.

   Autoimmune refers to a condition or response when the body's immune system mistakenly attacks and destroys healthy body tissue. This can lead to various autoimmune diseases and disorders, as the body fails to distinguish between its own cells and foreign entities like bacteria and viruses.

1. Autoimmune

   Autoimmune is an album by Meat Beat Manifesto. Originally announced as a twenty track 2xCD release, Dangers decided to shorten the album down to a single disc with different track listings between the US and European releases. Stylistically, it steps up the pace a bit from other recent MBM albums, flirting with elements of dub, hip-hop, industrial, breakbeat and more, and this has resulted in the album being billed as a partial return to the early industrial sound of the band in the late 80s. The album has also been described as Jack Dangers' take on dubstep, though Dangers has stated that MBM has always utilized the underlying concepts of that particular genre. This is also the first MBM album to feature Danger's vocals since Actual Sounds + Voices in 1998; he appears on the track "Solid Waste". The album cover continues the checker-board/grid theme also seen on past MBM albums Actual Sounds + Voices, RUOK?, and the Off-Centre EP. Most of the remaining songs that were excised from the original double-disc concept were later released on an EP available only on the Autoimmune tour.
