Autoimmune Diseases Modeling (IgG4-Related diseases)
Challenge
Autoimmune diseases such as rheumatoid arthritis, lupus, and multiple sclerosis involve complex immune system dysregulation, making it difficult to identify therapeutic targets and predict treatment responses. Rare conditions like IgG4-related disease (IgG4-RD) further complicate this landscape due to limited data and the need for precise insights into immune dynamics.
Our Solution
Our advanced mechanistic disease modeling platform is able to integrate multi-omics data to provide a comprehensive view of immune system dynamics. For example, in IgG4-RD, we uncover critical differences in parameters like immune cell proliferation, IL-6 secretion rates, and T cell activation. Through in-silico simulations, we evaluate drug efficacy, identify key therapeutic drivers, and predict treatment responses with precision.
Outcome
By delivering actionable insightsinto disease mechanisms, our platform accelerates the identification of high-potential therapeutic targets and streamlines drug evaluation. This approach provides a cost-effective, scalable, and accurate solution for autoimmune diseases, paving the way for faster treatment development and improved patient outcomes.

Summary
Most of the model parameters are similar between the two conditions, except for few parameters that vary considerably in IgG4-RD compared to the healthy state. The difference in the values of these parameters provide insight about the mechanistic changes of the immune system during IgG4-RD.
- The proliferation of mDC dominates other DC subsets in IgG4-RD and is much higher than the corresponding proliferation rate in the healthy state.
- The secretion rate of IL6 is significantly higher in IgG4-RD patients compared to healthy controls.
- The activation of a specific cell-population is higher in IgG4-RD patients and mainly driven by a pair of cytokines.
