Integrative multi-omics analyses have identified three mechanistic pathways linking microbial imbalance to autoimmunity: (1) microbial peptides trigger molecular mimicry and epitope spreading, activating autoreactive lymphocytes: (2) microbial metabolites disrupt redox homeostasis, impair epithelial barriers, and skew the AhR-mediated Th17/Treg balance; and (3) dysbiosis alters epigenetic regulation by inhibiting DNA methyltransferases, leading to hypomethylation of SLE-risk genes. This evidence concerns the gene AHR and Autoimmunity.
