The pathogenesis of antibody‑mediated autoimmune disease
involves a combination of immune tolerance defects and external influences.
While loss of central or peripheral tolerance is necessary for autoimmunity to
occur, population studies suggest that no single immune checkpoint failure
fully explains disease onset in most patients.

Which of the following is most commonly
associated with the initiation of antibody‑mediated autoimmune disease?
