The major autoimmune diseases "organ specific" are:

- Graves' disease (hyperthyroidism)
- Hashimoto's thyroiditis (chronic autoimmune thyroiditis)
- Cortico-adrenal insufficiency (Addison idiopathic)
- Diabetes mellitus
- Multiple sclerosis and other demyelinating diseases
- Myasthenia gravis
- Pemphigus
- Ulcerative colitis
- Morbus Chron
- Pernicious Anemia

- Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE)
- Dermatomyositis / polymyositis (DM / PM)
- Systemic sclerosis (SSc)
- Mixed Connective
