primary biliary cirrhosis and cross-targeting

My Hypothesis:
Cross-targeting:  the layering of 2 different infections on one target causes autoimmune disease.  A viral infection marking the inside of the target then a bacterial, or fungal, or mycobacteria..etc.. infection marking the outside.

e.coli and the liver primary biliary cirrhosis

betaretrovirus and primary biliary cirrhosis
http://www.pnas.org/content/100/14/8454

note that this group with e.coli would overlap celiac disease
while the mycoplasma group would overlap RA

the areas over autoimmune disease overlap my help elucidate the infections involved
