Antinuclear Antibodies in Localized Scleroderma [PDF]
Arthritis & Rheumatism, 1983 AbstractWhen HeLa cells were used as the substrate for detection by the indirect immunofluorescence method, antinuclear antibodies were demonstrated in 16 of 22 (72.7%) sera from patients with localized scleroderma. When mouse kidney sections were used, the positive rate for antinuclear antibodies was 50% (11 of 22).
