Antinuclear antibody profiling in uveitis [PDF]
_Editor,_ Antinuclear antibodies (ANA) are antibodies directed against a variety of nuclear antigens and are detected in patients with autoimmune diseases. Antinuclear antibodies (ANA) profiling is relevant for diagnostic purposes in various diseases, including systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), Sj€ogren syndrome and systemic sclerosis (Smeenk et ...

Clinical research on progress of antinuclear antibody in rheumatoid arthritis [PDF]
Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a common chronic, systemic autoimmune disease characterized by erosive arthritis, with a global prevalence of 0.25% to 1.00%, which may ultimately lead to joint deformity and loss of function.

Objective The presence of antinuclear antibodies (ANAs) is characteristic for systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). Antibody dynamics over time are thought to reflect the cellular source of ANAs and their therapeutic targetability. Anti–double‐stranded DNA (anti‐dsDNA) is the most prevalent and well‐studied of all ANAs, and fluctuations in anti‐dsDNA ...
