European Journal of Immunology, Volume 56, Issue 4, April 2026.Anti‐cN1A autoantibodies are helpful for diagnosing inclusion body myositis (IBM). We have developed an immunofluorescence assay based on the perinuclear accumulation of GFP‐cN1A. The analysis of patient sera indicated that this assay shows a higher sensitivity for anti‐cN1A in IBM compared to alternative assays, without loss of specificity.
