Methods and reagents for diagnosis of autoantibodies |
October 2, 2007 |
| A number of octapeptides were generated from the sequences encoding the 60 kDa Ro/SSA peptide, the La/SSB autoantigen, the 70 kD nuclear ribonucleoprotein (nRNP), and the Sm B/B' polypeptide, which represent linear epitopes for autoantibodies present in the sera of SLE and SS patient |

Diagnostics and therapy of Epstein-Barr virus in autoimmune disorders |
September 25, 2007 |
| Data consistent with autoimmune disease being caused by Epstein-Barr virus are shown. Based on this evidence, an effective vaccine would prevent the autoimmune disease in those vaccinated, modified or administered so that the vaccine is not itself capable of inducing autoimmune disease. |

Non-human animal model for systemic lupus erythematosis |
May 15, 2001 |
| A specific method has been developed to produce an autoimmune response and resulting clinical symptoms for a particular disease process. Peptides or other structures derived from an autoantigen and which are bound by auto antibody or T cell receptors are identified and used to induce an |
