Abstract
A number of different types of antinuclear antibodies have been characterized, and their clinical significance is beginning to become clear. The anti-DNA type correlates closely with renal injury and severity of clinical disease in systemic lupus erythematosus. Antiribonucleoprotein appears to be related to mixed connective tissue disease.Keywords
