Abstract

See full text

Synthesized telomeric sequences bind to and can be used for detecting anti-DNA antibodies in serum. Autoimmune diseases such as Lupus Erythematosus, Rheumatoid Arthritis, and Scleroderma, can be detected by detecting an elevated level of anti-DNA antibodies using telomeric sequences. Test kits for such detection are provided including immobilized telomeric sequences capable of binding anti-DNA antibodies. Pharmaceutical compositions for inhibiting or reducing the activity of anti-DNA antibodies contain an effective amount of telomeric sequences effective in inhibiting the antibodies specific to the patient treated.
