The two main directions are (1) to identify and characterize specific autoimmune target antigens and understand why autoantibodies are induced and continually produced in different disease states and (2) to use human autoantibodies as unique probes to reveal the molecular and cellular functions of interesting macromolecules and subcellular organelles that are autoimmune targets. The overall strategy is that by understanding the biology of autoantigens in health and disease states, we may be able to fully appreciate the functional and pathogenic potentials of autoantibodies.
Our laboratory is actively characterizing the RNA binding protein GW182 which is a macromolecule marker for cytoplasmic domains known as GW bodies (GWBs). The most common clinical diagnosis of patients with anti-GW182 antibodies was Sjogren's syndrome, followed by neurological disease (motor and sensory neuropathy and/or ataxia), and systemic lupus erythematosus. Several novel autoantigens have been identified in GWBs and we focus on their roles in the regulation of RNA interference and mRNA degradation.
