abstract = {We have analyzed antibody (Ab) reactivities of patients with limited systemic sclerosis (SSc) and anti-centromere Ab, patients with diffuse SSc and anti-topoisomerase 1 (anti-topo 1) Ab, patients with diffuse SSc without anti-topo 1 or anti-centromere Ab and age- and gender-matched healthy controls with normal human tissue and endothelial cell (EC) antigens. IgG reactivities with tissue antigens differed significantly between patients with anti-topo 1 Ab and patients with anti-centromere Ab. One 100-kDa band identified as topoisomerase 1 in macrovascular and microvascular EC extracts was recognized by IgG from patients with anti-topo 1 Ab and 50% of patients without specific Ab. IgG from patients with limited SSc and anti-centromere Ab, but not those of other patients or controls specifically recognized a 80-kDa band only in microvascular EC. Our results indicate that Ab from patients with limited or diffuse SSc with or without anti-topo 1 Ab exhibit specific and mutually exclusive reactivity patterns.},

abstract = {To study the localization and function of the U1snRNP associated U1C protein, so far only human sera from systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) overlap syndrome patients have been used. Here we report for the first time the isolation of human monoclonal anti-UIC autoantibody fragments from IgG derived combinatorial and semi-synthetic human antibody libraries. Two classes of human monoclonal anti-UIC (auto)antibodies were found: specific anti-U1C autoantibodies, recognizing U1C only, and cross-reactive antibodies which also react with U1A and Sm-B/B'proteins. The heavy chains (V(H)genes) of all five antibodies from the semi-synthetic libraries and two of the three U1C-specific patient derived autoantibody fragments are encoded by V(H)3 genes, in which V(H) 3-30 (DP-49) was overrepresented. The heavy chain of the two cross-reactive autoantibodies are derived from the 3-07 (DP-54) gene. Three epitope regions on the U1C protein are targeted by these antibodies. (1) Four U1C specific antibodies recognize an N-terminal region of U1C in which amino acids 30-63 are essential for recognition, (2) two antibodies recognize only the complete U1C protein, and (3) two cross-reactive and one U1C specific antibody recognize the C-terminal domain in which amino acids 98-126 are critical for recognition. The two cross-reactive antibodies (K 11 and K 15) recognize the proline-rich region of the U1C protein (amino acids 98 126) and cross-react with proline-rich regions in Sm-B/B' (amino acids 163-184) and U1A (amino acids 187-204). All 10 antibody fragments are able to immunoprecipitate the native U1snRNP particle. The two cross-reactive antibodies immunoprecipitate the other Sm containing snRNPs as well. Using confocal immunofluorescence microscopy we could show that the major part of the U1C protein is localized within the coiled body structure.},
