    REAP: A platform to identify autoantibodies that target the human exoproteome, 2021, Wang et al

    Here you have the SLE patients vs controls from the actual pre printed study. I cannot see a pattern here for SLE but it is quite interesting anyway: And here you can see APECED to controls. Of course APECED is know serious disease and here is a clear pattern:

    REAP: A platform to identify autoantibodies that target the human exoproteome, 2021, Wang et al

    I personally believe that ME/CFS is antibody driven and I therefore think this breakthrough technology could tell us alot about at least a subset of patients. Here you can identify antibodies to extracelluar proteins (non tissue degenerating) which relates to us as patients since there is no...

    Targeting CD38 with Daratumumab in Refractory Systemic Lupus Erythematosus, 2020, Ostendorf et al.

    Summary Daratumumab, a human monoclonal antibody that targets CD38, depletes plasma cells and is approved for the treatment of multiple myeloma. Long-lived plasma cells are implicated in the pathogenesis of systemic lupus erythematosus because they secrete autoantibodies, but they are...
