Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) is characterized by the production of high-titer IgG-class antinuclear antibodies (ANA). The principal targets of ANA in SLE include chromatin (DNA, histones, and other associated proteins) and ribonucleoproteins, such as small nuclear RNPs (snRNPs) that process pr

n the early 1900s, controversies between the Ehrlich school and the Metchnikoff school of immunology laid the foundation for our current notions of self-tolerance and autoimmunity. The experiments of Ehrlich and Morgenroth showed that animals did not produce autoantibodies to their own erythrocytes
