Thirty-one patients with systemic lupus erythematosus were studied by repeat biopsies of nonlesional skin to determine whether there was a relationship between disease activity (clinical and serologic) and the presence and number of immunoglobulins and complement proteins present in the dermal-epide
## Abstract Immunoglobulin deposits in the dermalβepidermal junction of clinically normal skin from patients with SLE were eluted by acid buffer. The eluates contained antinuclear and antibasement membrane antibody activities. The antiβBM antibody reacted with skin and esophageal but not glomerular
