Autoantibodies are the hallmarks of autoimmune diseases. They are not, however, necessarily pathognomonic and interpretation of autoantibody results must be considered in the light of the clinical history. This article highlights the clinically relevant autoantibodies associated with autoimmune rheumatic diseases, and introduces the concept of autoantibody disease imprinting.
