Abstract :
During the 10th International Symposium on Sjögrenʹs Syndrome held in Brest, France, from October 1–3, 2009 (http://www.sjogrensymposium-brest2009.org), the creation of an international epigenetic autoimmune group has been proposed to establish gold standards and to launch collaborative studies. During this “epigenetics session”, leading experts in the field presented and discussed the most recent developments of this topic in Sjögrenʹs Syndrome research. The “Brest epigenetic task force” was born and has scheduled a meeting in Ljubljana, Slovenia during the 7th Autoimmunity congress in May 2010.The following is a report of that session.
