A systemic autoimmune disease
Sjogren’s syndrome (SS)
Clinical features
Hypergammaglobulinemia
Anti-Ro, anti-La, atypical autoAb
Cryoglobulinemic vasculitis
Anti-CA II , anti-M3R Ab
Pneumonitis, nephritis
Lymphoma
Dry mouth
Dry eye
+ monoclonality
Chronic inflammation of exocrine glands
- Salivary gland (Chronic sialadenitis)
- Lacrimal gland (Chronic dacryoadenitis)
B cell hyperactivity
- Polyclonal gammopathy
- Antinuclear antibody
- Rheumatoid factor
- Other autoantibodies
- Lymphocytic infiltration
- Ectopic GC

Multiple factors
- Genetics
- Epigenetics
- Environment : virus
- Hormone : estrogen deficiency
- Psychological factor
Activation of innate and adaptive immunity
Genetics factor

Environmental factors in the pathogenesis of SS
Viral infection
- Epstein Barr virus (EBV)
: DNA can be detected in blood and salivary gland in SS 1,2
: a common virus that infects both salivary epithelial cell
and B cell 3
: promote release of Ro and La ribonucleoprotein
complexes through epithelial cell apoptosis 4
: EBV-encoded small RNA (EBER) can form complex with La,
and activate type I IFN through TLR-3 4

Hormonal factor in the pathogenesis of SS
Role of estrogen deficiency in SS
- Human
: predominant of SS in postmenopausal women compared
with men
- Animal models
: estrogen-deficient mice can develop SS-like syndrome. 1,2
: RBBP4 -transgenic mice can develop SS-like syndrome
through p53-mediated apoptosis of epithelial cells in estrogen-
deficient state. 3

Neuropsychological factors in the pathogenesis of SS
Before disease onset :
- Severe psychological stress
- Defective coping-stress strategies
- Lack of social support
