Brief Summary

It is the investigators aim to determine the feasibility of directly detecting anti-RLIP76 auto-antibodies in human serum using prepared RLIP76 antigen peptides in persons with rheumatologic disease and persons without rheumatologic diesease ("healthy subjects").

Study Population

The experimental populations subject to study will be 100 outpatients in the rheumatology clinic otherwise undergoing routinely scheduled phlebotomy for standard clinical care purposes.

You may qualify if:

  • Adult (age 18+), non-pregnant subjects with previously diagnosed rheumatologic disease will be candidates for the study.
