In current study, based on previous studies from animal model, new panels combining well-established cytokine (BAFF) and autoantibodies (anti-SSA/Ro) with newly identified cytokine (IL14) and autoantibodies (TSA) were used to evaluate the association between B cell growth factor and Sjögren's related autoantibodies in NHL patients. The gene discussed is TNFSF13B; the disease is non-Hodgkin lymphoma.
