ANXA1 and autoimmune disease: For the present report, we examined the temporal expression profiles of the 12 mammalian annexin genes (Anxa1-11 and Anxa13), applying our temporal genome-wide transcriptome analyses of ex vivo salivary and lacrimal glands from our C57BL/6.NOD-Aec1Aec2 mouse model of Sjögren’s Syndrome (SS), a human autoimmune disease characterized primarily by severe dry mouth and dry eye symptoms.
