Objective To analyze the correlation between anti-cell membrane DNA (mDNA) antibodies and other autoantibodies and estimate its diagnosing significance for systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). Methods From January to August 2015, the sera samples from 254 patients with various autoimmune diseases, including 106 SLE, 80 rheumatoid arthritis (RA), 32 mixed connective tissue disease (MCTD), 29 Sjogren's syndrome (SS), 7 polymyositis/dermatomyositis (PM/DM) and 20 healthy controls, were collected. The anti-mDNA antibody, anti-dsDNA antibody, antinuclear antibody (ANA) and anti-keratin antibody (AKA) were detected by indirect immunofluorescent assay; anti-cyclic citrylinated peptide antibody (CCP) antibody was detected by enzyme-linked immuno sorbent assay; rheumatoid factor (RF) was detected by rat scatter turbidimetry assay; and anti-Sm antibody was detected by Western blotting method. Results Anti-mDNA antibody was found in 77 of 106 SLE (72.6%), 4 of 80 RA (5.0%), 6 of 32 MCTD (18.7%), 4 of 29 SS (14.7%), 0 of 7 PM/DM (0.0%) and 0 of 20 healthy controls (0.0%), respectively. It's notable higher in SLE than that in the others (P < 0.001). The sensitivity, specificity and diagnosis efficiency of anti-mDNA antibody for SLE were 72.6%, 91.7% and 84.3%, respectively. Anti-mDNA antibody was significantly correlated with ANA, anti-dsDNA antibody and anti-Sm antibody (P < 0.001), while it had no significant correlation with anti-CCP antibody, AKA and RF (P > 0.05). Conclusion Anti-mDNA antibody is closely related with other SLE associated antibodies and with high sensitivity and specificity for SLE diagnosis.
