Abstract
Autoantibodies are important for the diagnosis and classification of autoimmune diseases. Currently, there is insufficient awareness that autoantibody assays are not standardized. We discuss the issues raised concerning the proper standardization of assays for autoantibody testing. The European Autoimmunity Standardisation Initiative (EASI) promotes the cross-talk between clinicians and laboratory specialists to improve the correct interpretation of autoantibody results.
