  • Chapter

Part of the book series: Advances in Experimental Medicine and Biology ((AEMB,volume 350))

Abstract

Sjögren’s syndrome (S.S.) in the human patient population is an autoimmune inflammatory disease presenting clinical symptoms of xerophthalmia and xerostomia1. This condition predominantly affects women. Most diagnoses of S.S. is made in association with autoimmune connective tissue diseases such as rheumatoid arthritis or systemic lupus erythematosus.2 However, it can also be obseved as an isolated phenomenon, described as primary S.S.
