Frequency of Anti-Nuclear Antibodies in Multiple Sclerosis
Neurol 45:384-385, Barned,S.,et al, 1995
See this aricle in Pubmed

Article Abstract
We found anti-nuclear antibodies(ANA)in 26.7%of 150 relapsing-remitting and in 30.4%of 23 chronic progressive definite multiple sclerosis(MS) patients by retrospective chart review.These patients did not have systemic lupus erythematosus.Since ANA are not pathogenically relevant in MS,they are false-positive,and likely reflect systemic immune dysregulation in MS.
