Anterior Segment Findings in Patients With Osteogenesis Imperfecta: A Case-Control Study.

abstract：PURPOSE:We have previously reported that mouse kallikrein (KLK) 22 in the lacrimal and salivary glands is an autoantigen that can induce primary Sjogren syndrome (SS) in rats. In this study, we determine whether the production of antibodies against tissue KLK is specific for SS and whether the antibody can be used as a...
