Abstract Background Measurement of soluble HLA in body fluids has a potential role in assessing disease activity in autoimmune disorders. Methods We applied a solid phase enzyme-linked immunoassay to measure soluble HLA class I sHLA-I and class II sHLA-II molecules in the saliva and cerebrospinal fluid CSF in 13 untreated patients with relapsing-remitting form of multiple sclerosis MS . For comparison purposes we also studied saliva from 53 healthy subjects. Results Saliva from normal controls had detectable sHLA-I levels in 41 of 53 individuals studied with values ranging from 9-100 ng ml mean 41 2.8 ng ml . sHLA-I was undetectable in the saliva in 11 of 13 MS patients and in none of the CSF specimens. In contrast mean sHLA-II concentration in the .
