Open Access Abstract Introduction Sjogren syndrome SjS is a systemic autoimmune disease in which an immunological attack primarily against the salivary and lacrimal glands results in the loss of acinar cell tissue and function leading to stomatitis sicca and keratoconjunctivitis sicca. In recent years two genetic regions one on chromosome 1 designated autoimmune exocrinopathy 2 or Aec2 and the second on chromosome 3 designated autoimmune exocrinopathy 1 or AecT derived from nonobese diabetic NOD mice have been shown to be necessary and sufficient to replicate SjS-like disease in nonsusceptible C57BL 6 mice. Methods Starting with the SjS-susceptible C57BL 6-derived .
