摘 要: | Primary Sjo¨gren's syndrome(p SS) is a systemic autoimmune disease with exocrine gland dysfunction and multi-organ involvement. Recent progress in understanding the pathogenesis of p SS offers an opportunity to find new biomarkers for the diagnosis and assessment of disease activity. Screening noninvasive biomarkers from the saliva and tears has significant potential. The need for specific and sensitive biomarker candidates in p SS is significant. This review aims to summarize recent advances in the identification of biomarkers of Sjo¨gren syndrome, trying to identify reliable, sensitive, and specific biomarkers that can be used to guide treatment decisions.
