Popis:	Thirty-two patients with chronic hepatitis B treated with alpha interferon were tested for 12 different antibodies. Only a minority (18%) of cases developed antinuclear antibodies and none developed clinical signs of autoimmune disease. These data suggest that, at the dose regimen used, interferon therapy of chronic hepatitis B is not associated with triggering of autoimmunity.
