These drugs also an autoimmune syndrome, suggesting a possible relationship between hypomethylation, autoreactivity, certain diseases. To test this relationship, was studied cells from patients with rheumatoid arthritis systemic lupus erythematosus, found to be impaired. results support hypomethylation some forms of disease.
