Total Hcy, CRP and ACL IgG concentrations were the independent predictors of anti\-Nε\-Hcyprotein antibodies levels in subjects with APS. In 39 randomly selected patients with autoimmunologic diseases levels of anti\-Nε\- Hcy\-hemoglobin antibodies and the percentage of seropositivity were similar when repeated after 9 months. There were significant differences between anti\-Nε\-Hcyalbumin antibodies levels in the patients, however the percentage of seropositivity after 9 months was similar. In conclusion, stable patients with systemic autoimmunologic diseases have significantly higher levels of anti\-Nε\-Hcy\-albumin and \-hemoglobin IgG antibodies than healthy individuals, which are associated with increased tHcy levels. In SLE patients production of anti\-Nε\-Hcy\-albumin and \-hemoglobin antibodies is associated with ANA titers and depends on the inflammatory status and disease duration. In APS patients, production of anti\-Nε\-Hcy\-protein antibodies is related to the ACL IgG level, the presence of LA and, similarly to SLE, they depend on the inflammatory status. High levels of anti\-Nε\-Hcy\-protein antibodies are stable over time. The current study suggests that hyperhomocysteinemia associated with autoimmunologic diseas"]
