That's very exciting.  I know it can take years before studies like this translate into clinical trials (and even longer for them to turn into widely available treatments) -- but this is incredibly encouraging.   
Early 40s. No diagnosis. Negative lip biopsy (maybe done too early?). Negative SSA/SSB, but positive ANA (just went up to 1:160, nucleolar). Dry eyes and migraines since teens. Dry mouth, fatigue, and now joint pains are new.  Aside from ANA, negative on all other autoimmune bloodwork.
