  • BACKGROUND: Anti-fibrillarin autoantibodies (AFA) as serological hallmarks of systemic sclerosis, mainly react with epitopes arranged in the NH2-(aa-1-80) and COOH-terminal-(aa-276-321)-domains of fibrillarin. Interestingly, the fibrillarin NH2-hexapeptide sequence is shared with an Epstein-Barr-virus (EBV)-encoded nuclear antigen. CASE PRESENTATION: We herein report a case of a 14-year-old girl presenting with a history of vomiting, sore throat, arthralgias and fever. Laboratory tests revealed leukocytosis, an increased level of CRP, transaminases and total/direct bilirubin. On further investigation, a positivity of ANA testing showing a clumpy nucleolar indirect immunofluorescence (AC-9) pattern on HEp-2000 substrate, due to anti-fibrillarin antibodies, was found. Concomitantly, high concentrations of EBV-VCA-IgM and a slight increase of EBV-VCA-IgG were detected, helping establish a diagnosis of ongoing EBV infection. After a follow-up of six months, all autoimmunity tests were repeated, and together with infection resolution, the negativity of ANA was determined, confirming the transient nature of the autoimmune phenomenon. CONCLUSIONS: Our findings confirm how molecular mimicry plays an important role in the viral-induced autoimmunity. Given the significant homology between fibrillarin and EBV protein sequences, caution in interpreting AFA positivity is suggested, especially in pediatric patients without clinical evidences of an autoimmune condition, and a simultaneous screening for EBV infections is recommended.
