The clinical spectrum of primary Sjogren Syndrome (pSS)ranges from sicca syndrome to systemic involvement (extraglandular manifestations), including a large number of manifestations that may be the form of presentation or appear after the disease is diagnosed, and that clearly mark the prognosis of the disease. Gene expression levels of Interferon (INF) and B Lymphocyte Biomarkers as Markers of Systemic Affectation and Lymphoproliferative Disease in, together with clinical and laboratory parameters, will provide significant information about the risk of developing hematological neoplasms in patients with pSS at different stages of the disease, and lead to better management of the disease treatment and therapeutic behaviors. Using the proposed technique allows us to study the gene expression at the mRNA level of each biomarker, which allows us to anticipate the irreversible changes that take place due to the progress of the pathology in progress, since the molecular changes precede the histological changes and in the pathological diagnosis.
