Centromere antibodies are a type of antinuclear antibody (ANA) that targets specific proteins in the centromere region of chromosomes. These antibodies are most commonly found in patients with autoimmune connective tissue diseases, especially limited systemic sclerosis (CREST syndrome), which can cause skin thickening, Raynaud’s phenomenon, and involvement of internal organs.
