Methods for detecting Multiple Sclerosis (MS) diagnostic autoantibodies in a subject and generating a subject-specific, MS diagnostic autoantibody profile are described. The methods include contacting an immunoglobulin-containing biological sample from the subject with a system comprising antigens that form immunocomplexes with MS diagnostic autoantibodies, the antigens including general transcription factor II-I, splicing factor 1, and inducible T-cell co-stimulator (ICOS), to form a reaction mixture, under conditions that allow for formation in the reaction mixture of an immunocomplex between each antigen and its corresponding MS diagnostic autoantibody, if its corresponding MS diagnostic autoantibody is present in the sample; and detecting presence or absence of immunocomplexes in the reaction mixture, wherein formation of immunocomplexes between the antigens and their corresponding MS diagnostic autoantibodies indicates presence of the MS diagnostic autoantibodies in the biological sample.
