Background Single-cell RNA-sequencing (scRNA-seq) has been recently applied in systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) to define distinct cellular composition and transcriptional signatures, greatly ...

Objective This systematic review seeks to survey existing literature concerning systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE)-related thrombosis risk mechanisms within six pro-coagulable categories: ...

Background Abnormalities of type I interferon signaling and production can initiate lupus development. Disturbances of nucleic acid-sensing molecules triggered autoreactivity in lupus mouse models.

Background Proliferative lupus nephritis (LN) is characterized by robust glomerular and tubulo- interstitial inflammation, sub-endothelial deposits of immunoglobulin, and increased endothelial cell ...

Objective The heterogeneity of lupus clinical manifestations makes it difficult to precisely characterize the full spectrum of patient profiles with traditional real-life (claims) data sources. This ...

Background Pathologic inflammation is a major driver of kidney damage in lupus nephritis (LN), but the immune mechanisms of disease progression and risk factors for end organ damage are poorly ...

Background People with SLE (and their doctors) are concerned about the risk of COVID-19 infection, yet some patients still harbor concerns regarding vaccination. The first mRNA SARS-CoV-2 vaccines ...

Background Lupus nephritis (LN) is a common and severe complication of systemic lupus erythematosus requiring renal biopsy to guide treatment decisions. Despite standard-of-care therapy, a third of ...

Background Ultraviolet light (UV) is a known trigger of cutaneous lupus erythematosus (CLE) flares in systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) patients, yet cell populations and mechanisms driving UV- ...

Results When comparing OT images of a total of 48 PIPs from healthy volunteers and 160 PIPs from SLE patients, an AUC of 0.79 is obtained (figure 3) with corresponding sensitivity and specificity of ...

The significant allelic effect at rs13385731 and enhancer effect on RasGrp3 expression level. (A) ChIP-qPCR assays for determining allele-specific DNA-protein interactions with H3K27ac, H3K4me1, ...
