TL;DR: It seems that phenolic compounds (apigenin, luteolin, and their corresponding glycosides) are responsible for the diethyl ether extract cytotoxic effect, and induction of oxidative stress might be involved in its cytotoxicity.

TL;DR: A decrease of DNase I activity in SLE flare-ups might be a functional biomarker of a subset of patients with specific dysfunction of apoptotic chromatin degradation, as well as a useful tool in the follow-up of SLE.

TL;DR: Investigation of chemical profile and stated biological activities of the supercritical CO2 extract of old man’s beard compared to the extracts obtained using the conventional techniques found a good correlation of usnic acid content in the extracts and their antioxidant capacity was established, extricating SCE as the most active one.

TL;DR: The results suggest that simple and reliable ELISA for high-avidity anti-dsDNA antibodies is the test of good clinical utility for the assessment of global SLE activity.

TL;DR: This is the first report of a patient with MS in whom treatment with IFN-β induced lupus syndrome and antibodies to dsDNA and nucleosome is reported, and the patient’s symptoms completely resolved and autoantibodies disappeared.
