Apoptosis in the pathogenesis of systemic lupus erythematosus

TL;DR: Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) is a prototype inflammatory autoimmune disease resulting from autoimmune responses against nuclear autoantigens, and apoptosis and clearance of apoptotic cells/material are considered key processes in the aetiology of SLE.
Journal ArticleDOI

Transmission of modified nucleosomes from the mouse male germline to the zygote and subsequent remodeling of paternal chromatin.

TL;DR: It is shown that sperm constitutive heterochromatin is enriched for nucleosomes carrying specific histone modifications which are transmitted to the zygote, which suggests an epigenetic mechanism for inheritance of chromosomal architecture.
Journal Article

Glomerular apoptotic nucleosomes are central target structures for nephritogenic antibodies in human SLE nephritis. Commentary

TL;DR: In this article, the authors analyzed renal tissue from anti-dsDNA antibody-positive lupus patients with nephritis by morphological and immunological assays, including immune electron microscopy (IEM) and colocalization IEM, an EM-based confocal microscopy assay.
Journal ArticleDOI

The role of reactive oxygen species in apoptosis of the diabetic kidney

TL;DR: Some mechanisms of apoptosis are discussed and several strategies that have been probed to ameliorate, or to prevent apoptosis in the diabetic kidney are discussed.
