Triptoquinone A and B exercise a therapeutic effect in systemic lupus erythematosus by regulating NLRC3

TL;DR: In this article , the role of oxidative stress in systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) and probes the prospective remedial effects of triptoquinone A and triptoquinone B on inflammation and cartilage deterioration in SLE-affected joints.
Journal ArticleDOI

Correlation between peripheral blood lymphocyte subpopulations and primary systemic lupus erythematosus

TL;DR: T-lymphocyte subpopulations are closely related to SLE activity and can be used as reference indicators to evaluate the SLE Activity Index score.
Journal ArticleDOI

Asociación del polimorfismo FokI del gen VDR y lupus eritematoso sistémico en población adolescente del Caribe colombiano

TL;DR: In this article , the authors investigated the association between the polimorfism of VDR polymorphisms and the risk of systemic lupus eritematoso sistémico (LES) in the Colombian population.
Journal ArticleDOI

Comparative effects of human-equivalent low, moderate, and high dose oral prednisone intake on autoimmunity and glucocorticoid-related toxicity in a murine model of environmental-triggered lupus

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that while moderate doses of prednisone can reduce important pathological endpoints of cSiO2-induced autoimmunity in lupus-prone mice, such as upstream ectopic lymphoid structure formation, these ameliorative effects come with unwanted GC toxicity, and, crucially, none of these three doses extended survival time.

The 1982 revised criteria for the classification of systemic lupus erythematosus

TL;DR: The 1971 preliminary criteria for the classification of systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) were revised and updated to incorporate new immunologic knowledge and improve disease classification and showed gains in sensitivity and specificity.
Journal ArticleDOI

Neutrophil extracellular traps kill bacteria

TL;DR: It is described that, upon activation, neutrophils release granule proteins and chromatin that together form extracellular fibers that bind Gram-positive and -negative bacteria, which degrade virulence factors and kill bacteria.
Book

Systemic Lupus Erythematosus

TL;DR: Contributions are gathered from physicians and researchers from North America, South America, Europe, and Asia that highlight several important and/or novel aspects of the molecular pathogenesis, clinical organ involvement, and experimental therapies in this prototypical systemic autoimmune disease.
Journal ArticleDOI

Interferon-inducible gene expression signature in peripheral blood cells of patients with severe lupus

TL;DR: Global gene expression profiling of peripheral blood mononuclear cells is used to identify distinct patterns of gene expression that distinguish most SLE patients from healthy controls, and identify a subgroup of patients who may benefit from therapies targeting the IFN pathway.
Journal ArticleDOI

Interferon and Granulopoiesis Signatures in Systemic Lupus Erythematosus Blood

TL;DR: Microarray analysis of blood cells reveals that immature granulocytes may be involved in SLE pathogenesis, and the IFN signature confirms the central role of this cytokine in Sle, using oligonucleotide microarrays.
