Identification of a neutrophil-related gene expression signature that is enriched in adult systemic lupus erythematosus patients with active nephritis: Clinical/pathologic associations and etiologic mechanisms.
Both a lack of biomarkers and relatively ineffective treatments constitute impediments to management of lupus nephritis (LN).Here we used gene expression microarrays to contrast the transcriptomic profiles of active SLE patients with and without LN to identify potential biomarkers for this condition.RNA Diagnostic Recording Paper isolated from whol
