To derive and validate a definition of low disease activity (LDA) for SLE based on the SLE Disease Activity Score (SLE-DAS), in a real-life multicentre cohort of SLE patients. Derivation was conducted using data from a monocentric cohort of SLE (Portugal), and validation was performed in a multicentre cohort (Italy, France and Spain). The Lupus Low...

Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) accounts for the largest portion of connective tissue disease-associated pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) in Asian countries, especially in China, and SLE-PAH poses multiple challenges during pregnancy and delivery. Patients with SLE-PAH tend to have lower survival rates and worse quality of life than other s...

Nucleic acid autoantibodies, increase type I interferon (IFN-α) levels, and immune cell hyperactivation are hallmarks of systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). Notably, immune cell activation requires high level of cellular energy that is predominately generated by the mitochondria. Mitochondrial reactive oxygen species (mROS), the byproduct of mitoch...

Background Accumulating evidence supports the predisposition of systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) to atherosclerosis (AS). However, the common pathogenesis of these two diseases remains unclear. This study aimed to explore the mechanisms of SLE complicated by AS. Methods Gene expression profiles of SLE (GSE50772) and AS (GSE100927) were downloaded...

Dysregulated miRNAs have been implicated in the pathogenesis of systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). Our previous study reported a substantial increase in three miRNAs located at the miR-183-96-182 cluster (miR-183C) in several autoimmune lupus-prone mice, including MRL/lpr and C57BL/6-lpr (B6/lpr). This study reports that in vitro inhibition of miR...
