Assessment of common idiotype PR4-Id in serial bleeds from lupus patients.

abstract：:This review focuses on recent advances and new hypothesis in the understanding of the T and dendritic cells contribution to the pathogenesis of idiopathic inflammatory myopathies (IIMs), especially polymyositis (PM) and dermatomyositis (DM). The new data show that non-specific amplification of muscle inflammation by T...
