Enhanced expression of heat shock protein gene in kidney lymphoid cells of lupus-prone mice during growing process.

abstract：:Augmented and prolonged expression of CD40 ligand (CD40L) was recently reported in lymphoid cells from human lupus patients, suggesting that CD40/CD40L pathway was involved in the pathogenesis of systemic autoimmune diseases. This study was thus designed to study the expression of CD40 and CD40L among cell populations...
