Aberrant regulation of the integrin very late antigen-4 in systemic lupus erythematosus.

abstract：OBJECTIVES:Impaired function of polymorphonuclear cells (PMNs) in systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) leads to severe gram-positive and gram-negative bacterial infection, and to major morbidity and mortality. Few studies have focused on the association of impaired function of PMNs and SLE patients' susceptibility to inf...
