Evaluation of polymorphic variants in apoptotic genes and their role in susceptibility and clinical progression to systemic lupus erythematosus.

abstract：OBJECTIVE:The objective of this paper is to evaluate whether the different International Society of Nephrology/Renal Pathology Society (ISN/RPS) classes of proliferative lupus nephritis (LN) have a distinct baseline presentation, short-term response to immunosuppression (IS) and long-term prognosis. METHODS:Ninety-eig...

abstract：:Lupus nephritis (LN) is usually associated with widespread effacement of the podocytes' foot processes leading to proteinuria. Induction of urokinase receptor (uPAR) signaling in podocytes leads to foot process effacement and urinary protein loss via promoting podocytes' motility and kidney permeability in the glomeru...
