The Pathogenesis of Lupus Nephritis [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Clinical & Cellular Immunology, 2014
Lupus nephritis is a serious potential feature of systemic lupus erythematous (SLE). Though SLE typically cycles through periods of flares and remission, patients often eventually succumb to end-stage kidney or cardiovascular damage. This review of the pathogenesis of lupus nephritis examines the role of the complement cascade; the significance of ...

Engineering Approaches to Modify Immunomodulatory Functions of Mesenchymal Stromal Cells (MSCs): Tissue Regeneration and Clinical Application

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs) show promise for treating immune‐related disorders through immunomodulation and tissue regeneration. This review gives a brief overview of current clinical approval of MSC therapies. It also discussed how bioengineering, including genetic modification, biomaterial delivery, extracellular vesicles, and iPSC‐derived MSCs,

Therapeutically targeting proinflammatory type I interferons in systemic lupus erythematosus: efficacy and insufficiency with a specific focus on lupus nephritis

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology
Type I interferons (IFN-Is) are important players in the immunopathogenesis of systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). Pathogenic events in patients with SLE are potent triggers of IFN-I induction, yet IFN-I may induce or initiate the immunopathogenesis ...

CAR‐Engineered Cell Therapies Beyond Cancer: Reprogramming Fibrosis and Immune‐Mediated Inflammation

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
CAR‐engineered cell therapies are expanding beyond cancer toward immune resetting, pathological‐cell clearance, matrix remodeling, and microenvironmental reprogramming in autoimmune, inflammatory, and fibrotic diseases. This Review compares CAR‐T, CAR‐macrophage, and CAR‐NK platforms and proposes controllable spatiotemporal reprogramming to align ...

Update on Lupus Nephritis [PDF]

open access: yesClinical Journal of the American Society of Nephrology, 2016
SLE is a chronic inflammatory disease that affects the kidneys in about 50% of patients. Lupus nephritis is a major risk factor for overall morbidity and mortality in SLE, and despite potent anti-inflammatory and immunosuppressive therapies still ends in CKD or ESRD for too many patients.

Targeting B‐Cell‐Activating Factor and Its Receptor in Immune Thrombocytopenia and Warm Autoimmune Hemolytic Anemia

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Hematology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Current treatments for immune thrombocytopenia (ITP) and warm autoimmune hemolytic anemia (wAIHA), rare autoimmune diseases in which autoreactive B cells play a major role, can lead to high response rates; however, for many patients these responses are not durable or maintained after treatment discontinuation.
