Soluble Fas and the −670 Polymorphism of Fas in Lupus Nephritis

open access: yesInternational Journal of Nephrology, Volume 2014, Issue 1, 2014., 2014
This study was performed to clarify the role of soluble Fas (sFas) in lupus nephritis (LN) and establish a potential relationship between LN and the −670 polymorphism of Fas in 67 patients with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), including a subset of 24 LN patients with proteinuria.
