Prolactin and systemic lupus erythematosus: prolactin secretion by SLE lymphocytes and proliferative (autocrine) activityLupus - Tập 4 Số 5 - Trang 348-352 - 1995
Marco A. Gutiérrez, JF Molina, LJ Jara, M L Cuéllar, C. García, Sergio Gutiérrez‐Ureña, A E Gharavi, LR Espinoza
Accumulated evidence suggests that prolactin (PRL) is an important
immunoregulator and might have a role in the pathogenesis of systemic lupus
erythematosus (SLE). Moreover, a PRL-like molecule is secreted by normal human
lymphocytes and acts as an autocrine growth factor for lymphoproliferation. The
objective of this study was to explore the PRL-like peptide production by
peripheral blood mononuc... hiện toàn bộ
Clinical significance of serum and urine prolactin levels in lupus glomerulonephritisLupus - Tập 7 Số 6 - Trang 387-391 - 1998
J M Miranda, Rodrigo Prieto, Ramón Paniagua, Gloria García, Dante Amato, Leonor Barile, Luis J. Jara
Prolactin (PRL) has been involved in the pathogenesis of systemic lupus
erythematosus (SLE) and hyperprolactinemia has been connected with systemic
activity. However, the clinical significance of PRL has not been investigated in
lupus glomerulonephritis (GN). Methods: We studied SLE patients (ACR criteria)
with biopsy-proven renal disease. Renal histology was classified according to

Risk of developing antiphospholipid antibodies following viral infection: a systematic review and meta-analysisLupus - Tập 27 Số 4 - Trang 572-583 - 2018
Noha Abdel‐Wahab, Saurabh Talathi, María A. López-Olivo, María E. Suárez-Almazor
Objective The objective of this paper is to conduct a systematic review and
meta-analysis on the risk of developing elevated antiphospholipid (aPL)
antibodies and related thromboembolic and/or pregnancy events following a viral
infection. Method We searched Medline, EMBASE, Web of Science, PubMed ePubs, and
Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials through June 2016. Independent

Systematic review of case reports of antiphospholipid syndrome following infectionLupus - Tập 25 Số 14 - Trang 1520-1531 - 2016
Noha Abdel‐Wahab, María A. López-Olivo, Gineth Paola Pinto-Patarroyo, María E. Suárez-Almazor
Objective The objective of this study was to conduct a systematic review of case
reports documenting the development of antiphospholipid syndrome or
antiphospholipid syndrome-related features after an infection. Methods We
searched Medline, EMBASE, Web of Science, PubMed ePubs, and The Cochrane Library
– CENTRAL through March 2015 without restrictions. Studies reporting cases of
antiphospholipid s... hiện toàn bộ
Thrombomodulin: An overview and potential implications in vascular disordersLupus - Tập 7 Số 2_suppl - Trang 120-125 - 1998
Marie‐Claire Boffa, Marina Karmochkine
Thrombomodulin (TM), a high affinity thrombin receptor present on endothelial
cell membrane, plays an important role as a natural anticoagulant. It acts as a
cofactor of thrombin-catalyzed activation of protein C, and inhibits the
procoagulant functions of thrombin. TM is also located in other cells
(keratinocytes, osteoblasts, macrophages, …) where it might be involved in cell
differentiation or ... hiện toàn bộ
Severe refractory thrombocytopenia in a woman positive for coronavirus disease 2019 with lupus and antiphospholipid syndromeLupus - Tập 29 Số 11 - Trang 1472-1474 - 2020
Alina Hayden, Aishwarya Vyas-Lahar, Vincent Rella, Alla Rudinskaya
The coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic has created new challenges that
necessitate prompt responses in unexpected clinical situations. Multiple
extrapulmonary manifestations and complications of COVID-19 have already been
described, but only scattered data are present on immunologic manifestations. We
present a case of severe refractory thrombocytopenia in a 51-year-old woman with
a hist... hiện toàn bộ
Promoter polymorphisms in the IRF3 gene confer protection against systemic lupus erythematosusLupus - Tập 17 Số 6 - Trang 568-574 - 2008
Mitsuteru Akahoshi, Hitoshi Nakashima, Atsushi Sadanaga, Katsuhisa Miyake, Kazuhiko Obara, Mayumi Tamari, Tomomitsu Hirota, Akira Matsuda, Taro Shirakawa
In order to identify a novel candidate gene in systemic lupus erythematosus
(SLE), we analysed a panel of six genes encoding molecules involved in the type
I interferon (IFN) system. We first identified variants in the five genes
related to type I IFN pathway by sequencing. Genotyping of a panel of eight
selected single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in six candidate genes ( TLR9,
MYD88, IRF3, IR... hiện toàn bộ
Extrahepatic manifestations in chronic hepatitis C virus carriersLupus - Tập 24 Số 4-5 - Trang 469-482 - 2015
Éric Rosenthal, P. Cacoub
Patients with chronic hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection frequently present with
extrahepatic manifestations covering a large spectrum, involving different organ
systems leading to the concept of systemic HCV infection. These manifestations
include autoimmune phenomena and frank autoimmune and/or rheumatic diseases and
may dominate the course of chronic HCV infection. Chronic HCV infection causes
