Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) is one of the prototypical
systemic autoimmune diseases characterised by inflammation, immune
complex deposition, and vasculitis. Patients with SLE show various
symptoms and clinical images, both constitutional and specific
organ symptoms. They include the skin, joints, muscles, kidneys,
lungs, nervous system, and blood vessels. Although the aetiology of
the disease is still unclear, genetic, hormonal, immunologic
abnormalities and environmental factors complicatedly play
important roles in the pathophysiology in SLE. It is evident that
multiple genes show genetic susceptibility to SLE. Environmental
factors of SLE and immunologic abnormalities, especially the
production of a number of auto-antibody, are important features of
the disease. In this book, we present recent knowledge about the
prevalence, pathophysiology and prognosis of SLE. The book includes
various interesting chapters: Chapter One: An illustrated overview
of the prevalence and clinical symptoms of systemic lupus
erythematosus; Chapter Two: Pathophysiology of systemic lupus
erythematosus; Chapter Three: MBL and MBL genotypes in SLE; Chapter
Four: Novel biological activities of autoantibodies as the
potential markers of systematic lupus erythematosus; Chapter Five:
Cytokines in systemic lupus erythematosus (sle) with clinical
aspects and prognostics; Chapter Six: Prognosis in systemic lupus
erythematosus; Chapter Seven: Auto-antibody-producing
RP105-negative B cells in humans and a murine model of lupus
erythematosus.
