Relationship of leukocyte CR1 transcript and protein with the pathophysiology and prognosis of systemic lupus erythematosus: A follow-up study
Lupus, 09/16/2011
Arora V et al. – Since the levels of leukocyte CR1 (L–CR1) protein is influenced by variables like proteolytic cleavage and secretion from leukocytes, the values of L–CR1 transcript on day 1 and subsequent follow–up points may bring a better insight into the state of the disease activity. An extended follow–up study is needed to confirm the significance of L–CR1 as a prognostic marker for systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE).
