Abstract excerpt
Interactions between Sle1 and other susceptibility loci were required for disease development in the NZM2410 model of lupus. Sle1 corresponds to at least three subloci, Sle1a, Sle1b, and Sle1c, each of which independently causes loss of tolerance to chromatin, but displays a distinctive immune profile. We have used congenic strains to analyze the interactions between the Sle1 subloci and other lupus...
