Abstract excerpt
OBJECTIVES: To analyze associations between the patterns of global DNA hypomethylation and expression of DNA methyltransferase (DNMT1, DNMT3A, and DNMT3B) in patients with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) and to obtain a deeper understanding of the role that epigenetic mechanism may have on SLE. METHODS: The global DNA methylation profile in T cells from 34 patients with SLE and 23 healthy controls was assessed...
