Abstract excerpt
The NZM2410 Sle2c1 lupus susceptibility locus is responsible for the expansion of the B1a cell compartment, and for the induction of T-cell induced renal and skin pathology on a CD95-deficient (Fas(lpr)) background. We have previously shown that deficiency in the cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitor p18(INK4c) (p18) was responsible for the B1a cell expansion but was not sufficient to account for the pathology in...
