Genomic alterations in abnormal neutrophils isolated from adult patients with systemic lupus erythematosus
8 Aug 2014
Abstract excerpt
INTRODUCTION: Patients with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) have an abnormal population of neutrophils, called low-density granulocytes (LDGs), that express the surface markers of mature neutrophils, yet their nuclear morphology resembles an immature cell. Because a similar discrepancy in maturation status is observed in myelodysplasias, and disruption of neutrophil development is frequently associated with...
