Single-cell transcriptome profiling and chromatin accessibility reveal an exhausted regulatory CD4+ T cell subset in systemic lupus erythematosus

Abstract excerpt

Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) is a chronic autoimmune disease, and CD4 + T cells are known to promote SLE development. Here, we explore heterogeneities in the CD4 + T cell regulome and their associations with SLE pathogenesis by performing assay for transposase-accessible chromatin with high-throughput sequencing (ATAC-seq) and single-cell transcriptome sequencing (single-cell RNA sequencing [scRNA-seq]) of...
