mTOR Activation Underlies Enhanced B Cell Proliferation and Autoimmunity in PrkcdG510S/G510S Mice

Abstract excerpt

Autosomal recessive PRKCD deficiency has previously been associated with the development of systemic lupus erythematosus in human patients, but the mechanisms underlying autoimmunity remain poorly understood. We introduced the Prkcd G510S mutation that we previously associated to a Mendelian cause of systemic lupus erythematosus in the mouse genome, using CRISPR-Cas9 gene editing. PrkcdG510S/G510S mice...
