Ras-MAPK pathway in patients with lupus nephritis

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Pathogenic mutations in genes encoding components of the Ras/mitogen-activated protein kinase (Ras-MAPK) pathway cause RASopathy. Here, we describe five unrelated patients with SLE carrying mutations associated with RASopathy and investigate the activity of the Ras-MAPK pathway. METHODS: Pathogenic variants were identified by whole-exome/whole-genome sequencing. The activity of the Ras-MAPK pathway in...
