Abstract excerpt
This study aimed to investigate mitochondrial gene mutations and expression in peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) of systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) patients, focusing on MT-ND5, and assess expression changes under lipopolysaccharide (LPS), tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), and dexamethasone stimulation. Peripheral blood was collected from female SLE patients. Mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) from PBMCs was...
