Mutations in T cell receptor zeta chain mRNA of peripheral T cells from systemic lupus erythematosus patients.

Abstract excerpt

Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) is a systemic autoimmune disease of unknown aetiology. Although it has been reported that T cells might be responsible for the pathogenesis of SLE, it remains unclear whether immune aberrations of SLE T cells are the primary event in this pathological process.
