<i>Xist</i> Deletion in B Cells Results in Systemic Lupus Erythematosus Phenotypes
2024-05-18
Abstract excerpt
<h4>SUMMARY</h4> Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) is an autoimmune disease preferentially observed in females. X-linked gene expression in XX females is normalized to that of XY males by X-Chromosome Inactivation (XCI). However, B cells from female SLE patients and mouse models of SLE exhibit mislocalization of Xist RNA, a critical regulator of XCI, and aberrant expression of X-linked genes, suggesting that imp...
