2020-11-04
Abstract excerpt
<title>Abstract</title> <p><bold>Background</bold>: Rapidly progressive interstitial lung disease (RP-ILD) has high mortality rate and poor prognosis. Galectin-9 (Gal-9) plays multiple functions in immune regulation. We investigated Gal-9 expression in patients with dermatomyositis (DM) and the impact of Gal-9 on the development of DM-ILD. <bold>Methods:</bold> Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay and qRT-PCR were u...
