Cell-Specific Transposable Element Gene Expression Analysis Identifies Associations with Systemic Lupus Erythematosus Phenotypes
2023-11-28
Abstract excerpt
There is an established yet unexplained link between interferon (IFN) and systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). The expression of sequences derived from transposable elements (TEs) may contribute to production of type I IFNs and generation of autoantibodies. We profiled cell-sorted RNA-seq data (CD4+ T cells, CD14+ monocytes, CD19+ B cells, and NK cells) from PBMCs of 120 SLE patients and quantified TE expression id...
