Implications of Endogenous Retroelements in the Etiopathogenesis of Systemic Lupus Erythematosus

2021-02-19

Abstract excerpt

Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) is a heterogeneous autoimmune disease. While its etiology remains elusive, current understanding suggests a multifactorial process with contributions by genetic, immunologic, hormonal, and environmental factors.
