The dynamic epigenetic regulation of the inactive X chromosome in healthy human B cells is dysregulated in lupus patients

2020-11-27

Abstract excerpt

<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> Systemic lupus erythematous (SLE) is a female-predominant disease characterized by autoimmune B cells and pathogenic autoantibody production. Individuals with two or more X chromosomes are at increased risk for SLE, suggesting that X-linked genes contribute to the observed sex-bias of this disease.
