SPARC regulation of PMN clearance protects from pristane induced lupus and rheumatoid arthritis
2020-08-10
Abstract excerpt
One step along the pathogenesis of Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) is associated with polymorphonuclear leukocyte (PMN) death and their ineffective removal by M2-macrophages. The secreted protein acidic and rich in cysteine (SPARC) is a matricellular protein with unexpected immunosuppressive function in M2-macrophages and myeloid cells. To investigate the role of SPARC in autoimmunity, we adopted a pristane–ind...
