SLE patients with lupus nephritis were also associated with higher levels of circulating CD16- monocytes and total monocytes, in comparison with that of controls (both p < 0.0001).
We report that passive transfer of human SLE sera into mice expressing the uniquely human FcγRIIA and FcγRIIIB on neutrophils induces lupus nephritis and in some cases arthritis only when the mice additionally lack the CD18 integrin, Mac-1.
We then examined CNV at FCGR3B in relation to SLE and SLE nephritis within a case-control collection of 134 cases of SLE (37 with SLE nephritis) and 589 population controls of mainly Afro-Caribbean descent resident in Trinidad.
Taken together, our findings suggest that Fkn and CD16(+) Mo accumulation are partially associated with the severity and diversity of histology of lupus nephritis.
Silencing of renal DNaseI in murine lupus nephritis imposes exposure of large chromatin fragments and activation of Toll like receptors and the Clec4e.

Three hundred sixty-six children were enrolled, including 81 controls, 109 with Henoch-Schönlein purpura nephritis, 167 with nephrotic syndrome, 5 with IgA nephropathy, and 4 with lupus nephritis.
The glomerular number of 400 mg/kg treated mice was more than control group.Treatment with 400 mg/kg <i>D. candidum</i> reduced IL-6, IL-12, TNF-α and IFN-γcytokine levels as compared to control mice.<i>D. candidum</i> decreased NF-κb, TGF 'β1, Fas, FasL and increased IκB-α expressions in kidney tissue.There were 11 compounds in dry <i>D. candidum</i>, these compounds might make the curative effects of lupus nephritis.
The data show that baicalein alleviates the symptoms of pristane-induced LN and suggest that the alleviation may be attributed to inhibition of MDSC expansion and regulation of the balance of the Nrf2/HO-1 signal and NLRP3 expression in MDSCs.
MiR-125a-3p could be a important factor in the pathogenesis of LN which causes decrease in expression of IL-17 by potentially binding to the 3'UTR region causing suppression of fibrosis via down-regulating TGF-β1 in the SV40MES13 rat mesangial cells.
Our data clearly demonstrate that melatonin has protective activity on lupus nephritis in these mice that is highly associated with its effect on enhancing the Nrf2 antioxidant signaling pathway and decreasing renal NLRP3 inflammasome activation.
Baseline levels of IL-17 and IL-23 were higher in patients with active LN compare to them in patients with inactive LN or controls (P<0.001) and IL-23 in patients with inactive LN was higher than its in controls (P=0.004).
In the systemic lupus erythematosus mice model, Arrb2<sup>fl/fl</sup> Itgax-cre<sup>+</sup> mice were prone to exacerbation of lupus nephritis with a higher level of IL-6 and DC accumulation.
Comparing to IgA nephropathy, the adjusted HR was highest for DN [aHR = 2.97, 95% confidence interval (CI) 2.77-3.20], next highest for lupus nephritis (aHR = 1.86, 95% CI 1.71-2.03), and thereafter ranged from 1.29 (95% CI 1.19-1.39) in autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease to 1.67 (95% CI 1.52-1.83) in membranous nephropathy.
