Accordingly, inhibition of Abl/Src with bosutinib reduced FcγRIIA-mediated glomerular neutrophil accumulation and renal injury in experimental, crescentic anti-GBM nephritis.
In addition, FCGR2A-R131 allele was associated with a 1.186-fold (95 % CI 1.043-1.349) greater risk for the occurrence of nephritis in the Asians population with SLE.
Here we evaluated the relevance of Fc gamma RIIa gene polymorphism in the development of lupus immune complex (IC)-mediated nephritis by comparing the genotype and allelic distribution of this receptor in lupus nephritis to ethnically matched healthy controls in Brazilians.
