Article Synopsis
- * Researchers stimulated B cells and other immune cells with different types of IFN and validated a new testing method for tetherin (CD317), a protein that indicates IFN activity, in both a discovery cohort and a longitudinal validation cohort involving SLE patients and healthy controls.
- * The results revealed that tetherin expression on memory B cells was significantly linked to SLE diagnosis, disease activity, and the prediction of future clinical flares, suggesting it could serve as a useful biomarker for managing SLE
