The authors' findings confirm the possibility of such forms. In 16.5% of cases lupus erythematosus transforms from the discoid form and in 6.9% of cases from the disseminated form, immunologically presenting as T- or B-dependent lupus erythematosus. The authors describe immunocorrecting therapy for various forms of the disease, including immunosuppression of T- and B-lymphocytes by the quinoline series drugs or by their combinations with corticosteroids, as well as immunostimulation of T-lymphocytes by the imidazole series drugs or by thymus hormones.

Introduction: Bruton's tyrosine kinase (BTK) is a cytoplasmic signaling protein expressed across a variety of immune cells, terminally differentiated plasma cells, and natural killer cells. Due to the signal potential and targetable nature of BTK, the use of BTK inhibitors (BTKis) has been proposed for the management of several diseases. Currently, the use of BTKis is under investigations for several dermatological conditions such as pemphigus, systemic lupus erythematosus, hidradenitis suppurativa, atopic dermatitis, and chronic spontaneous urticaria (CSU).

Lupus nephritis is an important cause of severe glomerulonephritis, and a leading cause of kidney failure in young adults. While the disease can lead to rapid destruction of nephrons if untreated, there are effective therapies to reverse the severe acute kidney injury and prevent the lifetime risk of kidney failure. Early diagnosis and timely intervention are therefore of critical importance.
