Deficiency of functional mannose-binding lectin is not associated with infections in patients with systemic lupus erythematosus
Infection imposes a serious burden on patients with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). The increased infection rate in SLE patients has been attributed in part to defects of immune defence. Recently, the lectin pathway of complement activation has also been suggested to play a role in the occurrence of infections in SLE. In previous studies, SLE patients homozygous for mannose-binding lectin (...
متن کاملMannose binding lectin gene polymorphism and preclinical carotid atherosclerosis in patients with systemic lupus erythematosus.
Patients with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) have increased risk of atherosclerosis and CVD that cannot be explained by traditional risk factors. Previous studies indicated that mannose binding lectin (MBL) may modify the development of atherosclerosis. This study was designed to investigate association of MBL gene polymorphism with occurrence of preclinical atherosclerosis in SLE. The stud...

متن کاملMannose binding lectin: a biomarker of systemic lupus erythematosus disease activity
INTRODUCTION A role for mannose binding lectin (MBL) in autoimmune diseases has been demonstrated earlier and elevated level of MBL has been shown in systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) patients. In the current study, we investigated MBL as a potential biomarker for disease activity in SLE. METHODS In a case control study SLE patients (93 females) and 67 age, sex, ethnicity matched healthy con...
متن کاملSurvival rate of patients with systemic Lupus Erythematosus
Background: Due to infections, cardio-vascular involvement and renal insufficiency, patients with systemic lupus erythematosus live shorter than usual. Objective: To determine the mean survival rate of SLE patients. Patients and Methods: 62 SLE patients admitted in the hospitals of Kerman University of Medical Sciences from 1369 to 1380 were included in this study. The demographic variabl...
