Defective DNA repair and chromatin organization in patients with quiescent systemic lupus erythematosus
Excessive autoantibody production characterizing systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) occurs irrespective of the disease's clinical status and is linked to increased lymphocyte apoptosis. Herein, we tested the hypothesis that defective DNA damage repair contributes to increased apoptosis in SLE. We evaluated nucleotide excision repair at the N-ras locus, DNA double-strand breaks repair and apoptosis rates in peripheral blood mononuclear cells from anti-dsDNA autoantibody-positive patients (six with quiescent disease and six with proliferative nephritis) and matched healthy controls following ex...
