摘要

Altered regulation of interferon-alpha (IFNalpha) in systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) was first demonstrated nearly 25 years ago. However, only recently has due attention been directed towards the central role of this cytokine family in SLE. Several laboratories have used large-scale microarray technology to study global gene expression patterns in heterogeneous populations of peripheral blood cells from lupus patients and control subjects. The results of these studies demonstrate that IFN-regulated genes are among the most significantly overexpressed in SLE mononuclear cells. In view of the protean effects of IFNs on immune system function, increased activity of IFNs may account for many of the immune system alterations that characterize SLE and contribute to autoimmunity. Definition of the nature of the major IFNs, or other factors, that drive the IFN-regulated gene expression signature noted in SLE is an important area for investigation that may lead to new approaches to targeted therapy of SLE.
