These data represent the most extensive compilation of cardiovascular gene expression information to date. They further demonstrate the untapped potential of genome research for investigating questions related to cardiovascular biology and represent a first-generation genome-based resource for molecular cardiovascular medicine.
Peripheral blood gene expression profiling (GEP) in SLE allows patients to be categorised into two groups based on a high or low IFN gene signature. Disease activity measured using the SLEDAI-2K is correlated with the high IFN gene signature, indicating that GEP may be a useful biomarker of disease activity in SLE.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
