Abstract:Mouse models contribute in our understanding of human diseases. By this way, several strains of systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE)-prone mice including New Zealand Black (NZB), F1 hybrids of NZB x New Zealand White (NZW) (B/W F1), MRL/Mp-lpr/lpr (MRL/lpr), and BXSB mice are important in the research of the autoimmune diseases. Several genes and signaling pathways molecules have been related with SLE pathologies such as: Lyn, CD22, SHP-1 or the sle1, sle2 and sle3 congenic models. CD38 is a transmembrane recept… Show more
