SAT0028 Aiolos overexpression in systemic lupus erythematosus b-cell subtypes and baff induced memory b-cell differentiation are reduced by cc-220 modulation of cereblon activity
Abstract:BackgroundSystemic Lupus Erythematosis (SLE) is an autoimmune disease characterized by alterations in B-cells, autoantibody production, and elevations in circulating B-cell activating factor (BAFF). Aiolos single nucleotide polymorphisms and elevations in Aiolos mRNA are associated with SLE susceptibility. CC-220 is a Cullin Ring Ligase 4 Cereblon (CRL4CRBN) E3 Ubiquitin Ligase Modulator that induces ubiquitination and degradation of Aiolos and Ikaros transcription factors. We investigated the effects of CC-22… Show more
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.
