Abstract:

Neuropsychiatric (NP) symptoms are relatively common in patients with SLE. The diverse and dramatic clinical presentations, the unclear pathogenesis, the lack of diagnostic test/s and uncertainties about the optimal management are some problems facing a clinician. When serum anti P antibodies were claimed to be highly correlated to lupus psychosis, this needed confirmation. An ELISA for measuring anti P antibodies was developed and validated. The prevalence of anti P antibodies was determined in different patient groups in a large retrospective study. Although anti P antibodies were highly spe

Abstract:

Autophagy has emerged as a critical homeostatic mechanism in lymphocytes, influencing proliferation and differentiation. I sought to explore the role of autophagy in the pathogenesis of human and murine lupus, a disease in which B cells are critical effectors of pathology. Autophagy was assessed using multiple techniques in NZB/W and control mice, and in patients with SLE compared to healthy controls. I evaluated the phenotype of the B cell compartment in Vav-Atg7-/- mice in vivo, and examined human and murine plasmablast formation following inhibition of autophagy. I found activation of autop

Abstract:

Subsets of systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) patients with distinct patterns of disease manifestations and autoantibody production have been reported, but seldom have these two phenomena been analysed together. Cluster analysis was performed on 1928 Chinese SLE patients based on autoantibody profile and the frequencies of various clinical manifestations were compared between each cluster. Separate association analyses between individual autoantibodies and clinical manifestations, as well as between clinical manifestations, were also performed.

The purpose of the study was to determine the point prevalence of cognitive dysfunction in patients with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) and to investigate its association with corticosteroids and depression.

Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) is a relatively rare autoimmune disease with no known aetiology or cure. In addition to numerous physical symptoms, those living with SLE have also been shown to experience significant emotional and psychosocial difficulties. There has been little psychological research into SLE despite the rapidly increasing interest in health psychology and quality of life issues over the last two decades. One such issue that has commanded particular attention is that of cognitive bias in individuals with chronic pain and/or chronic illness. Cognitive bias toward illness-re

Abstract:

Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) is an autoimmune disorder characterized by disease flares and damage accrual. The increased longevity allows SLE patients to accrue damage which has retarded their survival improvement since the 1980s. In the first study of this thesis, meta-analyses of observational studies revealed that renal and neuropsychiatric damage has been adversely affecting the survival of lupus patients in the past fifty years. While confirmatory studies are required, targeting at renal and neuropsychiatric involvement early might hopefully further improve the survival of SLE pati

Abstract:

Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) is a prototypic autoimmune disease characterized by abnormalities in multiple components of the immune system resulting in progressive damage to multiple organs. Current treatments for SLE are often intensive and result in side effects and the potential for continued flares and progression of disease. Histone deacetylase (HDAC) enzymes control multiple cellular functions by removing acetyl groups from lysine residues in various proteins. HDAC inhibitors have been investigated as a potential treatment for SLE with promising results, however selective HDAC6

Firstly, I preformed eQTL mapping, incorporating co-localization analysis of GWAS in the functional immune cells, in order to identify likely causal genes. The results indicate that eQTLs present in a diverse set of immune cells, encompassing both the innate and adaptive immun

Using the lens of the biopsychological theory, common themes were examined pertaining to how men with SLE perceive the impact that SLE has on their cognitive and emotional functioning.
