A Murine Autoimmune Model of Rheumatoid Arthritis and Systemic Lupus Erythematosus Associated with Lupus Erythematosus (SLE). In this chapter we describe a murine model where deregulated production of IL-17 and IL-21 can lead to either lupus-like disease or RA-like symptoms depending on the genetic background. We delineate the key techniques that can be used to dissect the mechanisms responsible

The Parent-into-F1 Murine Model in the Study of Lupus-Like Autoimmunity and CD8 Cytotoxic T Lymphoc a graft-vs.-host disease (GVHD) that takes one of the following two forms: (a) acute GVHD seen with B6 → F1 mice and mediated by donor CD8 cytotoxic T cells that eliminate host lymphocytes and (b) a chronic lupus-like GVHD seen with DBA → F1 mice and mediated by donor CD4 T cell cognate help to aut

Genetic Approach to Study Lupus Glomerulonephritis,nifestation of SLE, involves inflammation in the kidney leading to loss of renal function. However, it is not clear what controls the progression of lupus nephritis; this is an important research question, considering its implications in clinical treatment of lupus nephritis. Finding genes that unde

There have been limited advances in understanding the molecular pathogenesis of the disease because of the difficulty in accessing human tissues and the absence of appropriate animal models. Recently, several unique murine models

Flow Cytometric Identification of Fibrocytes in Scleroderma Lung Disease,nary complications including interstitial lung disease have emerged as the greatest cause of mortality in this disease. Because treatments are limited, new areas of investigation are sorely needed. An emerging area of interest in this field is a potential role for fibrocytes as biomarkers or mediato

In the insulitic lesion, innate immune cells produce chemokines and cytokines that recruit and activate adaptive immune cells (Eizirik D et al., Nat Rev Endocrinol 5:219–226, 2009

Experimental Use of Mouse Models of Systemic Lupus Erythematosus,mmon endpoints examined in experimental studies, but exhibit specific differences in the incidence of other end-organ manifestations such as hemolytic anemia, arthritis, dermatitis, and vasculitis. This chapter contrasts the clinical characteristics of these various models, providing an outline for their use and analysis.
