Elevated expression of TIGIT on CD3+CD4+ T cells correlates with disease activity in systemic lupus erythematosus
2017
Objectives
It is well-known that lymphocytes play an important role in systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). T cell immunoreceptor with Ig and immunoreceptor tyrosine-based inhibitory domains (TIGIT) is one of immunosuppressive costimulatory molecules that mediates an inhibitory effect. However, its roles in SLE are poorly understood. This study was designed to investigate the correlation between the frequencies of TIGIT-expressing CD3+CD4+ T lymphocytes and SLE.
