Lessons from Similarities between SLE and HIV Infection
2002
Abstract Objective : We attempted to obtain deeper understanding of systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) and human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection through comparative studies between both diseases. Method : For this purpose, we reviewed and discussed lessons from similarities in both diseases based on our own and reported findings in literatures. Result : Such comparative studies may contribute to the progress in understanding the clinical or pathogenetic features of these diseases. Conclusion : Further studies into the relationship between SLE and HIV infection may bring to light important clues to assist in the development of better treatments for each disease.
