Systemic autoimmune diseases (SAIDs), such as systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), sclerosis (SSc) and rheumatoid arthritis (RA), are fully related to the unregulated innate adaptive immune systems involved in their pathogenesis. They have similar pathogenic characteristics, including interferon signature, loss of tolerance self-nuclear antigens, enhanced tissue damage like necrosis fibrosis. Glucocorticoids immunosuppressants, which limited specificity prone tolerance, used first-line therapy. A plethora novel immunotherapies been developed, monoclonal bispecific antibodies, other biological agents target cellular soluble factors disease pathogenesis, B cells, co-stimulatory molecules, cytokines or receptors, signaling molecules. Many these shown encouraging results clinical trials. CAR-T cell therapy is considered most promising technique for curing diseases, with recent successes treatment SLE SSc.

Abstract Background Lupus nephritis (LN) manifests systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) and is characterized by various clinical laboratory features. This study aimed to comprehensively evaluate the characteristics of LN patients according time diagnosis: early-onset (LN diagnosed within one year from SLE diagnosis) vs. delayed-onset more than after diagnosis). Methods We conducted a retrospective analysis medical records all treated at University Hospital in Kraków, Poland, 2012 2022. collected data on demographic, clinical, characteristics, including histological findings, treatment modalities, disease outcomes. Statistical analyses were performed identify factors impacting development prognosis. Results Among 331 patients, was 207 (62.54%) documented 122 cases (36.86%). In 2 (0.6%) cases, first kidney manifestation course unknown. Delayed-onset had higher female-to-male ratio younger age diagnosis. group associated with severe manifestations. turn, studied subgroups did not differ internist comorbidities, histopathology, family history regarding autoimmune diseases. exhibited frequency anti-dsDNA, anti-Smith, anti-Ro, anti-RNP, anti-cardiolipin IgG autoantibodies. During 14-year follow-up period, 16 died. Mortality rate causes death comparable both analyzed subgroups. Conclusions More manifestations prompt strict monitoring non-LN diagnose treat involvement early. Also, recognizing autoantibodies such as anti-dsDNA or anti-Smith underscores potential value autoantibody profiling diagnostic prognostic tool.

Abstract Caused by the loss in tolerance against self‐antigens, autoimmune diseases are chronic disorders that impact millions of individuals annually with significant economic burden. They triggered a deficiency quantity or function regulatory T (Treg) cells, which essential for maintaining self‐tolerance and preventing excessive immune responses. Several clinical trials over past decade have demonstrated safety feasibility certain Treg cell‐based therapies diseases, inspiring optimism among patients. Studies indicated targeted cell pharmaceuticals significantly promising, offering superior targeting, improved biocompatibility, prolonged blood circulation. Thus, delivery systems also extensively studied. This review describes role cells system both homeostasis development autoimmunity, purification expansion methods, derived pharmaceutical therapies, therapeutic potential beneficial to accelerating industrialization translation formulations based on cells.

During development SLE, pathogenic features, such as formation autoantibodies self-nuclear antigens, caused tissue damage including necrosis fibrosis, with increased expression type Ⅰ interferon (IFN) regulated genes. Treatment immunosuppressants glucocorticoids, which are used standard therapy, not effective enough causes side effects. As alternative, more immunotherapies have been developed, monoclonal bispecific antibodies that target B cells, T co-stimulatory molecules, cytokines or their receptors, signaling molecules. Encouraging results observed in clinical trials some these therapies. Furthermore, chimeric antigen receptor cells (CAR-T) therapy has emerged most effective, safe, promising treatment option for demonstrated successful pilot studies.
