==Overview==
==Overview==
The pathophysiology of systemic lupus erythematosus involves the [[immune system]]. Other factors such as [[genetic]] factors, [[hormonal]] abnormalities, and environmental factors also play a role. The most important environmental factors involved in the [[pathogenesis]] of SLE include [[ultraviolet]] (UV) light and some [[infections]]. The most important [[Gene|genes]] involved in the [[pathogenesis]] of SLE include [[HLA-DR2]], [[HLA-DR3]], [[HLA]] class 3, C1q, and [[IRF5|interferon (IFN) regulatory factor 5]]. The most prominent events involving [[immune]] abnormalities are related to persistent activation of [[B cells]] and [[Plasma cell|plasma cells]] that make [[Autoantibody|auto-antibodies]] during disease progression. The disease developmental process begins with the release of microparticles and [[proinflammatory]] [[cytokines]] from the cells that are undergoing [[apoptosis]]. Due to excess amount of [[apoptosis]], the body is unable to clear these microparticles entirely, and these microparticles are presented to [[dendritic cells]] as [[antigens]]. [[Dendritic cells]] process these microparticles and mature, and present these as [[antigens]] to [[T-cells]]. [[T-cells]], microparticles, and [[proinflammatory]] [[cytokines]] themselves trigger [[B-cell]] activation and [[autoantibody]] production. As a result, body tissues lose their self-tolerance. The most prominent events involving [[hormonal]] abnormalities are due to [[prolactin]] and [[estrogen]]. On microscopic [[histopathological]] analysis, [[apoptotic]] [[Keratinocyte|keratinocytes]], [[vacuolization]] of the [[basement membrane]], and [[dermal]] [[mucin]] deposition are characteristic findings of SLE [[dermatitis]], and active or inactive [[Endocapillary proliferative glomerulonephritis|endocapillary]] or extracapillary segmental [[glomerulonephritis]] are characteristic findings of [[lupus nephritis]].

==Pathogenesis==
==Pathogenesis==
The progression of systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) involves the [[immune system]]. Nearly all of the [[pathological]] manifestations of SLE are due to [[antibody]] formation and the creation and deposition of [[immune complexes]] in different organs of the body. When the [[immune complexes]] are formed, they deposit on different body tissues and [[vessels]], which may lead to [[complement]] activation and more organ damage. There are other factors such as [[genetic]] factors, hormonal abnormalities, and environmental factors that also play a role in the pathogenesis of SLE.

Development of systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) is due to the activation of different mechanisms that may result in [[auto-immune|auto-immunity]]. The disease developmental process begins with the release of microparticles and [[proinflammatory]] [[cytokines]] from the cells that are undergoing [[apoptosis]]. Due to excess amount of [[apoptosis]], the body is unable to clear these microparticles entirely, and these microparticles are presented to [[dendritic cells]] as [[antigens]]. [[Dendritic cells]] process these microparticles and mature, and present these as [[antigens]] to [[T-cells]]. [[T-cells]], microparticles, and [[proinflammatory]] [[cytokines]] themselves trigger [[B-cell]] activation and [[autoantibody]] production. As a result, body tissues lose their self-tolerance. Affected patients are no longer entirely tolerant to all of their [[Antigens|self-antigens]], leading to development of an [[Autoimmunity|autoimmune]] disease and producing [[autoantibodies]] as a response. During disease progression, [[B cell|B cells]] and [[Plasma cell|plasma cells]] that make [[Autoantibody|autoantibodies]] are more persistently activated due to signaling abnormalities, causing them to make more [[Autoantibody|autoantibodies]]. These [[autoantibodies]] are targeted predominantly to [[intracellular]] [[nucleoprotein]] particles.<ref name="pmid8519610">{{cite journal |vauthors=Elkon K |title=Autoantibodies in systemic lupus erythematosus |journal=Curr Opin Rheumatol |volume=7 |issue=5 |pages=384–8 |year=1995 |pmid=8519610 |doi= |url=}}</ref><ref name="pmid25449682">{{cite journal |vauthors=Yaniv G, Twig G, Shor DB, Furer A, Sherer Y, Mozes O, Komisar O, Slonimsky E, Klang E, Lotan E, Welt M, Marai I, Shina A, Amital H, Shoenfeld Y |title=A volcanic explosion of autoantibodies in systemic lupus erythematosus: a diversity of 180 different antibodies found in SLE patients |journal=Autoimmun Rev |volume=14 |issue=1 |pages=75–9 |year=2015 |pmid=25449682 |doi=10.1016/j.autrev.2014.10.003 |url=}}</ref> This increase in [[autoantibody]] production and persistence is supposed to be [[Downregulate|downregulated]] by anti-idiotypic [[antibodies]] or regulatory [[immune cells]], but the massive [[Immunology|immunologic]] response in SLE prevents this [[downregulation]] from taking place. After formation of [[immune complexes]], the [[classical complement pathway]] is activated, which leads to the deposition of [[immune complexes]] in different organs and is responsible for flare ups and long term complications.

Overview

The pathophysiology of systemic lupus erythematosus involves the immune system. Other factors such as genetic factors, hormonal abnormalities, and environmental factors also play a role. The most important environmental factors involved in the pathogenesis of SLE include ultraviolet (UV) light and some infections. The most important genes involved in the pathogenesis of SLE include HLA-DR2, HLA-DR3, HLA class 3, C1q, and interferon (IFN) regulatory factor 5. The most prominent events involving immune abnormalities are related to persistent activation of B cells and plasma cells that make auto-antibodies during disease progression. The disease developmental process begins with the release of microparticles and proinflammatory cytokines from the cells that are undergoing apoptosis. Due to excess amount of apoptosis, the body is unable to clear these microparticles entirely, and these microparticles are presented to dendritic cells as antigens. Dendritic cells process these microparticles and mature, and present these as antigens to T-cells. T-cells, microparticles, and proinflammatory cytokines themselves trigger B-cell activation and autoantibody production. As a result, body tissues lose their self-tolerance. The most prominent events involving hormonal abnormalities are due to prolactin and estrogen. On microscopic histopathological analysis, apoptotic keratinocytes, vacuolization of the basement membrane, and dermal mucin deposition are characteristic findings of SLE dermatitis, and active or inactive endocapillary or extracapillary segmental glomerulonephritis are characteristic findings of lupus nephritis.

Pathogenesis

The progression of systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) involves the immune system. Nearly all of the pathological manifestations of SLE occur due to antibody formation and the creation and deposition of immune complexes in different organs of the body. When the immune complexes are formed, they deposit on different body tissues and vessels, which may lead to complement activation and more organ damage. There are other factors such as genetic factors, hormonal abnormalities, and environmental factors that also play a role in the pathogenesis of SLE.

Environmental factors

The environmental factors and genetic factors are the most important risk factors for developing SLE because they may jump-start the disinhibited cellular apoptosis chain. This apoptosis step is the first step in the pathogenesis of lupus.

Immune abnormalities

The development of systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) is due to the activation of different mechanisms that may result in auto-immunity. The disease developmental process begins with the release of microparticles and proinflammatory cytokines from the cells that are undergoing apoptosis. Due to excess amount of apoptosis, the body is unable to clear these microparticles entirely, and these microparticles are presented to dendritic cells as antigens. Dendritic cells process these microparticles and mature, and present these as antigens to T-cells. T-cells, microparticles, and proinflammatory cytokines themselves trigger B-cell activation and autoantibody production. As a result, body tissues lose their self-tolerance. Affected patients are no longer entirely tolerant to all of their self-antigens, leading to development of an autoimmune disease and producing autoantibodies as a response. During disease progression, B cells and plasma cells that make autoantibodies are more persistently activated due to signaling abnormalities, causing them to make more autoantibodies. These autoantibodies are targeted predominantly to intracellular nucleoprotein particles.[1][2] This increase in autoantibody production and persistence is supposed to be downregulated by anti-idiotypic antibodies or regulatory immune cells, but the massive immunologic response in SLE prevents this downregulation from taking place. After formation of immune complexes, the classical complement pathway is activated, which leads to the deposition of immune complexes in different organs and is responsible for flare ups and long term complications. The most important immune abnormalities that are related to SLE development and progression are: 

Microparticles

Increased level of microparticles (MPs):[3]

Pro-inflammatory cytokines

Increased expression of specific genetic factors may be associated with promoting autoimmunity. The most important cytokine changes include:[4][3]

Signaling abnormalities

Protein kinases are responsible for intracellular cytokine signals. Intracellular signaling leads to various types of cell response, such as:

Cell signaling abnormalities leads to:

  • T and B lymphocytes cellular hyperactivity
  • T and B lymphocytes hyper responsiveness
  • Persistence of auto-reactive T cells that would otherwise have been deleted

Signaling abnormalities of T and B lymphocytes, may be due to:

B-Cell role

T-Cell role

Neutrophil role

Hormonal abnormalities

The following evidence is suggestive of the hormonal predisposition to SLE:

Hormones that are related to disease progression include:[7]

Prolactin:

Exogenous estrogen

Progesterone:

Genetics

Systemic lupus erythematosus is transmitted in a polygenic inheritance pattern. Genes involved in the pathogenesis of systemic lupus erythematosus include HLA class 2 (especially DR2 and DR3), HLA class 3 (especially complement genes including C2 and C4 genes), IFNRF5 gene, and other genes related to the immunologic system. The following evidence is also suggestive of the genetic predisposition of SLE:[10]

  • Increase occurrence of disease in identical twins
  • Increased disease frequency among first degree relatives
  • The increased occurrence of the disease in siblings of SLE patients
Class Gene subtype Function Pathological effect and Molecular mechanisms
Autoantigen presentation HLA class 2[11]
  • Associated with an overall 2- to 3-fold increase in the risk of SLE
  • More common in European and Asian people
  • HLA-DQ and HLA-DR alleles:
Immune complex dependent response HLA class 3[12]
  • Complete C2 and C4 deficiencies:
    • Rare
    • Associated with a mild form of SLE that affects mostly the joints and skin
  • Stronger genetic evidence for an association with SLE in C4A than C4-B
  • Circulating complement C4 proteins deficiency will promote autoimmunity
C1q genes[12]
Innate response Interferon (IFN) regulatory factor 5[13]
STAT4[14][15][16][17]
  • Encodes the signal transducer and activator of transcription 4 protein
The IRAK1-MECP2 region
FcγR genes[18]
Cell apoptosis regulators TREX1
IL-10
  • Increased IL-10 production by B cells and monocytes from patients with SLE is known to correlate with disease activity
IFNα regulators TNFAIP3 and TNIP1
  • Encode key regulators of the NFκB signaling pathway
  • Modulate cell activation, cytokine signaling and apoptosis
PHRF1
Regulators of Lymphocytes TNFSF4
  • The genes in this loci produce interaction induces the production of co-stimulatory signals to activate T cells
BLK[19]
  • More common in Chinese and Japanese populations
PTPN22[20]
BANK1[21][22]
  • Mutations lead to hyperctivation of B-cell receptors and the subsequent B-cell hyperactivity that is commonly observed in SLE
LYN[23]
ETS1[24][25]
IKZF1[26]
  • A novel SLE susceptibility locus in a Chinese population
  • A strong candidate locus in European-derived populations
Genes involved in immune complex clearance ITGAM[25]
  • Contributes to SLE susceptibility

Associated Conditions

Gross Pathology

On gross pathology the most important characteristic findings are:

Microscopic Pathology

On microscopic histopathological analysis, lupus erythematosus (LE) cells can be seen in SLE. LE cells are neutrophils that have engulfed an intact nucleus. LE cells are also known as LE bodies.

On microscopic histopathological analysis, apoptotic keratinocytes, vacuolization of the basement membrane, and dermal mucin deposition are characteristic findings of SLE dermatitis, and active or inactive endocapillary or extracapillary segmental glomerulonephritis are characteristic findings of SLE nephritis. Microscopic findings in systemic lupus erythematosus are based on the involved organ system.
