Targeting the B-Cell Pathway in Lupus Nephritis: Current Evidence and Future Perspectives by Panagiotis Pateinakis, Athina Pyrpasopoulou

“…B-cells have, in the last decade, emerged as a promising new therapeutic target, as biological treatments successfully attempting B-cell depletion, inhibition of B-cell proliferation and differentiation, or modulation of B-cell function have become bioengineered. Clinical trials have so far proved controversial regarding the efficacy of these new agents. …”
