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

“…Several hypotheses are currently experimentally tested to further elucidate the direct induction of inflammation through interaction of the pathological autoantibodies with intrinsic glomerular components and the triggering of a complement-driven autoinflammatory cascade. 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. …”
