T-cell specific defect in expression of the NTPDase CD39 as a biomarker for lupusMatthew J Loza
Center for Human Genomics, Wake Forest University Health Sciences, Winston Salem, NC, USA
Cell Immunol 271:110-7. 2011..These results suggest that functional defects in T(regs), rather than reduced T(reg) numbers, are important for the loss of peripheral tolerance in lupus. Presentation of this defect may serve as a biomarker for untreated disease...
