Abstract
En 中文
• This study aimed to investigate the role of KIR+CD8+ regulatory T cells in SLE. • SLE patients exhibit a notable reduction in lymphocyte counts and an increase in effector CD4+ T cells, plasmablast, and CD8 + CD28-T cells, with no change in Treg cells compared to healthy controls. • CD8 + T cells highly express KIRs in SLE, and there is a negative correlation between the levels of CD158e + CD8 + T cells and disease activity. • KIR+CD8 + T cells in SLE demonstrate impaired cytotoxic functions, with downregulation of cytotoxicity-related genes.
