Systemic lupus erythematosus in Staphylococcus aureus hyperimmunoglobulinaemia E syndrome

British Medical Journal
K SchopferL Matter

Abstract

The prevalence of autoimmune diseases, including systemic lupus erythematosus, is increased in failure of certain host defence mechanisms. Systemic lupus erythematosus, however, has not been recorded as a late complication of the Staphylococcus aureus hyperimmunoglobulinaemia E (hyper-IgE) syndrome. Such a case was investigated in a man suffering from a classic example of the syndrome. Antinuclear antibodies were analysed on a molecular basis. The emergence of immunological and clinical features of systemic lupus erythematosus in patients with defective host defence mechanisms against staphylococcal infections is unlikely to be fortuitous and may help elucidate the pathogenesis of systemic lupus erythematosus. The observations will also aid the long term management of patients with S aureus hyper-IgE syndrome.

CRISPR & Staphylococcus

CRISPR-Cas system enables the editing of genes to create or correct mutations. Staphylococci are associated with life-threatening infections in hospitals, as well as the community. Here is the latest research on how CRISPR-Cas system can be used for treatment of Staphylococcal infections.

Autoimmune Diseases

Autoimmune diseases occur as a result of an attack by the immune system on the body’s own tissues resulting in damage and dysfunction. There are different types of autoimmune diseases, in which there is a complex and unknown interaction between genetics and the environment. Discover the latest research on autoimmune diseases here.
