We observed dysregulation of major IFN-inducible gene transcripts in all the three SLE patients’ subsets that included IFI27 (12), LY6E (6), IFI44 (1), IFI6 (1), ISG15 (1), OAS1 (1) (Numbers in parentheses are the count of transcripts of a gene that are differentially expressed) (Fig 7, S4 Table). This evidence concerns the gene IFI27 and systemic lupus erythematosus.
