As shown in Fig 7D and 7E, NKp46 expression were much higher on CD56 bright NK subsets, compared to that on CD56dim subsets, in controls and SLE patient s alike (controls: 2124.1±142.8 vs. 1517.3±65.0, p = 0.001; inactive SLE: 3290.9±362.7 vs. 2154.1±170.9, p = 0.024; active SLE: 3058.0±270.9 vs. 2190.4±217.2, p = 0.039). Here, NCAM1 is linked to systemic lupus erythematosus.
