To further strengthen our findings, we compared DEGs resulting from our analysis (CNS‐SLE patient‐derived hiPSCs) with those published in a recent work by Tang et al (SLE patient‐derived hiPSCs).14 Although the benefits of RNA‐seq over microarray in transcriptome profiling are well known, our analysis focused on 11 of 67 genes that resulted as common DEGs in CNS‐SLE and SLE in all the comparisons, as shown in Figure 2A. IPA revealed that 7 out of 11 genes are involved in Erk and Akt signalling (Figure 2B). The gene discussed is AKT1; the disease is systemic lupus erythematosus.
