MXD1 and systemic lupus erythematosus: MXI1 has been implicated in IFNα mediated immune system activation and its dysregulation in SLE [85] while Mxd1 regulates inflammation via Vitamin D and also alters leukocyte proliferation and therefore immunity via cross-talk with microRNA 155 [86], a microRNA which was also implicated to interact with QXI.
