Convergent nucleic-acid sensing and IFNAR–JAK–STAT signaling, modulated by post-transcriptional control, epigenetic modifications, and non-coding RNAs, yield interferon-stimulated gene signatures that are typically more pronounced in systemic lupus erythematosus and more heterogeneous across rheumatoid arthritis and vasculitis. This evidence concerns the gene SOAT1 and vasculitis.
