Anti‐dsDNA, anti‐nucleosome, anti‐C1q, and anti‐histone antibodies as markers of active lupus nephritis and systemic lupus erythematosus disease activity

Introduction Previous studies of anti‐dsDNA, nucleosome (Nucl), histone (His), and C1q antibodies have revealed their clinical value in systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). However, the correlation between four autoantibodies and SLE activity, lupus nephritis (LN) remains controversial, and data a…
