Clinical Utility of Serum Ribonuclease 1(RNASE1) as a Biomarker of Lupus Nephritis.
Ribonuclease 1 (RNASE1) is a secreted endoribonuclease predominantly produced by endothelial cells and plays an essential role in the degradation of extracellular RNA \[11\]. These are suggested to promote endothelial activation, immune cell infiltration and activation, so promote inflammatory responses \[12-15\]. Since that endothelial dysfunction \& inflammatory signalling are central mechanism in LN pathogenesis, dysregulation of RNASE1 mediated extracellular RNA clearance may contribute to renal inflammatory injury, suggesting RNASE1 as a potential biomarker in LN
