TLR7 in systemic lupus erythematosus: genetics and emerging therapies
Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) is a disease with considerable unmet treatment needs. Endosomal nucleic acid sensing by Toll-like receptor 7 (TLR7) is emerging as a key pathogenic pathway. Gain-of-function mutations in the genes encoding TLR7 and its chaperone UNC93B1 can cau…
