- Lupus is a chronic, autoimmune disease that can damage any part of the body. Nine out of ten patients diagnosed with lupus are female, so immune system researchers are investigating exactly how lupus is linked to sex-based differences in the body.
In this seminar, Montserrat Anguera, Ph.D., Associate Professor at the University of Pennsylvania presents her research into the epigenetic mechanisms of X-chromosome inactivation in female lymphocytes, and how these pathways are altered in female-biased lupus disease.
Dr. Anguera shared her research as part of the Tremblay-Jacobs Symposium on Human Autoimmunity: Novel Approaches,” hosted at La Jolla Institute for Immunology (LJI) on January 30, 2024. The Tremblay-Jacobs Symposium is the brainchild of LJI Board Director (2018-2024) Geneviève Tremblay Jacobs, a philanthropist committed to advancing autoimmune disease research. This annual gathering provides a unique forum to explore the latest findings on the causes and treatment options for autoimmune diseases while fostering the development of potential collaborations, and ultimately accelerating treatments for patients.
Presented at La Jolla Institute for Immunology (LJI).
