Abstract
Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) is a heterogeneous autoimmune disease characterized by a progressive breakdown of immune tolerance to self-antigens, resulting in multiple tissue damage and clinical symptoms. Innate and adaptive immune cells including dendritic cells, macrophages, myeloid-derived suppressor cells (MDSCs), T cells and B cells are the key drivers in perpetuating and amplifying of this systemic disease. In this review we offer a comprehensive overview of recent advances in understanding the immune-pathogenesis of SLE with particular emphasis on regulatory immune cells exhibiting immunosuppressive properties, as well as newly identified factors influencing immune cell function and lineage differentiation. Furthermore, we discuss traditional Chinese medicine and natural extracts that have shown therapeutic effects on SLE by modulating immune cell differentiation and function, which may provide insights into their clinical applications.
