Abstract
Systemic autoimmunity is characterized by widespread inflammation, autoantibody production and immune complex deposition. The regulatory mechanisms for the systemic autoimmunity are not fully understood. A paper by Li et al. revealed that Egr2 and Egr3, transcription factors required for T-cell anergy, are the regulators for systemic autoimmune disease. They showed evidence that Egr2 and Egr3 control cytokine productions and cell proliferation via SOCS and Batf regulation.
