Abstract: Background/Aims: A number of studies have demonstrated the inverse association between vitamin D and (i) disease activity and (ii) interferon (IFN) signature gene expression in systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). The aim of the study was to establish the effect of calcitriol supplementation to cultured macrophages and dendritic cells (DC) from a SLE patient and control, on the expression of 12 IFN signature genes, interferon regulatory factor (IRF)7 and IRF8.
