Abstract
⺠Urinary mRNA level of MCP-1, IL-17, GATA-3 and FOXP3 levels changes before lupus disease flare. ⺠The changes in urinary IL-17 and GATA-3 level correlate with the SLEDAI score in the subsequent flare. ⺠Monitoring of mRNA levels in urinary sediment may provide an early clue for detecting lupus flare.
