Figure 4From: Increased expression of FcγRI/CD64 on circulating monocytes parallels ongoing inflammation and nephritis in lupusEffect of medications and cytokines on FcγRI/CD64 expression by circulating monocytes. (a) Comparison of FcγRI/CD64 expression on monocytes between systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) patients receiving or not receiving prednisone, antimalarials, cytotoxic drugs, or statins. MFI, mean fluorescence intensity. (b) Relationship between daily corticosteroid dose and monocyte FcγRI/CD64 expression in SLE patients. *P < 0.05 compared with SLE patients not receiving steroid treatment.Back to article page
