Abstract
Determination of disease activity of lupus nephritis remains challenging. Since cytokines play a role as inflammatory mediators extending renal injury, measuring serum cytokine levels might help in the clinical assessment of patients with lupus nephritis. Therefore, the aim of this study was to determine the diagnostic value of a panel of serum cytokines in patients with active lupus nephritis.
