MHCII+ monocytes are present in the urine of patients with active lupus nephritis, and their frequency correlates with disease activity. (A) Cumulative percentage of MHCIIhi cells within the CD14+CD163+ population in blood from healthy donors (HD) and patients with active lupus nephritis (LN; left) and lupus patients with high and low proteinuria (right). (B) Correlation of percentage of blood MHCII+ monocytes and disease index activity (SLEDAI). (C) Cumulative data and representative gating strategy showing the percentages of CD14+CD163+ cells within the live CD45+ cells (left panel) and MHCIIhi cells within the CD14+CD163+ population in urine from patients with active LN (right panel), separated based on the level of proteinuria (≥532 mg/24 h = high proteinuria). *, P < 0.05. FSC, forward scatter. (D) The correlation of percentage urine MHCIIhi monocytes and SLEDAI is shown.
