Identification of immunological characteristics and cuproptosis-related molecular clusters in primary Sj ögren's syndrome
CONCLUSION: In this study, we systematically analyzed the association between pSS and cuproptosis, established a predictive model that screened for high-risk genes linked to the advancement of pSS, and explored the pathogenic mechanisms and novel therapeutic strategies for pSS, targeting EED, CBL and NFU1.PMID:37984252 | DOI:10.1016/j.intimp.2023.111251 (Source: International Immunopharmacology)
