Systemic lupus erythematosus presenting with lupus nephritis

Systemic lupus erythematosus often abbreviated as SLE or lupus, is a systemic autoimmune disease, in which the body’s immune system mistakenly attacks healthy tissue. Lupus is characterized by the presence of antibodies against a person's own proteins; these are most commonly anti-nuclear antibodies, which are found in nearly all cases. These antibodies lead to inflammation.
