The exact pathogenesis and cause of SLE is poorly understood. Epstein-Barr Virus (EBV)-induced dysregulation of immune responses is one proposed mechanism for SLE pathogenesis. EBV encodes >44 viral microRNAs, which have been shown to manipulate several biological processes including immune responses. Data on which EBV miRNAs, if any, are upregulated in SLE patients can give mechanistic insight into the genes involved in SLE and how EBV contributes to the development of this disease. We performed secondary analysis on publicly-available SLE sequencing dataset for human and viral miRNAs, then expanded the analysis to include other autoimmune disorders. 000010086 540__ $$fCC BY 000010086 650__ $$aLupus Erythematosus, Systemic$$021656 000010086 650__ $$aAutoimmune Diseases$$015237 000010086 650__ $$aMicroRNAs$$034671 000010086 650__ $$aEpstein-Barr Virus Infections$$032072 000010086 6531_ $$asle 000010086 691__ $$aSchool of Medicine$$041369 000010086 7001_ $$aIvanov, Nikita$$uOregon Health and Science University$$041354 000010086 7201_ $$aChu, Cong-Qiu$$uOregon Health and Science University$$041354$$7Personal$$eMentor 000010086 7201_ $$aSkalsky, Rebecca$$uOregon Health and Science University$$041354$$7Personal$$ePI 000010086 8564_ $$96582d365-2d50-4689-abd5-07557b76e7e1$$s2779919$$uhttps://digitalcollections.ohsu.edu/record/10086/files/Ivanov.Nikita.2023.pdf 000010086 905__ $$a/rest/prod/t7/22/h9/60/t722h960p 000010086 909CO $$ooai:digitalcollections.ohsu.edu:10086$$pstudent-work 000010086 980__ $$aScholarly Project Capstones
