FOUR TYPES OF LUPUS
1) Systemic lupus erythematosus
4) Neonatal lupus
SYSTEMIC LUPUS
ERYTHEMATOUS (SLE)
Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) is a
chronic inflammatory disease that is
characterized by an autoantibody response to
nuclear and cytoplasmic antigens.
It can affect the skin, joints, kidneys, brain,
and other organs.

CUTANEOUS LUPUS ERYTHEMATOSUS
In this autoimmune disease, the body’s
immune system attacks healthy
skin. Cutaneous lupus is
sometimes diagnosed in people who
have systemic lupus erythematosus

PATHOGENESIS OF DILE
Three theories about DILE
Drug Metabolites – metabolites of the drug are
subjected to oxidative metabolism and serve as a
substrate for myeloperoxidase, which is activated in
polymorphonuclear neutrophils.
https://emedicine.medscape.com/article/1065086-overview#a4
SEVERAL BROAD DRUG CATEGORIES
LINKED TO DILE:
Antiarrhythmics - Procainamide and Quinidine
Antibiotics – Minocycline , Isoniazid, Rifabutin
Antifungals - Griseofulvin and Voriconazole
Anticonvulsants - Valproate, Ethosuximide,
Carbamazepine, and Hydantoins
Anti-inflammatory - Penicillamine and sulfasalazine
Antihypertensives - Hydralazine, methyldopa, and
Captopril
Antipsychotics - Chlorpromazine
Cholesterol-lowering agents - Lovastatin, Simvastatin
(DISCLE), Atorvastatin, and Gemfibrozil
Inhalers - Tiotropium bromide inhaler
Other drug categories - Ophthalmic timolol
ADDITIONAL DRUGS THAT MAY CAUSE
DILE INCLUDE THE FOLLOWING:
Acebutolol Hydrochlorothiazide Phenytoin
Amiodarone (SLE (DISCLE) Practolol
and SCLE) Imiquimod (DISCLE) Propylthiouracil
Atenolol Lamotrigine Reserpine
Bupropion Lansoprazole Rifampin
Cefepime (DISCLE)
Rifamycin
Diltiazem Leflunomide
(DISCLE) Sertraline
Doxorubicin Terbinafine
(DISCLE) Lithium
(DISCLE)
Doxycycline Mephenytoin
Tetracycline
(DISCLE) Methimazole (bullous
SLE) Ticlopidine
Esomeprazole
(DISCLE) Nitrofurantoin Trimethadione
Fluorouracil Olanzapine
Glyburide Omeprazole
Gold salt (DISCLE)
Hydroxychloroquine Oral contraceptives
DIFFERENCE BETWEEN SLE AND DILE
NEONATAL LUPUS

CAUSES OF SYSTEMIC LUPUS
ERYTHEMATOSUS
Hormones - Because nine of every 10
occurrences of lupus are in females, researchers
have looked at the relationship between estrogen
and lupus.
Genetics - Researchers have now identified
more than 50 genes which they associate with
lupus. These genes are more commonly seen in
people with lupus than in those without the
disease.
Environment – Most commonly cited are
ultraviolet light (UVA and UVB); infections
(including the effects of the Epstein-Barr virus),
and exposure to silica dust in agricultural or
industrial settings.

HOW TO DIAGNOSE?
Laboratory tests
Complete blood count
Hemoglobin - In men: 135-175 grams/L In women: 120-
155 grams/L
WBC - 3,500 to 10,500 cells/mcL

HOW TO DIAGNOSE?
Imaging Tests
Chest X-ray
Electrocardiogram
Biopsy
Other Tests
Anti-dsDNA Antibody
Anti-Smith Antibody
Anti-U1RNP Antibody
Anti-Ro/SSA and Anti-La/SSB Antibodies
