Lupus does vary in intensity and degree, so some people may have mild case but other patients’ illness condition cannot be controlled. For people who have a severe flare-up, there is a greater chance that their lupus may be life-threatening. Although they have tried many therapies, all of the symptoms have no remission. It is known that some people do die of this disease, so it is important to find an effective treatment for patients.

"I have heard that Immunotherapy can treat some disease. Is it available for lupus treatment?"

Lupus is mainly caused by the disordered immune system. The antibodies or immune cells cannot recognize the healthy cells and strike them, resulting in serious damage in many tissues and organs, especially in skin, joints, blood and kidneys. For example, some patients have so severe dental ulcer that they cannot take any food for a long time or some patients have damaged kidney which may develop into renal failure.

Immunotherapy can save them from all the ailments. So they can produce immune cells to replace the damaged ones and people’s immune system can be rebuild and turn to normal. So the damage in any tissues and organs will be blocked.


Furthermore, Immunotherapy also can provide a variety of cells to promote the recovery of any damaged tissues. That is the reason why people can turn to normal more quickly. And this therapy need no surgery but just Immunotherapy to treat disease. So it brings bout no sufferings for patients.
