The relationship between Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) and Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) infection has been suggested for decades, but the underlying mechanism of the EBV influence on SLE development remains to be elucidated. The goals of this research, which included 103 SLE patients and 99 controls, were to investigate the association of the parameters of EBV infection and SLE, to explore whether pooled demographic, clinical and EBV markers achieve a more significant effect on SLE development than each of them individually, and to evaluate EBV nuclear antigen 1 (EBNA1) and latent membrane protein 1 (LMP1) gene polymorphisms in isolates from SLE patients. Comprehensive results related to serological, molecular and sequence markers of EBV infection in SLE patients demonstrated even 24 times higher possibility of having SLE if there is the presence of anti-EBV-EA(D) (early antigen) IgG antibodies (OR=24.086 95%CI OR=2.86-216.07, p=0.004). There was the same distribution of glucocorticoids (p=0.130), antimalarials (p=0.213), and immunosuppressives (p=0.712) in anti-EBV-EA(D) IgG positive and negative SLE patients. Further, higher anti-EBV-EA(D) IgG antibodies titers were identified as independent factors associated with lymphopenia, hematological SLE manifestation (OR=1.041, 95%CI OR=1.01-1.08, p=0.025, while a higher titer of anti-CA (viral capsid antigen) IgG antibodies (OR=1.015, 95%CI OR=1.01-1.03, p=0.019) and positive RF (rheumatoid factors) (OR=4.871, 95%CI OR=1.52-15.61, p=0.008) were identified as independent factors associated with alopecia within SLE. Finally, novel data on EBV EBNA1 and LMP1 gene polymorphisms in lupus are reported. The results support further investigation targeting EBV as a prognostic marker and therapeutic goal for lupus.
