However, the agonists of inhibitory immune receptors remain largely unknown, representing untapped sources of treatments for autoimmune diseases. Here, we show that V-set and transmembrane domain-containing 1 (VSTM1) is an inhibitory receptor and that its binding by the competent ligand soluble galectin-1 (Gal1) is essential for maintaining neutrophil viability mediated by downregulated reactive oxygen species production. However, in patients with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), circulating Gal1 is oxidized and cannot be recognized by VSTM1, leading to increased intracellular reactive oxygen species levels and reduced neutrophil viability. Dysregulated neutrophil function or death contributes significantly to the pathogenesis of SLE by providing danger molecules and autoantigens that drive the production of inflammatory cytokines and the activation of autoreactive lymphocytes. Interestingly, serum levels of glutathione, an antioxidant able to convert oxidized Gal1 to its reduced form, were negatively correlated with SLE disease activity. Taken together, our findings reveal failed inhibitory Gal1/VSTM1 pathway activation in patients with SLE and provide important insights for the development of effective targeted therapies."xsd:string
