Lupus nephritis (LN) is a common complication of systemic lupus erythematosus. Vitamin D and cycline-dependent kinase-1 (CDK1) have been implicated in its pathogenesis. The aim of this study was to determine the relation between vitamin D level and CDK-1 in lupus nephritis patients and their impact on disease activity.
