    Scientists at Northwestern University believe they may have found what causes the autoimmune disease, lupus.

    Researchers identified a molecular defect that impacts the body's immune system. They say that this discovery could pave the way for targeted treatments, some even going as far as to say a reversal for the disease.

    Lupus affects more than one and a half million people in the US and can damage organs like the kidneys, brain, and heart.

    Dr. Matthew Else of the Utica Park Clinic joined News On 6 to better understand lupus and what researchers are so excited about.
