Lupus is not hereditary. In order to develop lupus, a person has to inherit just the right combination of quite a few different genes and then be exposed to a trigger. Children of parents with lupus have only a slightly higher chance of developing the disease.

Nephritis occurs in about 40-50% of systemic lupus erythematosus patients. If a person does not have lupus in the first place, then they will not develop lupus nephritis.

In studies of genetically identical twins lupus develops in both twins only 30% of the time, thereby demonstrating that lupus is not totally inherited.
