The individual or legal guardian agrees to participate in this experiment and signs the informed consent form. Exclusion Criteria: 1. Diseases of the central nervous system that have clinical significance in the past or during screening, such as seizures, epilepsy, epileptic seizures, cerebrovascular disease (ischemia/hemorrhage), cerebral edema, reversible posterior white matter encephalopathy, paralysis, aphasia, stroke, severe brain injury, dementia, Parkinson's disease, cerebellar disease, organic brain syndrome, encephalitis, CNS vasculitis, or psychiatric disorders; 2. Screening for acute severe lupus nephritis within the first 2 months, defined as significant deterioration of kidney disease (such as the presence of urine sediment and other laboratory abnormalities) that the researcher believes may require the use of contraindicated drugs or high-dose corticosteroids (prednisone ≥ 100 mg/d or equivalent corticosteroid treatment ≥ 14 days) for treatment in the first 2 months of the study. 3. If there is an uncontrolled lupus crisis within the first 2 months of screening, the researcher has assessed that it is not suitable to participate in this study; 4. A large amount of serous fluid accumulation (such as pleural effusion and peritoneal effusion) with compression symptoms that cannot be controlled after treatment; 5. Other active autoimmune diseases (such as Crohn's disease and rheumatoid arthritis) that require systemic immunosuppressive therapy within the first 2 years of screening, except for SLE; 6. Patients who have received or are waiting for hematopoietic stem cell/bone marrow transplantation or organ transplantation in the past; 7. Individuals who have previously received gene modified cell therapy, such as TCR-T therapy, CAR-T therapy, etc; 8. Screening for clinical study drugs used for any other autoimmune diseases within the first 3 months. But if the research treatment is ineffective or if the disease progresses, and at least 5 half lives have passed before screening, it is allowed to be included in the group; 9. Have a history of ≥ grade 2 bleeding within 30 days prior to screening, or require long-term continuous use of anticoagulant drugs (such as warfarin, low molecular weight heparin, or Xa factor inhibitors) for treatment; 10. Vaccination with live or attenuated vaccines within 6 weeks prior to screening; 11. Active hepatitis B or hepatitis C virus is defined as: subjects who are positive for hepatitis B B surface antigen (HBsAg) or hepatitis B core antibody (HBcAb) and whose peripheral blood HBV-DNA detection is higher than the lower limit of detection (HBsAg positive but whose peripheral blood HBV-DNA detection is lower than the lower limit of detection according to the Guidelines for the Prevention and Treatment of Chronic Hepatitis B, Version 2022, at least 4 weeks of antiviral treatment shall be carried out before the first use of the study drug, and antiviral treatment shall be continued for 6-12 months during the study process, and the levels of HBV-DNA, HBsAg and ALT shall be monitored every 1-3 months); Hepatitis C virus (HCV) antibody positive and peripheral blood HCV-RNA detection above the detection limit; HIV antibody positive; Positive syphilis antibody; 12. Active EB virus and cytomegalovirus, defined as: subjects with positive or negative IgM antibodies in EB virus serum but EBV-DNA higher than normal values; Subjects with IgM antibody positive or IgM antibody negative but CMV-DNA higher than normal in the serum of cytomegalovirus (CMV); 13. Within the past year, there have been severe chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, interstitial lung disease, severe asthma, and clinically significant abnormalities in lung function tests, such as moderate to severe pulmonary arterial hypertension (average pulmonary arterial pressure detected by echocardiography\>60mmHg) that require oxygen storage mask oxygen therapy or non-invasive or invasive ventilator assisted breathing during screening; Interstitial lung disease related to autoimmune diseases must meet all inclusion criteria; 14.

The researcher shall determine whether the subjects have any factors that affect compliance with the protocol, or are unwilling or unable to comply with the procedures required in the research protocol.
