AB0484 PROTEINASE 3–ANTINEUTROPHIL CYTOPLASMIC ANTIBODY (ANCA)–POSITIVE AND ANCA–NEGATIVE OR MYELOPEROXIDASE–ANCA–POSITIVE PATIENTS WITH GRANULOMATOSIS WITH POLYANGIITIS: DISTINCT PATIENT SUBSETS

Myeloperoxidase-Antineutrophil Cytoplasmic Antibody (ANCA)-Positive and ANCA-Negative Patients With Granulomatosis With Polyangiitis (Wegener's): Distinct Patient Subsets.

OBJECTIVE To examine the relationship of antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibody (ANCA) type and ANCA-associated vasculitis (AAV) diagnosis with demographic features, disease manifestations, and clinical outcomes. We focused on patients who account for the differences between ANCA type and disease type classifications: anti-myeloperoxidase (MPO)-ANCA-positive and ANCA-negative patients with granulo...

An Unusual Presentation of Granulomatosis with Polyangiitis

The granulomatosis with polyangiitis (GPA), formerly known as Wegener’s granulomatosis, is a pauci-immune vasculitis involving small- and medium-sized blood vessels. Classically, the patients inflicted with this disease present with a triad of necrotizing granulomatous inflammation of the respiratory tract, cutaneous necrotizing vasculitis, and glomerulonephritis (GN). The antinuclear (ANA) and...

Antibody-positive Granulomatosis with Polyangiitis with Chronic Hypertrophic Renal Involvement in Antimyeloperoxidase Antineutrophil Cytoplasmic MIYASAKA

IgA and IgG antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibody engagement of Fc receptor genetic variants influences granulomatosis with polyangiitis.

Granulomatosis with polyangiitis (Wegener's) is a rare autoimmune neutrophil-mediated vasculitis that can cause renal disease and mucosal manifestations. Antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibodies (ANCA) are present in many patients, vary in level over time, and induce neutrophil activation through engagement with Fc receptors (FcRs). Given roles for FcRs in ANCA-mediated neutrophil activation and I...
