متن کاملAnti-neutrophil cytoplasmic autoantibodies in leprosy.
The objective was to evaluate the frequency of cytoplasmic and peripheral antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibodies (ANCA) in patients with leprosy, and to correlate the presence of ANCA with type and disease activity. Consecutive patients with leprosy were assessed clinically, and IgG ANCA were measured by indirect immunofluorescence. The presence of three of the following was used to assess disea...
متن کاملHow anti-neutrophil cytoplasmic autoantibodies activate neutrophils.
Neutrophils are pivotal to host defence during infectious diseases. However, activated neutrophils may also cause undesired tissue damage. Ample examples include small-vessel inflammatory diseases (vasculitis) that are associated with anti-neutrophil cytoplasmic autoantibodies (ANCA) residing in the patients' plasma. In addition to being an important diagnostic tool, convincing evidence shows t...
