The antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibody-associated vasculitides.
Wegener's granulomatosis, microscopic polyangiitis, and Churg-Strauss syndrome are small- to medium-vessel vasculitides linked by overlapping pathology and the presence of antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibodies (ANCA). Commonly referred to as the ANCA-associated vasculitides, these diseases are challenging to diagnose and to treat. Distinguishing the ANCA-associated vasculitides from other forms...
متن کاملAntineutrophil cytoplasmic antibody-associated vasculitides and respiratory disease.
Vasculitides associated with serum positivity for antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibodies (ANCAs) are a well-established subgroup affecting small- to medium-sized vessels that are commonly recognized as ANCA-associated vasculitis, which includes necrotizing granulomatous vasculitis (NGV) [formerly Wegener granulomatosis], microscopic polyangiitis (MPA), and Churg-Strauss syndrome. NGV usually sta...
متن کاملPeripheral CD5+ B cells in antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibody-associated vasculitis.
OBJECTIVE CD5+ B cells have been conceptualized as a possible surrogate for Breg cells. The aim of the present study was to determine the utility of CD5+ B cells as biomarkers in antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibody-associated vasculitis (AAV). METHODS The absolute and relative numbers (percentages) of CD5+ B cells (explanatory variables) were measured longitudinally during 18 months in 197 pa...
متن کاملAntineutrophil cytoplasmic antibody (ANCA)-associated autoimmune diseases induced by antithyroid drugs: comparison with idiopathic ANCA vasculitides
Clinical and serological profiles of idiopathic and drug-induced autoimmune diseases can be very similar. We compared data from idiopathic and antithyroid drug (ATD)-induced antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibody (ANCA)-positive patients. From 1993 to 2003, 2474 patients were tested for ANCA in the Laboratory for Allergy and Clinical Immunology in Belgrade. Out of 2474 patients, 72 (2.9%) were ant...
متن کاملTreatment of antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibody-associated vasculitis.
PURPOSE OF REVIEW The primary idiopathic small-vessel vasculitis syndromes include granulomatosis with polyangiitis, Churg-Strauss syndrome, and microscopic polyangiitis. These disorders are commonly referred to as antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibody (ANCA)-associated vasculitides and prominently affect the pulmonary vasculature. Although significant progress has been made in the management of ...
