Simultaneous automated screening and confirmatory testing for vasculitis-specific ANCA. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2014
Anti-neutrophil cytoplasmic antibodies (ANCA) are the serological hallmark of small vessel vasculitis, so called ANCA-associated vasculitis. The international consensus requires testing by indirect immunofluorescence (IIF) on human ethanol-fixed ...

Clinical Significance of MPO-ANCA in Eosinophilic Granulomatosis With Polyangiitis: Experience From a Longitudinal Chinese Cohort

Frontiers in Immunology, 2022
ObjectivesThe aim of this study is to investigate the clinical significance of myeloperoxidase (MPO)–antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibody (ANCA) on eosinophilic granulomatosis with polyangiitis (EGPA) from a longitudinal Chinese cohort.MethodsA total of ...

ANCA-negative ANCA-associated vasculitis: pitfalls of the ‘vasculitis screen’

Clinical Medicine, 2023
Despite its recognition as an 'ANCA-associated vasculitis' (AAV), eosinophilic granulomatosis with polyangiitis (EGPA) is ANCA negative in up to 60% of cases. Herein, we report the case of a young man with a clinical syndrome highly suggestive of EGPA but with repeated negative ANCA serology, ultimately presenting with cardiac arrest before recognition

Combined Anti-glomerular Basement Membrane and Anti-Nuclear Cytoplasmic Antibody (ANCA) associated Crescentic Glomerulonephritis: A Series of 6 Cases [PDF]

Journal of Clinical and Diagnostic Research
Anti-GBM and ANCA-mediated glomerulonephritis are common causes of crescentic glomerulonephritis. Dual or double-positive glomerulonephritis is rare, with few cases reported in the literature and a worse prognosis.

Colocalization of ANCA-antigens and fibrinoid necrosis in ANCA-associated vasculitis [PDF]

Kidney International, 2001
A variety of antineutrophil cytoplasmic auto-antibodies (ANCAs) are known to be associated with small vessel vasculitides such as Wegener's granulomatosis and microscopic polyangiitis. To visualize colocalization patterns of the fibrinoid necrotic lesions and ANCA-antigens more accurately, we have developed a double staining technique in which an ...

Controversies in ANCA testing

Cleveland Clinic Journal of Medicine, 2012
Antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibody (ANCA) detection is a well-known tool for diagnosing small-vessel vasculitis. Its diagnostic utility, however, depends on the methodologic accuracy of the test and the appropriate ordering of testing in the right clinical setting.
