Anti-neutrophil cytoplasmic antibodies in leprosy [PDF]

Clinical Rheumatology, 2006
Anti-Neutrophil Cytoplasmic Antibodies (ANCA) are auto-antibodies directed to intracellular components of neutrophils and used to be considered as present almost exclusively in granulomatous vasculitis. Recently, these auto-antibodies have been found in other autoimmune disorders as well as infectious diseases.We studied patients with leprosy confirmed
