Eosinophils in anti-neutrophil cytoplasmic antibody associated vasculitis
Background Anti-neutrophil cytoplasmic antibodies associated vasculitides (AAV) are characterized by autoimmune small vessel inflammation. Eosinophils are multifunctional cells with both pro-inflammatory and immunoregulatory properties.

Anti-neutrophil cytoplasmic antibodies in leprosy [PDF]
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

Characterizing infection in anti-neutrophil cytoplasmic antibody-associated vasculitis:results from a longitudinal, matched-cohort data linkage study [PDF]
Objectives: Infection exerts a major burden in ANCA-associated vasculitis (AAV), however, its precise extent and nature remains unclear. In this national study we aimed to longitudinally quantify, characterize and contextualize infection risk in AAV ...
