Propylthiouracil-induced cutaneous vasculitis [PDF]
The use of propylthiouracil (PTU) is associated with the development of different auto-antibodies, amongst them are antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibodies (ANCA) that are involved in the pathogenesis of ANCA associated systemic vasculitis.

Systemic Immunosuppression to Reduce Surgical Intervention in ANCA‐Negative Subglottic Stenosis
Idiopathic subglottic stenosis (iSGS) typically follows an indolent course managed with surgical dilatation, though a subset demonstrates aggressive, recurrent disease. In this retrospective cohort study, systemic immunosuppression significantly prolonged inter‐dilation intervals in both granulomatosis with polyangiitis‐associated SGS and an “atypical”

Significance of anti-neutrophil cytoplasmic antibodies in systemic sclerosis
Background Up to 12% of patients with systemic sclerosis (SSc) have anti-neutrophil cytoplasmic antibodies (ANCA). However, the majority of these patients do not manifest ANCA-associated vasculitis (AAV) and the significance of ANCA in these patients is ...

An update on the landscape of collagen bioactive fragments
The remodeling of the extracellular matrix releases collagen bioactive fragments, which exert molecular functions and regulate numerous biological processes via several signaling pathways. Here, we summarize the latest findings describing the roles of major bioactive fragments from collagens I, IV, VI, and XVIII in various physiological and ...
