Propylthiouracil-induced cutaneous vasculitis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
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

open access: yesThe Laryngoscope, EarlyView.
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”

ANTINEUTROPHIL CYTOPLASMIC ANTIBODIES LEVELS IN THE PATIENTS WITH FAMILIAL MEDITERRANEAN FEVER DURING ACUTE ATTACK

open access: yesEurasian Journal of Medicine, 2019
Antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibodies (ANCA) are autoantibodies directed at lysosomal constituens of leucocytes, with two major immunufluoresence stainig patterns: cytoplasmic (c-ANCA), and perinuclear (p-ANCA).

Significance of anti-neutrophil cytoplasmic antibodies in systemic sclerosis

open access: yesArthritis Research & Therapy, 2019
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 ...

Hydralazine-induced antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibody-associated vasculitis with pulmonary–renal syndrome: a case report

open access: yesJournal of Medical Case Reports, 2020
Background Hydralazine is a common vasodilator which has been used for the treatment of hypertension and heart failure. Hydralazine can induce antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibody-associated vasculitis due to its auto-immunogenic capability and one of the

An update on the landscape of collagen bioactive fragments

open access: yesThe FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
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 ...
