Mixed Connective Tissue Disease
Current Opinion in Rheumatology, 2000A defining feature of mixed connective tissue disease (MCTD) is the presence of antibodies against the U1-ribonucleoprotein (RNP) complex, but other autoantibodies in MCTD have recently been described. Research has also further elucidated the immune responses directed against U1-RNP in humans and in murine models of disease.

Undifferentiated connective tissue disease
Orvosi Hetilap, 2009Evolution of immunopathological diseases is usually slow and progressive. Non-differentiated collagen disease (NDC) or the term “undifferentiated connective tissue disease” (UCTD) represents a stage of disease where clinical symptoms and serological abnormalities suggest autoimmune disease, but they are not sufficient to fulfill the diagnostic ...

Mixed connective tissue disease
Clinics in Dermatology, 1985Abstract Mixed connective tissue disease (MCTD) was first described by Gordon Sharp, 1 in 1972, as a distinct connective tissue disorder characterized by overlapping features of systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), progressive systemic sclerosis (PSS), and dermato/polymyositis (DP/PM).

Mixed Connective Tissue Disease
AJN, American Journal of Nursing, 1977Coping with chronic illness has become a personal experience for me. For the past 13 years, I have gone through various stages of coping with mixed connective tissue disease (MCTD), a rare collagen-vascular disease of unknown origin that resembles scleroderma, lupus erythematosus, and polymyositis.

Undifferentiated connective tissue disease
Oral Surgery, Oral Medicine, Oral Pathology, 1984The purpose of this article is to bring to the attention of clinicians the diagnostic difficulties encountered in some patients with connective tissue syndromes. The relevant literature is reviewed, and a case of undifferentiated connective tissue disease in a patient with an oral mucosal disorder is described.

Mixed connective tissue disease
Best Practice & Research Clinical Rheumatology, 2016The concept of mixed connective tissue disease (MCTD) as a separate connective tissue disease (CTD) has persisted for more than four decades. High titers of antibodies targeting the U1 small nuclear ribonucleoprotein particle (U1 snRNP) in peripheral blood are a sine qua non for the diagnosis of MCTD, in addition to distinct clinical features including

Clinics in Plastic Surgery, 1993
The classic connective tissue diseases (lupus erythematosus, dermatomyositis, and scleroderma) have been described with respect to their pathogenesis, clinical picture, laboratory diagnosis, and management. Because the aim of this volume is to provide an interface between plastic surgery and dermatology, the cutaneous manifestations, both shared and ...
