Eosinophilic granulomatosis with polyangiitis: A review
Eosinophilic granulomatosis with polyangiitis (EGPA) is a rare, multi-system, inflammatory disease, belonging to the group of anti-neutrophil cytoplasmic antibody (ANCA)-associated vasculitides (AAV). Previously known as Churg-Strauss syndrome, EGPA is characterised by late-onset asthma, eosinophilia and vasculitis affecting small-to-medium vessels ...

Mepolizumab or placebo for eosinophilic granulomatosis with polyangiitis [PDF]
Background Eosinophilic granulomatosis with polyangiitis is an eosinophilic vasculitis. Mepolizumab, an anti–interleukin-5 monoclonal antibody, reduces blood eosinophil counts and may have value in the treatment of eosinophilic granulomatosis with ...

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 ...

The role of the host—Neutrophil biology
Abstract Neutrophilic polymorphonuclear leukocytes (neutrophils) are myeloid cells packed with lysosomal granules (hence also called granulocytes) that contain a formidable antimicrobial arsenal. They are terminally differentiated cells that play a critical role in acute and chronic inflammation, as well as in the resolution of inflammation and wound ...
