Mixed connective tissue disease

Clinics in Dermatology, 1985
Abstract 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

Current Opinion in Rheumatology, 2000
A 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.

Mixed Connective-Tissue Disease

New England Journal of Medicine, 1977
Coping 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.

Mixed connective tissue disease

Best Practice & Research Clinical Rheumatology, 2016
The 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

Pediatric Mixed Connective Tissue Disease

Current Rheumatology Reports, 2016
Pediatric-onset mixed connective tissue disease is among the rare disease entities in pediatric rheumatology and includes features of arthritis, polymyositis/dermatomyositis, systemic lupus erythematosus, and systemic sclerosis. Accurate recognition and diagnosis of the disease is paramount to prevent long-term morbidity.
