Objective Eosinophilic granulomatosis with polyangiitis (EGPA) is a small vessel vasculitis characterized by eosinophilia, asthma, and ear, nose, and throat (ENT) involvement. Although glucocorticoids (GCs) are effective in controlling symptoms, relapses and GC dependence are common. The aim of this study was to develop predictive models for vasculitis

Objective Interstitial lung disease (ILD) can occur in association with antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibody (ANCA)–associated vasculitis (AAV‐ILD) or as an isolated entity with positive ANCA (ANCA‐ILD). However, data on the epidemiology and outcomes of these conditions remain limited.

Objective Lupus nephritis (LN) is one of the most severe manifestations of systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) and is partially driven by type I interferon signaling. Anifrolumab, an approved treatment for patients with SLE, has been investigated in a phase 2 trial in patients with LN receiving standard therapy (TULIP‐LN, ClinicalTrials.gov identifier ...

Chlorinated lipid species in activated human neutrophils: lipid metabolites of 2-chlorohexadecanal
Neutrophils are important in the host response against invading pathogens. One chemical defense mechanism employed by neutrophils involves the production of myeloperoxidase (MPO)-derived HOCl.

Anti-myeloperoxidase antibodies stimulate neutrophils to damage human endothelial cells [PDF]
Anti-myeloperoxidase antibodies stimulate neutrophils to damage human endothelial cells. Anti-myeloperoxidase autoantibodies are found in association with idiopathic necrotizing glomerulonephritis and systemic vasculitis.

Objective Carbamylation, a nonenzymatic post‐translational modification, contributes to rheumatoid arthritis (RA) pathogenesis. Anti‐carbamylated protein antibodies (anti‐CarP) occur in around 50% of patients with RA and associate with greater joint damage. Neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs) are a major source of carbamylated autoantigens. We sought

Estradiol as an antioxidant: incompatible with its physiological concentrations and function
Estradiol has been documented to inhibit the oxidation of low density lipoprotein (LDL). We show that physiological concentrations of estradiol do not inhibit the oxidation of LDL by copper.

Pulmonary Myeloperoxidase Activity [PDF]
Neutrophils are considered one of the first responders of the innate immune response. Their primary activities are to migrate to sites of infection by chemotaxis and trans-migration across the endothelium (Gaines et al., 2005). Once at the site of infection, they phagocytize microbes and kill them.
