Alpha-1-antitrypsin phenotyping in ANCA-associated diseases: one of several arguments for protease/antiprotease imbalance in systemic vasculitis.

Numai utilizatorii înregistrați pot traduce articole

The vasculitic lesions observed in Wegener's granulomatosis may be partly the consequence of proteases released following activation of neutrophils by ANCA. The activity of these proteases, including proteinase 3 (PR3) and elastase, is normally closely restricted to the inflammation site by a large

Azurocidin is a novel antigen for anti-neutrophil cytoplasmic autoantibodies (ANCA) in systemic vasculitis.

We isolated a 27-kD protein using cation exchange chromatography from an acid extract of neutrophil granules. N-terminal amino acid sequence analysis of the first 10 residues showed that this protein is azurocidin, a member of the family of neutral serine proteinase found in the neutrophil, which

Antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibodies (ANCA) and systemic vasculitis: update of assays, immunopathogenesis, controversies, and report of a novel de novo ANCA-associated vasculitis after kidney transplantation.

OBJECTIVE To characterize antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibodies (ANCA), their major autoantigens, disease associations, and pathophysiology in systemic vasculitides. To describe a patient with a novel de novo ANCA-associated vasculitis after kidney transplantation. METHODS We reviewed and compiled

Primary systemic vasculitis with severe α1-antitrypsin deficiency revisited.

Numai utilizatorii înregistrați pot traduce articole

OBJECTIVE To study the clinical characteristics and epidemiology of the combination of primary systemic vasculitis (PSV) and severe alpha-1 antitrypsin (α1-AT) deficiency. METHODS Patients with PSV [granulomatosis with polyangiitis (GPA) (Wegener's), microscopic polyangiitis, eosinophilic

Systemic vasculitis associated with alphal-antitrypsin deficiency.

Numai utilizatorii înregistrați pot traduce articole

We describe a rare case of systemic vasculitis associated with alpha1-antitrypsin (alpha1-AT) deficiency. Mutational analysis of the alpha1-AT gene in this patient revealed a homozygous alpha1-AT Mnichinan variant. Alpha1-AT possesses broad-spectrum inhibitory activity against many serine proteases,

New developments in the treatment of systemic vasculitis.

Although precise diagnosis of the systemic vasculitides can provide general prognostic information and help to guide initial therapy, recent studies on the long-term clinical course have revealed considerable variation in clinical severity. Therefore, anatomic distribution of involvement and speed

Mediation of endothelial cell damage by serine proteases, but not superoxide, released from antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibody-stimulated neutrophils.

Numai utilizatorii înregistrați pot traduce articole

OBJECTIVE To evaluate potential mediators of endothelial cell injury in systemic vasculitis associated with antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibodies (ANCAs), we investigated the factors controlling the neutrophil respiratory burst and endothelial release of von Willebrand factor (vWF) during

Alpha 1-antitrypsin genetic polymorphism in ANCA-positive systemic vasculitis.

Numai utilizatorii înregistrați pot traduce articole

Alpha 1-antitrypsin (alpha 1-AT) is the major inhibitor of proteinase 3 (PR3), the main target antigen of antineutrophil cytoplasm antibodies (ANCA) in Wegener's granulomatosis. alpha 1-AT is encoded by a polymorphic gene, with over 75 alleles, defining severely, medium and non-deficient protease

Distinct differences in autoantigen specificity of anti-neutrophil cytoplasm antibodies in systemic vasculitides and other inflammatory diseases.

Numai utilizatorii înregistrați pot traduce articole

BACKGROUND Anti-neutrophil cytoplasm antibodies in necrotizing vasculitides need to be distinguished from ANCAs in other inflammatory conditions to avoid clinical misinterpretation. OBJECTIVE To help clinicians and laboratory scientists recognize and utilize vasculitis-related ANCAs as an aid in

The role of myeloperoxidase in the pathogenesis of systemic vasculitis.

Numai utilizatorii înregistrați pot traduce articole

Wegener's granulomatosis, microscopic polyangiitis, Churg-Strauss syndrome and idiopathic pauci-immune necrotizing crescentic glomerulonephritis are strongly associated with the presence of anti-neutrophil cytoplasmic antibodies (ANCA). These ANCA-associated vasculitides can serologically be

Detection of autoantibodies against myeloid lysosomal enzymes: a useful adjunct to classification of patients with biopsy-proven necrotizing arteritis.

Numai utilizatorii înregistrați pot traduce articole

OBJECTIVE Assessment of the value of determination of antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibodies (ANCA) and its specificities for classification of patients with biopsy-proven necrotizing arteritis. METHODS The serum samples of 28 consecutive patients with biopsy-proven vasculitis involving medium-

Intestinal Wegener's granulomatosis in a patient with severe alpha-1-antitrypsin deficiency resulting from a unique combination of two deficiency alleles (PiZ and PiMProcida).

Alpha-1-antitripsyn neutralizes the tissue damaging effects of proteases. Alpha-1-antitripsyn deficiency manifests with necrotizing vasculitis. Wegener's granulomatosis is a systemic necrotizing vasculitis that uncommonly affects the gut. The molecular genetics of patients with Wegener's

Association of autoantibodies to myeloperoxidase with different forms of vasculitis.

Numai utilizatorii înregistrați pot traduce articole

Antineutrophil cytoplasmic autoantibodies with specificity for myeloperoxidase (MPO) were found in 53 patient sera that were routinely submitted for antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibody determination. Based on clinical and histologic criteria, 15 of these 53 patients were classified as having

Treatment of hepatitis C virus infection in patients with mixed cryoglobulinemic syndrome and cryoglobulinemic glomerulonephritis.

Numai utilizatorii înregistrați pot traduce articole

Cryoglobulinemia is a common extrahepatic manifestation of infection with hepatitis C virus (HCV). When signs and symptoms of systemic vasculitis or glomerulonephritis occur in the presence of circulating cryoglobulins, this syndrome is called "mixed cryoglobulinemia syndrome" (MCS). Historically,

Concomitant thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura and ANCA-associated vasculitis in an adolescent.

Numai utilizatorii înregistrați pot traduce articole

Thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura (TTP) rarely occurs with systemic vasculitis. A 17-year-old girl presented with non-bloody diarrhea, menorrhagia, and syncope. She had severe anemia (hemoglobin = 3.8 g/dl), thrombocytopenia (platelet = 7,000/mm(3)), and acute kidney injury (serum creatinine, Cr =
