Pathogenesis and pathology of anti-neutrophil cytoplasmic antibody(ANCA)-associated vasculitis
• AAV is characterized by necrotizing small vessel vasculitis with positive serum ANCA. • MPO/PR3-ANCA and neutrophils play central roles in AAV pathogenicity. • Dysregulated complement system primes neutrophils. • MPO-ANCA directly activates neutrophils to induce NETosis followed by releasing NETs....

Sumario: | • AAV is characterized by necrotizing small vessel vasculitis with positive serum ANCA. • MPO/PR3-ANCA and neutrophils play central roles in AAV pathogenicity. • Dysregulated complement system primes neutrophils. • MPO-ANCA directly activates neutrophils to induce NETosis followed by releasing NETs. • B cells, T cells, and dendritic cells also contribute to the pathogenicity of AAV. |
