Neutrophils and Platelets as Key Players in the Pathogenesis of ANCA-Associated Vasculitis and Potential Sources of Disease Activity Biomarkers
2025-04-24
Abstract excerpt
Anti-neutrophil cytoplasmic antibodies (ANCA)-associated vasculitis (AAV) is a heterogeneous group of small-vessel vasculitides characterized by the presence of antibodies binding to myeloperoxidase (MPO) and proteinase-3 (PR3), found in neutrophil granules. Apart from being the target of ANCA, neutrophils actively contribute to the vicious cycle of inflammation and vascular damage in AAV. On the other hand, plate...
