Key Points • In myeloperoxidase (MPO)-antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibody (ANCA)-positive interstitial lung disease (ILD), patients with unclassifiable vasculitis showed a better prognosis than ...

Long-term use of propylthiouracil (PTU) may precipitate antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibody (ANCA)-associated vasculitis (AAV) complicated by hemophagocytic activity, according to a case report ...

A dual - positive status for Proteinase 3 - Anti - Neutrophil Cytoplasmic Antibody (PR3 - ANCA) and Myeloperoxidase - Anti - Neutrophil Cytoplasmic Antibody (MPO-ANCA) was detected. Following a ...

Perinuclear antinuclear cytoplasmic antibody titres were 1:40 (reference range <1:20, ARUP Laboratories, Utah, USA), MPO antibody was positive at 44 AU/mL (reference range 0–19) and serine protease 3 ...

Researchers found that use of immunosuppressive medication was a strong protective factor, associated with a 60% reduction in ...

Mitochondrial and cytoplasmic ribosomes from Neurospora crassa differ in almost all their proteins. The proteins of both types of ribosomes are synthesized by cytoplasmic ribosomes.

The researchers have discovered that in obese patients and in mouse models, increased levels of the oxidative enzyme myeloperoxidase (MPO) are associated with poorer vascular function. In people ...

Long-term use of propylthiouracil (PTU) may precipitate antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibody (ANCA)-associated vasculitis (AAV ... Serologic testing showed elevated proteinase 3-ANCA (400.00 AU/mL) and ...

Background In hereditary myopathy with early respiratory failure (HMERF), cytoplasmic bodies (CBs) are often localised in subsarcolemmal regions, with necklace-like alignment (necklace CBs), in muscle ...

A significant percentage of patients with RA and ANCA positivity were also diagnosed with AAV, with GPA being the most common subtype.
