Dysregulation of autoantigen genes in ANCA-associated vasculitis involves alternative transcripts and new protein synthesis.
Proteinase 3 (PR3) and myeloperoxidase (MPO) are two major autoantigens in patients with vasculitis with ANCA. The genes encoding these autoantigens are abnormally expressed in peripheral granulocytes of patients with active ANCA-associated vasculitis. This study provides evidence that this transcri...
