Genetics GPA/MPA

➢ Associate better with ANCA subtype than clinical diagnosis

– PR3-ANCA:

• HLA DP, PRTN3 (encodes for PR3)

– MPO-ANCA:

• HLA DQ

– Both

• SERPINA1 encodes for alpha 1 anti-trypsin (PR3 inhibitor)

• PTPN22 T cell activation

Conclusions

➢ ANCA vasculitis is a Class II restricted autoimmune disease

– Genetics associate with ANCA serotype

– EGPA, difference between ANCA +/-

➢ T/B cell dependent, neutrophil driven inflammation

– Rituximab has been revolutionary

– High risk of immunodeficiency in AAV

➢ Convincing evidence of alternate complement pathway activity

– Novel therapeutic target

– Potential alternative to steroid

? Nature of barrier defects and microbial drive
