Antlneutrophil cytoplasmic autoantibodies (ANCA) are antibodies that activate inflammatory cells (neutrophils) in the blood causing them to attack small blood vessels in many organs resulting in vascular inflammation (vasculitis). This inflammation often involved the small filtering units of the kidney (glomeruli) resulting in glomerulonephritis. The research in this project will study ANCA disease in experimental animals with the onal of imnrovinn treatment for this disease.
