Immune T-cells may damage tissue, cause relapse in PR3-associated AAV
Immune T-cells positive for the GPR56 receptor protein — a marker for cell-killing immune cells — may contribute to local tissue damage in ANCA-associated vasculitis (AAV) patients whose disease is associated with antibodies against the proteinase 3 (PR3) protein, a study showed. Notably, these cells were more likely to…
