| الوصف: | Objective To assess markers of neutrophil activation such as calprotectin and N-formyl methionine (fMET) in anti-neutrophil cytoplasmic autoantibody-associated vasculitis (AAV) and large-vessel vasculitis (LVV). Methods Levels of fMET, and calprotectin, were measured in the plasma of healthy controls ( n =30) and patients with AAV (granulomatosis with polyangiitis (GPA, n =123), microscopic polyangiitis (MPA, n =61)), and LVV (Takayasu’s arteritis (TAK, n =58), giant cell arteritis (GCA, n =68)), at times of remission or flare. Disease activity was assessed by physician global assessment. In vitro neutrophil activation assays were performed in the presence or absence of formyl peptide receptor 1 (FPR1) inhibitor cyclosporine H. Results Levels of calprotectin, and fMET were elevated in patients with vasculitis as compared to healthy individuals. Levels of fMET correlated with markers of systemic inflammation: C-reactive protein ( r =0.82, p <0.0001), and erythrocyte sedimentation rate ( r =0.235, p <0.0001). The neutrophil activation marker, calprotectin was not associated with disease activity. Circulating levels of fMET were associated with neutrophil activation ( p <0.01) and were able to induce de novo neutrophil activation via FPR1-mediated signaling. Conclusion Circulating fMET appears to propagate neutrophil activation in AAV and LVV. Inhibition of fMET-mediated FPR1 signaling could be a novel therapeutic intervention for systemic vasculitides. |
