Autoantibodies to hLAMP-2 in ANCA-Negative Pauci-Immune Focal Necrotizing GN

Abstract: Pauci-immune focal necrotizing GN (piFNGN) is usually associated with ANCAs that are thought to be pathogenic. However, 10%-15% of patients are ANCA negative and the cause of their injury is unknown. We previously reported a high frequency of autoantibodies to human lysosome-associated membrane protein-2 (hLAMP-2) in ANCA-associated piFNGN, and have now investigated whether the same is true in ANCA-negative patients. Of 11 patients, 8 (73%) had anti-hLAMP-2 antibodies detected by ELISA and confirmed by immunob… Show more

“…LAMP-2 has strong homology with FimH, an adhesin commonly found in gram-negative bacteria, suggesting that bacterial infection in a susceptible host may induce autoantibodies that result in pauci-immune crescentic glomerulonephritis (51). Presently, whether patients without ANCAs have antibodies to LAMP-2 is unclear (52). Second, cell-mediated immunity could lead to activation of neutrophils via interleukin-8 (IL-8) through IL-17 producing T helper cell lineage (53,54).…”

“…A subsequent report from the same group revealed the presence of anti-LAMP-2 autoantibodies in patients from Austria, the Netherlands and the United Kingdom [25]. The same group later published that 8 of 11 (73%) of patients with ANCA-negative pauci-immune focal necrotizing glomerulonephritis harbored anti-LAMP-2 autoantibodies [26]. In a conflicting report, Roth et al measured anti-LAMP-2 autoantibodies in 680 serum samples from two academic centers in the United States from patients with ANCA glomerulonephritis (n = 329), ANCA-negative glomerulonephritis (n = 104), patients with E. coli urinary tract infection (UTI, n = 104), disease controls (n = 19) and healthy volunteers (n = 124) [27].…”

“…Патогенетическое значение могут иметь антитела к лизосом-ассоциированному мембранному протеину 2 (lysosome-associated membrane glycoprotein 2 -LAMP2, ЛАМП2), которые обнаруживают у 73-95% больных с ак-тивным нелеченым АНЦА-ассоциированным ГН [61][62][63]. ЛАМП2 является одним из важнейших гликопротеинов лизосомальной мембраны и входит в состав нейтрофиль-ных внеклеточных ловушек [64].…”

“…Вместе с тем сведения о значении антител к ЛАМП2 при рauci-иммунном ГН противоречивы [63,[65][66][67], что может объясняться неоднородностью групп пациентов. Так, уже через месяц от начала терапии результаты опреде-ления антител к ЛАМП2 становились отрицательными у 36 из 37 больных АНЦА-СВ [65], а в исследовании, не вы-явившем различий с контрольной группой в частоте гипер-продукции антител к ЛАМП2, доля случаев дебюта АНЦА-ГН не превышала 15% [66].…”
