C5a plays a central role in antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibody (ANCA)-mediated neutrophil recruitment and activation. A previous study showed that C5a played a crucial role in the regulation of high mobility group box 1 (HMGB1) release from human neutrophils. The current study further investigated the interaction between C5a and HMGB1 in ANCA-induced neutrophil activation. The effects of HMGB1 inhibitors on the translocation of ANCA antigens, ANCA-induced respiratory burst and degranulation of C5a-primed neutrophils were tested. We found that blocking HMGB1 decreased C5a-mediated translocation of ANCA antigens, as well as ANCA-induced respiratory burst and degranulation of C5a-primed neutrophils. Further study showed that supernatant of C5a-primed neutrophils, which contained HMGB1, also caused translocation of ANCA antigens of primary neutrophils, whereas blocking HMGB1 decreased the translocation. In conclusion, blocking HMGB1 may attenuate ANCA-induced activation of C5a-primed neutrophils. The interaction between HMGB1 and C5a might play an important role in ANCA-induced neutrophil activation.

Background: C5a is important for antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibody (ANCA)-mediated activation of neutrophils. The present study aimed to assess the role of macrophage migration inhibitory factor (MIF) in ANCA-mediated activation of C5a-primed neutrophils. The effects of MIF on ANCA-mediated neutrophil respiratory burst and degranulation were determined.

Anti-neutrophil cytoplasmic antibody (ANCA)-associated vasculitides (AAV), including granulomatosis with polyangiitis (GPA) and microscopic polyangiitis (MPA), are autoimmune conditions associated with small vessel inflammation. Earlier studies indicate that complement activation via the alternative pathway plays a major role in the pathogenesis. In this study we have investigated if ANCA-activation of neutrophils from AAV patients leads to activation of the alternative complement pathway.

As C5a-primed neutrophils play an important role in the development of AAV, we investigated whether C5a-induced neutrophil tissue factor (TF)-expressing microparticles (MPs) and neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs) might promote hypercoagulability in AAV.
Methods: TF-expressing MPs were measured by flow cytometry.

The current study further investigated the interaction between C5a and sphingosine-1-phosphate (S1P) in neutrophils for ANCA-mediated activation.
Methods: The plasma levels of S1P from 29 patients with ANCA-associated vasculitis (AAV) in active stage and in remission were tested by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA).
