Beyond HNA-1: The Anti-HNA-3 Autoantibody as a Protagonist in Autoimmune Neutropenia.
Introduction: Autoimmune neutropenia (AIN), a common cause of chronic neutropenia, has been categorized as primary (pAIN) and secondary (sAIN). This study investigates the specificity of anti-HNA autoantibodies in both types.
Materials and methods: A prospective cohort study of 85 chronic neutropenia patients included those with detectable anti-HNA autoantibodies. Anti-HNA was assessed using granulocyte agglutination (GAT), granulocyte immunofluorescence (GIFT), and LABScreen Multi Kit (LSM). Molecular analysis was performed to assess HNA expression.
Results: Of 85 patients, 7 had pAIN and 8 had sAIN. All pAIN patients exhibited only anti-HNA-1, while anti-HNA-3 was found in 3/8 sAIN patients. All patients with anti-HNA-3 tested positive in LSM; one was positive in both GAT and GIFT.
Discussion: While anti-HNA-3 has been described exclusively as an alloantibody, this is the first report of anti-HNA-3 as an autoantibody in AIN.
Conclusion: Anti-HNA-3 autoantibody is associated only with sAIN, suggesting distinct mechanisms in pAIN and sAIN.
期刊介绍:
Immunology Letters provides a vehicle for the speedy publication of experimental papers, (mini)Reviews and Letters to the Editor addressing all aspects of molecular and cellular immunology. The essential criteria for publication will be clarity, experimental soundness and novelty. Results contradictory to current accepted thinking or ideas divergent from actual dogmas will be considered for publication provided that they are based on solid experimental findings.
Preference will be given to papers of immediate importance to other investigators, either by their experimental data, new ideas or new methodology. Scientific correspondence to the Editor-in-Chief related to the published papers may also be accepted provided that they are short and scientifically relevant to the papers mentioned, in order to provide a continuing forum for discussion.
