Antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibodies-associated glomerulonephritis: From bench to bedside

Antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibodies (ANCA)-associated vasculitis (AAV) is a group of autoimmune disorders that predominantly affects small vessels. The onset of the disease is closely associated with ANCA. Renal involvement, also known as ANCA-associated glomerulonephritis (AGN), is one of the mos...
