Abstract
INTRODUCTION Double-positive patients (DPP) exhibiting anti-glomerular basement membrane (GBM) and anti-neutrophil cytoplasmic antibodies (ANCAs) belong to an entity that is newly and poorly described, mainly in short series. We aimed to better characterize the epidemiological features, clinical presentation and therapeutic outcomes of these patients through a systematic review. METHODS We performed a systematic review of English-, German-, Spanish- and French-written publications from February 1987 to March 2020 reporting cases of DPP using the following databases: PubMed, Scielo, ScienceDirect, Google Scholar, The Cochrane Library, Open Grey, The Grey Literature Report, Clinicaltrials.gov and International Clinical Trial Registry Platform of the World Health Organization. RESULTS In total, 538 DPP were identified from 90 articles. Their clinical presentations were often severe, and the majority exhibited acute kidney failure (91.8%) with a median initial serum creatinine level of 873 μmol/L; 50.7% had alveolar haemorrhage. Other manifestations were present in 30.3% of DPP, mainly ear, nose, throat and articular manifestations. ANCAs were predominantly directed against MPO (n = 377/523; 72.1%) compared to PR3 (n = 107/523; 20.5%), with rare cases of triple positivity (n = 15/538; 2.9%). Although most patients received initial immunosuppressive therapy (n = 285/317; 89.9%), the one-year overall, renal and relapse-free survival rates were 64.8%, 38.7% and 71.1%, respectively. CONCLUSION DPP are associated with the characteristics of two eponymous vasculitis types, responsible for a poor overall and renal prognosis. Thus, simultaneous testing of both antibodies and systematic renal biopsy should be recommended in every patient with rapidly progressive glomerulonephritis to recognize this difficult-to-treat and rare disease.

Abstract
Goodpasture disease (GD) is a rare autoimmune disorder characterized by the development of pathologic autoantibodies against both glomerular and alveolar basal membranes. Approximately one third of the patients with GD are also positive for anti-neutrophil cytoplasmic antibody (ANCA). In this case report, a 74-year-old woman was diagnosed as having myeloperoxidase (MPO)-ANCA-positive GD with severe aortic valve stenosis (AS). She underwent immunosuppressive therapy and plasmapheresis that led to GD remission. Whether a cardiac surgery affects a MPO-ANCA-positive GD in remission is unknown. We reported the outcomes after aortic valve replacement for severe AS in a patient with MPO-ANCA-positive GD.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW This review critically analyses the data implicating antibodies to lysosome associated membrane protein-2 (hLAMP-2) in ANCA-associated vasculitis (AAV). It addresses recent controversies over prevalence of anti-hLAMP-2 antibodies as well as their potential for diagnosis and monitoring disease activity. RECENT FINDINGS Anti-hLAMP-2 antibodies were first described in the 1990s and have become the focus of intense clinical interest in the past 4 years. This followed the demonstration of their very high prevalence in untreated patients presenting with AAV but absence when patients were in remission. The data also demonstrated molecular mimicry between hLAMP-2 and the bacterial protein FimH. The same group later confirmed the original findings and showed the anti-hLAMP-2 autoantibodies have different kinetics to those recognising myeloperoxidase and proteinase-3 and are less likely to be detectable when the disease is in remission. By contrast, a different group reported a lower prevalence of anti-hLAMP-2 antibodies in AAV and questioned their relevance to pathogenesis. Critical analysis of these studies suggests that the differences are largely attributable to selection criteria of the AAV patients studied and the assays used. SUMMARY Anti-hLAMP-2 antibodies are frequently found in AAV but attempts to define their consequences have been frustrated by lack of generally available assays for them.

Combined membranous nephropathy and crescentic glomerulonephritis with concurrent anti-glomerular basement membrane antibody and myeloperoxidase-specific anti-neutrophil cytoplasmic antibody. CEN Case Rep 2013; 2:107-111. [PMID: 28509234 DOI: 10.1007/s13730-012-0054-x] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/23/2012] [Accepted: 11/25/2012] [Indexed: 10/27/2022] Open
Abstract
We report a case of a 71-year-old man with rapidly progressive nephritic syndrome and dual positivity for anti-glomerular basement membrane antibody and myeloperoxidase-specific anti-neutrophil cytoplasmic antibody. Renal biopsy revealed crescentic, mainly cellular, glomerulonephritis with granulomatous lesions, and advanced membranous changes. Membranous nephropathy had apparently existed for an extended period before the development of crescentic glomerulonephritis. In some studies reporting the simultaneous occurrence of both diseases, membranous nephropathy might be followed by crescentic glomerulonephritis, presumably from a histological point of view. Although we cannot prove a causal relationship between the two diseases, we caution that precise observations, especially histological, are necessary in similar cases.

Pulmonary renal syndrome in a child with coexistence of anti-neutrophil cytoplasmic antibodies and anti-glomerular basement membrane disease: case report and literature review. BMC Nephrol 2013; 14:66.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Pulmonary renal syndrome (PRS), denoting the presence of diffuse alveolar hemorrhage and glomerulonephritis as manifestations of systemic autoimmune disease, is very rare in childhood. The coexistence of circulating anti-neutrophil cytoplasmic antibody (ANCA) and anti-glomerular basement membrane (GBM) disease in children affected by this syndrome is exceptional, with unfavorable outcome in five out of seven patients reported to date. We describe a child with PRS associated with both circulating anti-myeloperoxidase (anti-MPO) ANCA and anti-GBM disease on renal biopsy who was successfully treated with immunosuppressive therapy. CASE PRESENTATION A 10-year old girl presented with fever, fatigue, malaise, and pallor followed by hemoptysis and severe anemia. Diffuse alveolar hemorrhage was revealed on fiberoptic bronchoscopy. Renal findings consisted of microscopic hematuria, moderate proteinuria, and anti-GBM disease on renal biopsy. ANCA with anti-MPO specificity were present whereas anti-GBM antibodies were on borderline for positivity. Methyl-prednisolone pulses followed by prednisone led to cessation of hemoptysis, marked improvement of lung fuction, and normal finding on chest x-ray within 10 days. An immunosuppressive regimen was then given consisting of prednisone daily for 4 weeks with subsequent taper on alternate day, i.v. cyclophosphamide pulses monthly for 6 doses, followed by mycophenolate mofetil that resulted in normal lung function tests, hemoglobin concentration, and anti-MPO level within four subsequent weeks. During 10-months of follow-up she remained well, her blood pressure and renal function tests were normal, and proteinuria and hematuria gradually resolved. CONCLUSION We report a child with an exceptionally rare coexistence of circulating ANCA and anti-GBM disease manifesting as PRS in whom renal disease was not the prominent part of clinical presentation, contrary to other reported pediatric patients. A review of literature on disease with double positive antibodies is also presented. Evaluation of a patient with PRS should include testing for presence of different antibodies. An early diagnosis and rapid institution of aggressive immunosuppressive therapy can induce remission and preserve renal function. Renal prognosis depends on the extent of kidney injury at diagnosis and appropriate treatment.

Abstract
PURPOSE The aim of our study was the characterization of anti-cytoplasmic antibodies by home-made morphological and biochemical techniques. Indeed, indirect immunofluorescence (IIF) on HEp-2 cell line is not always exhaustive in relation to the complexity of the antigens involved. METHODS Nine serum samples with anti-cytoplasmic antibodies (2 anti-Golgi apparatus, 3 with diffuse pattern and 4 with lysosome/endosome-like pattern) were tested with fluorescent confocal microscopy, Western blot analysis and, when necessary, with electron microscopy technique. RESULTS Confirmation of the IIF staining pattern was performed in confocal microscopy by comparison with the respective antibody marker. The anti-endoplasmatic reticulum positivity was also confirmed by electron microscopy evaluation. Both anti-lysosome/endosome and anti-endoplasmatic reticulum positivity have been definitely identified by Western blot through clear reactivity with calreticulin and LC3B, respectively. CONCLUSIONS These results do not aim at representing a standard routine laboratory procedure. Electron microscopy evaluation cannot be proposed as a routine approach, but confocal microscopy technique may be offered in centralized reference laboratories. Newer technologies, especially multiplex immunoassay, can also lead to an easier identification of these autoantibodies, without recurring to a home-made immunoblotting. Only with a complete characterization we will be able to define the clinical relevance of anti-cytoplasmic antibodies, which are still considered as "esoteric" and not as "diagnostic" antibodies.
