Abstract

Vasculitis in connective tissue diseases is not an uncommon complication. Vasculitis complicates both rheumatoid arthritis and systemic lupus erythematosis (SLE) in about 4% of cases. Cutaneous lesions, representing small-vessel involvement, are most common; however, widespread, necrotizing visceral medium-and large-vessel involvement, mimicking primary vasculitic syndromes, may also occur. Connective tissue disease-associated vasculitis is separated from primary vasculitis syndromes in classification schemes. Granulomatous large-vessel disease does not occur in connective tissue diseases, suggesting a different pathogenesis. In most disorders, the etiology of vascular inflammation in not completely understood, but basic pathogenic mechanisms can often be distinguished. The role of immune complexes in the inflammatory manifestations of SLE is recognized, and other pathogenic factors such as antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibodies, common in other vasculitides, are infrequent. A diverse spectrum of clinical features, due to inflammatory involvement of arterial and venous vessels of all sizes, characterize several connective tissue diseases including Behçet's disease and SLE. The recognition of disease manifestations due to vasculi...Continue Reading

Adhesion Molecules in Health and Disease

Cell adhesion molecules are a subset of cell adhesion proteins located on the cell surface involved in binding with other cells or with the extracellular matrix in the process called cell adhesion. In essence, cell adhesion molecules help cells stick to each other and to their surroundings. Cell adhesion is a crucial component in maintaining tissue structure and function.
