- W2321810637 abstract "To determine the prevalence of autoimmune disease, autoantibody positivity, or both in Irish persons with hepatitis C, we surveyed 98 such patients (55 recipients of anti-D, 25 intravenous drug abusers, and 18 blood transfusion recipients). We studied them clinically and tested for anti-nuclear, anti-smooth muscle, and anti-mitochondrial, liver-kidney microsomal, thyroid microsomal, thyroid globulin, and gastric parietal antibodies; and also for rheumatoid factor. In the anti-D antibody group (all female), two patients reported generalized musculoskeletal symptoms but had no demonstrable physical signs. We did not find cryoglobulins in any patient. We detected thyroid microsomal antibodies in only 6 of 55 (10.9%) patients. (In two of these, thyroid globulin antibodies were also positive). These patients were all clinically euthyroid, but two had borderline low-normal thyroid function tests. Titers for anti-nuclear antibodies were weakly positive in 5 of 55 (9.1%) patients, and gastric parietal antibodies were positive in 5 of 55 (9.1%) patients. In particular, we noted no antibodies to liver-kidney microsome. Rheumatoid factor was detected in eight patients. Forty-seven of 55 patients were genotype 1b, and 8 of 55 were genotype 3. In the intravenous drug abusers (8 women, 17 men), we detected no autoantibodies. Seven of the 25 genotypes were tested; three were genotype 3 and four were genotype 1b. In the transfusion group (10 women, 8 men), we detected no autoantibodies apart from weak anti-nuclear antibody Titers (1:10), which we found three patients. Five of 10 genotypes tested were of genotype 3 and the other five were of genotype 1b. These findings suggest that in Irish patients with hepatitis C, neither genotype nor source (and dose) of inoculum contributes to the development of autoimmune disease. How hepatitis C virus is associated with autoimmune disease in other studies remains unknown. The answer may, at least in part, be found in genetic; HLA typing studies should provide useful information." @default.
