       ANCA vasculitis:
       --- Quote ---
       > ANCA vasculitis is an autoimmune disease affecting small blood
       vessels in the body. It is caused by autoantibodies called
       ANCAs, or [/size]A[/size]nti-[/size]N[/size]eutrophilic
       [/size]C[/size]ytoplasmic [/size]A[/size]utoantibodies. ANCAs
       target and attack a certain kind of white blood cells called
       neutrophils. They target a part of neutrophils called the
       cytoplasm (the inside of the cell.)
