Somewhat surprising, PR3-ANCA galactosylation, sialylation, and fucosylation decreased in both relapsing and non-relapsing patients. It has been known for some30years now thatmanifest autoimmune disease is correlated with changes in the glycosylation of antibodies (Parekh et al., 1985), and the list of autoimmune diseases with alter-
