Overview
The etiology of eosinophilic granulomatosis with polyangiitis is not known. Various allergens, infections, vaccinations and drugs may act as a triggering agents, and are responsible for developing disease through an allergic or autoimmune response. Genetics may also play a role and HLA -DRB4 and IL-10 gene polymorphisms are associated with the development of eosinophilic granulomatosis with polyangiitis.
Causes
Life-threatening Causes
- Life-threatening causes include conditions which may result in death or permanent disability within 24 hours if left untreated. There are no life-threatening causes of eosinophilic granulomatosis with polyangiitis, however complications resulting from untreated eosinophilic granulomatosis with polyangiitis are common.
Causes
- The causes for eosinophilic granulomatosis with polyangiitis are not known.[1][2]
- Environmental agents and drugs may be responsibe for development of eosinophilic granulomatosis with polyangiitis through an allergic or autoimmune response.
- Allergens
- Infections
- Vaccinations (eg, influenza)
- Drugs:[3][4][5]
- Leukotriene receptor antagonists/ leukotriene modifying agents (eg, montelukast, zafirlukast)
- Anti IgE antibodies (eg, omalizumab)
- Mesalazine
- Propylthiouracil
- Methimazole
- Exposure to silica
- Cocaine
Genetic Causes
- Eosinophilic granulomatosis with polyangiitis is associated with HLA-DRB1*04 and *07 and with HLA - DRB4.[6]
- Eosinophilic granulomatosis with polyangiitis is also associated with polymorphisms ivolving single nucleotides of interleukin -10 gene.[7]
