The specific cause for this disease is unknown, but genetic factors seem to play a role. |
-
About 95% of people who have ankylosing spondylitis also have a genetic marker known as human leukocyte antigen-B27 (HLA-B27).
-
About eight people in 100 among American Caucasians are born with the HLA-B27 gene. The gene is much less common among African Americans.
|
Genetic markers are protein molecules found on the surfaces of cells. The HLA markers enable the body's immune system to distinguish between "self" and "other." |
The disease starts with intermittent hip and/or lower back pain that is worse at night or after inactivity. Back pain begins in the sacroiliac joint (joint between the pelvis and the spine) and may progress to include the lumbosacral spine and the thoracic spine (chest portion of the spine). Pain may be eased by assuming a bent posture. Limited expansion of the chest occurs because of the involvement of the joints between the ribs. The symptoms may worsen, go into remission, or stop at any stage. |
Ankylosing spondylitis may be triggered by certain types of bacterial or viral infections that activate an immune response that does not shut off after the infection is healed. The immune system then attacks the body's own tissue. A disorder caused by the body's own immune system is called an autoimmune disease. |
With progressive disease, deterioration of bone and cartilage can lead to fusion in the spine or peripheral joints affecting mobility. It can be extremely painful and crippling. The heart, the lungs, and the eyes may also become affected. The disease most frequently begins between the ages of 20 and 40 but may begin before 10 years of age. When symptoms begin before the age of 17, the condition is called juvenile ankylosing spondylitis. Ankylosing spondylitis affects more males than females. |
Although ankylosing spondylitis primarily affects the mobility of the spine, it rarely affects the entire spine. Sometimes other areas of the body such as the eyes and or small joints of the hands and feet can be involved. |
