Anti-cardiolipin and anti-phosphatidylglycerol antibodies prepared against bacterial phospholipids.
Anti-phosphatidylglycerol and anti-cardiolipin antisera were prepared in rabbits by using phospholipids purified from Micrococcus lysodeikticus. Anti-phosphatidylglycerol antibodies were found in antisera when either phosphatidylglycerol or cardiolipin were used as immunogens, but adsorption studies indicated they were not similar. Antibodies which reacted with phosphatidylinositol and phosphat...
متن کاملAntibodies against Pentraxins and Lupus Nephritis Activity
Impaired apoptosis and dysfunction of the immune cells are considered to be the most important pathogenic mechanisms of systemic lupus erythematosus. Pentraxins, which are natural opsonins, are directly involved in the removal of cellular material by binding to different antigens and initiating and enhancing phagocytosis of damaged cells. Therefore the deficiency of pentraxins is a crucial risk...
متن کاملAntibodies against oxidized LDL in infants.
To the Editor: We conducted two studies of serum antibodies against oxidized LDL (IgoxLDL) in mothers and their infants during the past 2 years. We used an ELISA (oLAb; Eli-Tec Labor-reagenzien GmbH) based on the use of Cu 2ϩ-oxidized LDL particles bound to the surface of microtiter plate wells and an anti-human IgG-peroxidase conjugate. In the first study of mothers and their infants at birth ...
متن کاملInterference in laboratory tests
Interference in clinical laboratory testing can create discrepancies in test results which can lead to patient harm. In clinical chemistry, interference is defined as a cause of medically significant difference in the measurand test result due to another component or property of the sample. Interference by endogenous and exogenous substances with assays for clinical analytes is a common prob...
متن کاملArterial disease in lupus and secondary antiphospholipid syndrome: association with anti-beta2-glycoprotein I antibodies but not with antibodies against oxidized low-density lipoprotein.
The prevalence and clinical significance of antibodies against beta2-glycoprotein I (anti-beta2GPI) and antibodies against oxidized low-density lipoprotein (anti-ox-LDL) were evaluated as potential indicators of arterial disease in patients with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) and SLE with secondary antiphospholipid syndrome (APS). IgG anti-beta2GPI and IgG anti-ox-LDL were measured by enzym...
