Autoimmune antiphospholipid antibodies and cryoglobulinemia.
In addition to their role in the thrombotic manifestations of the antiphospholipid syndrome (APS), autoimmune antiphospholipid (aPL) antibodies may also be responsible for direct injury to the blood vessel wall, although the mechanism is unclear. Cryoglobulinemia has been reported infrequently in patients with APS and is one potential means of blood vessel injury. The aim of the present study w...
متن کاملCharacterization of antiphospholipid antibodies in chronic hepatitis B infection
BACKGROUND Many infections are associated with antiphospholipid antibodies (aPLs). The purpose of this study was to investigate the prevalence, persistence, clinical significance, and characteristics of aPLs in hepatitis B virus (HBV)-infected patients. METHODS This study included 143 patients with HBV infection and 32 healthy individuals as controls. The presence of anticardiolipin antibodie...
متن کامل[Anti-GOR antibodies in type II mixed cryoglobulinemia associated with hepatitis C virus infection].
The frequent association of chronic hepatitic C virus (HCV) infection and type II mixed cryoglobulinemia is considered to be one of the possible signs of interaction between the virus and the immune system. This could also be the case for the appearance of anti-GOR antibodies in serum, as they react with both viral and host antigens. We studied a group of patients with chronic hepatitis C infec...
متن کاملCryoglobulinemia in patients with hepatitis C
Introduction: Cryoglobulinemia is a kind of immunoglobuline that form in various conditions. These imunoglobulines, precipitate in cold environment and restore to soluble state upon rewarming. Nowadays, strong association between cryoglobulines and hepatitis C has been proposed. Methods: This is a descriptive-analytic study in which we included all documented cases of hepatitis C infection wh...
متن کاملAnticardiolipin and Antibeta2glycoproteinI Antibodies in Patients with Hepatitis B and C Infections
Background: The clinical significance of antiphospholipid antibodies in patients with chronic hepatitis C virus (HCV) and some other viral infections is controversial. Objective: To study the prevalence of anticardiolipin antibody (ACLA) and antibeta2glycoproteinI antibody (antibeta2GPI antibody) in HCV and hepatitis B virus (HBV) infected patients and its association with liver clinical parame...
