Antiphospholipid antibodies and renal involvement.
Antiphospholipid antibodies are a heterogeneous group of autoantibodies associated with the hypercoagulable state affecting all vascular districts with thrombosis named antiphospholipid syndrome (APS). APS is an autoimmune disease with multifactorial etiology that includes cellular, molecular, genetic and pathogenic mechanisms. The APS clinical features are a combination of arterial and/or veno...
متن کاملNeurological involvement in antiphospholipid antibodies syndrome (APS).
Antiphospholipid antibodies (aPL) have been most strongly associated with a syndrome (APS) characterized by venous and/or arterial thrombosis, thrombocytopenia, recurrent fetal losses and a variety of non-thrombotic and thrombotic neurological disorders. Cerebral ischemia associated with aPL is the most common arterial thrombotic manifestation. Other neurological syndromes, such as cognitive dy...
متن کاملCardiac involvement in the antiphospholipid syndrome.
Antiphospholipid syndrome (APS) is a systemic autoimmune disease, associated with a hypercoagulable state and fetal loss and with other clinical manifestations including cardiac involvement. Cardiac manifestations of APS are valve abnormalities (valve thickening and vegetations), occlusive arterial disease (atherosclerosis and myocardial infarction), intracardiac emboli, ventricular dysfunction...
متن کاملAntiphospholipid Syndrome and Kidney Involvement: New Insights
Antiphospholipid syndrome is an autoimmune disorder characterized by vascular thromboses and pregnancy morbidity associated with antiphospholipid antibodies: lupus anticoagulant, IgG or IgM anticardiolipin or anti-beta 2-glycoprotein I. The kidney is one of the major target organs in antiphospholipid syndrome (APS). However, beyond the known involvement of the kidney in primary and associated A...
متن کامل"Black swan in the kidney": renal involvement in the antiphospholipid antibody syndrome.
The antiphosphospholipid antibody syndrome (APS) describes a clinical entity with recurrent thrombosis, fetal loss, thrombocytopenia in the presence of lupus anticoagulant and/or antibodies to cardiolipin. These antibodies may be associated with connective tissue diseases such as systemic lupus erythematosus (secondary APS) or be found in isolation (primary APS). Renal syndromes increasingly be...
