Significance of anticardiolipin and anti-beta(2)-glycoprotein I antibodies in lupus nephritis.
OBJECTIVE To investigate whether anticardiolipin (aCL) and anti-beta(2)-glycoprotein I (anti-beta(2)GPI) antibodies are associated with lupus nephritis (group II patients), and whether there are differences in the prevalence of these two autoantibodies between group II patients and patients with non-nephritis SLE (group I) and primary antiphospholipid syndrome (PAPS) patients (group III). MET...
متن کاملAnticardiolipin Antibodies in Juvenile Rheumatoid Arthritis and Systemic Lupus Erythematosus
Background: Antiphospholipid antibody syndrome (APS) can either occur as a primary syndrome or associated with other autoimmune diseases such as systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). Anticardiolipin antibody (aCL) of IgG and/or IgM isotype in blood, measured by a standardized ELISA is the most acceptable laboratory criteria. APS IgG isotype, particularly IgG2 subclass is more strongly associated ...
متن کاملAssociation of anticardiolipin antibodies with intraglomerular thrombi and renal dysfunction in lupus nephritis.
We studied positivity for anti-cardiolipin antibody, intraglomerular capillary thrombi on renal biopsy, and the progression of renal disease in 51 patients (10 male and 41 female), mean age 37 years (range 17-65 years), with a diagnosis of systemic lupus erythematosis and clinically evident nephritis confirmed by renal biopsy. Serum creatinine, serum indicators of disease activity and biopsies ...
متن کاملLupus anticoagulants, anticardiolipin antibodies, and cerebral ischemia.
We studied 23 patients suffering cerebral ischemia who also had laboratory evidence of either a lupus anticoagulant (LA) or an abnormal anticardiolipin antibody (ACA). Four patients had lupus or a lupus-like illness, three had drug-induced lupus, and 16 had no overt evidence of collagen-vascular disease. Cerebral ischemic events were multiple in 71% of the patients; two patients presented with ...
متن کاملNephritogenic antibodies in lupus nephritis.
A critical discussion of data on the possible role of IgG3 cryoglobulins, cross-reactive anti-DNA antibodies and anti-DNA idiotypes in the pathogenesis of lupus nephritis is included. A further possibility involving cationic nuclear autoantigens is presented in detail. Histone was employed as a model antigen, representative of this group. Histones were shown to have high affinity for the rat GB...
