Value of IgA anticardiolipin and anti-beta2-glycoprotein I antibody testing in patients with pregnancy morbidity.
OBJECTIVE To study the prevalence of IgA antiphospholipid antibodies, particularly anticardiolipin antibodies (aCL) and anti-beta(2)-glycoprotein I (abeta(2)GPI), in a cohort of patients with pregnancy morbidity. PATIENTS AND METHODS Serum samples from four groups of patients were studied by an in house enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). Group I: 28 patients with primary antiphospholi...
متن کاملAnticardiolipin and anti-beta2-glycoprotein I antibodies in Behcet's disease.
To investigate prevalence of anticardiolipin antibodies (aCL) in patients with Behcet's disease (BD) and to determine whether they are related to anti-beta2-glycoprotein I antibodies (aGPI), we measured aCL and aGPI in 47 patients of BD and 14 patients of systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). The levels of aCL and aGPI were determined by conventional enzyme immunoassay for both IgG and IgM classe...
متن کاملAnti-beta2 glycoprotein I and anticardiolipin antibodies in leptospirosis, syphilis and Kala-azar.
OBJECTIVE Reports have shown that anticardiolipin (aCL) antibodies present in patients with autoimmune diseases are dependent on the cofactor,beta2 glycoprotein I (beta2 GPI), as opposed to aCL antibodies seen in infectious diseases such as syphilis, HIV hepatitis C, etc. The assay for anti-beta2GPI antibodies has been reported to be more specific for antiphospholipid syndrome (APS). However, t...
متن کاملInteraction of giant phospholipid vesicles containing cardiolipin and cholesterol with beta2-glycoprotein-I and anti-beta2-glycoprotein-I antibodies.
Antiphospholipid syndrome is characterized with thrombotic events and/or pregnancy morbidity and antiphospholipid antibodies (aPL). The most common antigen for aPL is beta2-glycoprotein-I (beta(2)GPI), a plasma protein binding to negatively charged phospholipids. The influence of aPL on coagulation is not well understood. Giant phospholipid vesicles (GPVs) are a convenient in vitro system for s...
متن کاملAssociation between Anti-IgA Antibody and Development of Adverse Reactions in Immunodeficient Patients Under Immunoglobulin Therapy
Background: Mild to severe post-transfusion adverse reactions have been reported in a proportion of immunodeficient patients receiving intravenous immunoglobulin (IVIg). Anti-IgA antibody has been proposed to be associated with development of such reactions. Objective: To assess the association between anti-IgA levels of different isotypes and adverse reactions induced in immunodeficient patien...
