Endothelium as a target for antiphospholipid antibodies.

Abstract excerpt

Several, and not necessarily alternative, pathogenic mechanisms have been suggested to sustain the thrombophilic diathesis of the anti-phospholipid syndrome. Among them, interference of anti-phospholipid antibodies with cell acting in the coagulation cascade likely plays a major role. Anti-phospholipid antibodies have been shown to react with endothelial cells mainly by reacting with beta 2 glycoprotein I...
