Anti‐Beta‐2 Glycoprotein I Antibodies Affect Bcl‐2 and Bax Trophoblast Expression without Evidence of Apoptosis
1 Jun 2006
Abstract excerpt
Antiphospholipid antibodies (aPLs) reacting with beta-2 glycoprotein I (beta2GPI) have been associated with recurrent fetal loss and pregnancy complications. The aim of the study was to investigate whether aPLs with anti-beta2GPI specificity induce apoptosis of human trophoblasts in vitro. To this end, human anti-beta2GPI monoclonal IgM derived from a patient with antiphospholipid syndrome and a human irrelevant...
