Abstract excerpt
Apolipoprotein H (apoH; also known as beta2-glycoprotein I), is an essential cofactor for the binding of certain antiphospholipid antibodies (APA) to anionic phospholipid. The gene coding for apoH is polymorphic, with the occurrence of several common alleles in the general population. This genetically determined variation can effect the binding of apoH to anionic phospholipids and consequently the production of...
