Anticardiolipin antibodies in uveitis

Current Eye Research, 1992
Anticardiolipin antibodies (ACA) have been described in association with thrombosis and several vascular diseases and may be involved in retinal vasculitis. To investigate this question we tested sera from 86 patients with posterior uveitis and 100 healthy controls for the presence of anticardiolipin antibodies. The antibody was present in 15 patients:

Heterogeneity of anticardiolipin antibodies defined by the anticardiolipin cofactor

The Journal of Immunology, 1992
Abstract Anticardiolipin antibodies (aCL) found in sera from patients with SLE react with cardiolipin (CL) in the presence of a 50-kDa serum cofactor. The cofactor, which was identified to be beta 2-glycoprotein I by sequencing the N-terminal amino acids, not only enhances CL binding by antibodies in SLE but also depresses it by ...

Prenatal Screening for Anticardiolipin Antibody

American Journal of Perinatology, 1990
Anticardiolipin antibodies, immunoglobulin G, and M (IgG, IgM) have been associated with recurrent abortion and with maternal death. This study tested whether anticardiolipin titers would be a useful prenatal screening test to determine high-risk pregnancies. Titers were obtained at the first clinic visit in 686 patients, mean gestation, 20 weeks.

Glomerulonephritis in a Patient With Anticardiolipin Antibody

American Journal of Kidney Diseases, 1990
THE LUPUS anticoagulant is associated with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE and predisposes affected patients to arterial and venous thromboses.1.2 The lupus anticoagulant is an autoantibody to phospholipid that may result in prolongation of the activated partial thromboplastin time (PTT).

Anticardiolipin antibody in vascular parkinsonism

Movement Disorders, 2002
AbstractVascular parkinsonism (VP) is characterized by predominantly lower body involvement with gait impairment and postural instability, often without tremor, and by relative levodopa unresponsiveness. Neuroimaging studies demonstrate multiple infarcts or ischemic changes in periventricular white matter.

Anticardiolipin antibodies in Sneddon's syndrome

Neurology, 1990
We studied 24 patients (18 women, 6 men), aged 29 to 54, with Sneddon's syndrome. The clinical picture of Sneddon's syndrome was characterized by cerebrovascular disorders, livedo reticularis, disturbance of peripheral circulation, arterial hypertension, cardiac pathology (ischemic heart disease, heart murmurs), complicated obstetric history in women ...

Anticardiolipin Antibodies In Hashimoto’S Disease

Endocrine Practice, 2001
To ascertain the presence and significance of anticardiolipin antibodies in patients with Hashimoto's disease.We studied 19 patients (15 women and 4 men; age range, 26 to 79 years) with Hashimoto's disease. IgA, IgG, and IgM anticardiolipin antibodies were measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay.Of the 19 study patients, 4 (21%) tested positive ...

Anticardiolipin Antibodies and Ocular Disease

Ocular Immunology and Inflammation, 2005
This paper reviews anticardiolipin antibodies and ocular disease. Its aim is to present the latest knowledge regarding the relationship between the two. It focuses mainly on ocular features and treatment, but also describes the epidemiology, main systemic features, immunology, and immunopathology of the antiphospholipid syndrome.
