Antiphospholipid Antibodies in Patients with Myasthenia Gravis [PDF]

open access: yes, 1994
We measured antiphospholipid antibodies in sera from 94 patients with myasthenia gravis (MG). We found lgG aCL in 14/94 (14.9 % )lgM aCL in 6/94 (6.4 %) and LA in 4/56 (7.1 %) patients with MG. As a whole 21 of 94 (22.3 % ) patients with MG had some aPL.

Placental malperfusion and angiogenesis‐related proteins are associated with small‐for‐gestational‐age in systemic lupus erythematosus

open access: yesJournal of Internal Medicine, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Although systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) pregnancy frequently results in small for gestational age (SGA) infants, the understanding of underlying mechanisms is limited. We aimed to identify specific histological patterns of placental injury in SGA in SLE and to explore whether an altered balance of angiogenesis‐related proteins ...

The BH1 idiotype defines a population of anticardiolipin antibodies closely associated with the antiphospholipid syndrome

open access: yes, 1999
Background: A human IgM monoclonal anticardiolipin antibody–BH1–has previously been described, which has characteristics typical of antiphospholipid antibodies in the serum of patients with antiphospholipid syndrome (APS).

Antiphospholipid antibodies in Brazilian hepatitis C virus carriers

open access: yesBrazilian Journal of Medical and Biological Research, 2008
Hepatitis C, a worldwide viral infection, is an important health problem in Brazil. The virus causes chronic infection, provoking B lymphocyte dysfunction, as represented by cryoglobulinemia, non-organ-specific autoantibody production, and non-Hodgkin's ...

Identification of Lupus Erythematosus Cells and Ragocytes in Peripheral Blood from a Dog with Systemic Lupus Erythematosus

open access: yesVeterinary Clinical Pathology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT A 3‐year‐old female‐intact German Shepherd presented for the evaluation of progressive shifting leg lameness, carpal swelling, and weight loss with a poor appetite since adoption about three months prior. Routine blood smear evaluation, lymph node, and synovial fluid cytologies all revealed rare neutrophils with cytoplasmic inclusions ...

The effect of platelet activation on the hypercoagulability induced by murine monoclonal antiphospholipid antibodies

open access: yesHaematologica, 2008
Background To identify the mechanisms of the hypercoagulability associated with antiphospholipid antibodies, we investigated antibody-mediated platelet activation and interference of antibodies with phospholipid-dependent reactions.Design and Methods We ...
