Antiphospholipid Antibody Testing
Antiphospholipid antibodies (aPL) are a family of autoantibodies targeting phospholipid-binding proteins and are associated with several clinical settings, and most notably define the antiphospholipid syndrome (APS). These antibodies can be identified using a variety of laboratory tests, which include both solid-phase immunological assays and ...

Mechanism of antiphospholipid antibody-mediated thrombosis in antiphospholipid syndrome. [PDF]
Antiphospholipid syndrome (APS) is an autoimmune disease characterized by the occurrence of thrombotic or obstetrical events in patients with persistent antiphospholipid antibodies (aPL). Thrombotic events, the primary pathological hallmarks and clinical
