Abstract

Objective. To investigate the ability of human anti‐β 2‐glycoprotein I (anti‐β 2 GPI) antibodies to recognize the cofactor adherent on endothelial cells (EC) and to modulate endothelial functions. Methods. Six human affinity‐purified polyclonal anti‐β 2 GPI IgG and 2 IgM monoclonal antibodies (MAb) were obtained from patients with the antiphos‐pholipid syndrome. The antibodies were tested for their ability to 1) bind to endothelial monolayers through the adherent β 2 GPI and 2) modulate endothelial adhesion molecule expression and interleukin‐6 (IL‐6) and 6‐keto‐prostaglandin F 1α (6‐keto‐PGF 1α) secretion. Results. The affinity‐purified IgG and the MAb with anti‐β 2 GPI activity, but not the respective controls, displayed EC binding, which declined on cells incubated in serum‐free medium and was restored in a dose‐dependent manner by exogenous human β 2 GPI. After EC binding, both polyclonal and monoclonal antibodies up‐regulated adhesion molecule expression. Anti‐β 2 GPI MAb also significantly increased IL‐6 and 6‐keto‐PGF 1α secretion. Conclusion. These findings support the hypothesis that anti‐β 2 GPI antibodies bind and activate EC through the adherent cofactor β 2 GPI, likely leading to a procoagulant state.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
