Primary anti-phospholipid syndrome (PAPS) is an autoimmune condition defined by anti-phospholipid antibodies (aPL) and thrombotic or obstetric events. Some PAPS can evolve into systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) during follow-up. Few studies systematically examined lupus autoantibodies and their clinical significance in PAPS. The aim of our study is to analyze the clinical and laboratory correlations with lupus-related autoantibodies, detected by immunoprecipitation (IP), a technique not yet systematically applied to investigate autoantibodies in this condition.

Abstract

Primary anti-phospholipid syndrome (PAPS) is an autoimmune condition defined by anti-phospholipid antibodies (aPL) and thrombotic or obstetric events. Some PAPS can evolve into systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) during follow-up. Few studies systematically examined lupus autoantibodies and their clinical significance in PAPS. The aim of our study is to analyze the clinical and laboratory correlations with lupus-related autoantibodies, detected by immunoprecipitation (IP), a technique not yet systematically applied to investigate autoantibodies in this condition.
