Abstract
Autoantibodies against platelet glycoproteins (anti-GP) are found in the majority of patients with autoimmune thrombocytopenia (AITP) as well as in thrombocytopenia associated with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). Some of these patients may have anti-phospholipid antibodies (anti-PL). To evaluate the pathogenetic significance of anti-PL and anti-GP antibodies in AITP and SLE patients, we investigated anti-cardiolipin (anti-CL), anti-phosphatidylserine (anti-PS) and anti-GP antibodies (anti-GPIIb-IIIa and anti-GPIb-IX) in 71 patients with AITP and 3 thrombocytopenic patients with SLE. Anti-GP antibodies were detected in 52 (70%) patients. Fifty-six (73%) patients showed anti-PL antibodies. Seven patients (6 AITP, 1 SLE) with both anti-GPIIb-IIIa and IgG anti-PL antibodies were followed during treatment with corticosteroids. Antibodies were measured before treatment and at the time of platelet-peak. Anti-GPIIb-IIIa antibodies decreased in all or became undetectable in five. In contrast, IgG anti-PS and IgG anti-CL antibodies decreased only moderately or remained positive. Adsorption experiments, using gelfiltered platelets, erythrocyte (Ec)-inside-out-vesicles and purified GPIIb-IIIa, showed that anti-GP and anti-PL antibodies...Continue Reading
