Evidence for Mitochondrial Dysfunction in Blood-derived Endothelial Colony Forming Cells Isolated from Patients with Antiphospholipid Syndrome
Background/Purpose: The endothelium is a major target of pathogenic antiphospholipid antibodies (aPL) found in patients with antiphospholipid syndrome (APS). It is well established that aPL…Abstract Number: 0673 • ACR Convergence 2022
Occurrence and Severity of Bleeding in Adults with Immunogenic Thrombocytopenic Purpura with or Without Antiphospholipid Autoantibodies
Background/Purpose: ITP is an autoimmune disease defined as an isolated platelet count. It may be asymptomatic or accompanied by varying degrees of bleeding. APS is…Abstract Number: 0689 • ACR Convergence 2022
Type I Interferon Stimulated Genes Identify Different Phenotypes of Antiphospholipid Syndrome Patients
Background/Purpose: At present, a limited number of evidencesis available on the specific role of Type I Interferons (IFN) activation in antiphospholipid antibodies (aPL) positive patients,…Abstract Number: 2271 • ACR Convergence 2022
Circulating Calprotectin: A Potential New Biomarker for “Non-Criteria” Clinical Manifestations of Antiphospholipid Syndrome
Background/Purpose: While thrombosis and pregnancy loss are the best-known features of APS, many patients also exhibit "non-criteria" manifestations such as thrombocytopenia and heart valve damage.…Abstract Number: 0674 • ACR Convergence 2022
Prevalence of Heparin Induced Thrombocytopenia in Hospitalized Patients with Antiphospholipid Syndrome or Systemic Lupus Erythematosus with Antiphospholipid Antibodies
Background/Purpose: Thrombosis and thrombocytopenia are defining characteristics of antiphospholipid syndrome (APS), but can also be seen in heparin-induced thrombocytopenia (HIT). Hospitalized patients with APS are…Abstract Number: 0690 • ACR Convergence 2022
The Physiological Ketone Body Beta-Hydroxybutyrate Potently Neutralizes APS-Associated NETosis
Background/Purpose: Malleable metabolic pathways guide both productive and pathological neutrophil functions, including neutrophil extracellular trap release (NETosis). NETosis plays an important role in APS pathophysiology.…Abstract Number: 0675 • ACR Convergence 2022
Clinical Characteristics and Factors Associated with Relapse and Mortality in Diffuse Alveolar Hemorrhage Among Patients with Antiphospholipid Syndrome: A Multi-Center Retrospective Cohort
Background/Purpose: Antiphospholipid syndrome (APS) is associated with diffuse alveolar hemorrhage (DAH). However, only case reports and small case series are available in the literature. We…Abstract Number: 0691 • ACR Convergence 2022
Structural Differences Exist in Beta-2-Glycoprotein I from APS Patients Compared to Healthy Controls
Background/Purpose: Beta-2-Glycoprotein I (B2GPI) is a serum protein of approximately 50kDa and is the main autoantigen of Antiphospholipid syndrome (APS). Antibodies to B2GPI (aB2GPI) are…Abstract Number: 0676 • ACR Convergence 2022
Presentation and Outcomes in Patients with Adrenal Hemorrhage Associated with Antiphospholipid Syndrome: A Cohort Study and Systematic Review of Literature
Background/Purpose: To describe the clinical characteristics, therapies, and outcomes of patients with antiphospholipid syndrome (APS) and adrenal hemorrhage (AH).Methods: We performed a multicenter retrospective cohort…Abstract Number: 0692 • ACR Convergence 2022
The Interplay Between Lipid Peroxidation and Neutrophil Extracellular Trap (NET) Formation in APS Pathogenesis
Background/Purpose: Lipid peroxidation is the result of disrupted redox homeostasis and functions as a key component in various cell death programs. Neutrophil extracellular trap (NET)…Abstract Number: 0677 • ACR Convergence 2022
Obstructive Sleep Apnea in Primary Antiphospholipid Syndrome Impacts Damage Accrual
Background/Purpose: Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) has been associated with an increased risk of thrombotic-related events, such as myocardial infarction and cerebrovascular diseases in the general…Abstract Number: 0693 • ACR Convergence 2022
Low Neutrophil Ectonucleotidase Activity Drives Neutrophil-Platelet Aggregation and Platelet Activation in Antiphospholipid Syndrome (APS)
Background/Purpose: By converting extracellular ATP into homeostatic adenosine, the ectonucleotidases CD39 (ATP to AMP) and CD73 (AMP to adenosine) dictate extracellular purinergic gradients and as…Abstract Number: 0082 • ACR Convergence 2021
Association of Current Cigarette Smoking and Obesity with Antiphospholipid Antibodies and Thrombosis in 1216 International Patients Evaluated for Suspected Antiphospholipid Syndrome (APS)
Background/Purpose: Few studies have evaluated the role of environmental factors in APS. While antiphospholipid antibodies (aPL) may be induced by environmental stiumuli, e.g., viruses, cardiovascular…Abstract Number: 0083 • ACR Convergence 2021
Cardiac Valve Surgery Outcomes in the Antiphospholipid Syndrome
Background/Purpose: Cardiac valve involvement in the APS is prevalent, necessitating valve surgery in about 5% of the patients. Data regarding valve surgery outcomes in APS…
