A member asked:
What autoantibody is seen the most in antiphospholipid syndrome? for example..perhaps anticardiolipin is seen more often than the others...?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
APS : The antibodies seen antiphospholipid syndrome are as follows: igg and igm anticardiolipin antibodies; lupus anticoagulant; igg and igm anti-ß2-glycoprotein i antibodies. Depending on the clinical presentation, 2 of these antibodies should be positive and the first 2 mentioned are usually measured with the third antibody measured if only one of the 1st 2 is positive.
