The aim was to investigate whether a novel line immunoassay (LIA) differentiates between antiphospholipid syndrome (APS) and asymptomatic aPL+ carriers or patients with infectious diseases (infectious diseases controls (IDC)). Methods: Sixty-one patients with APS (56 primary, 22/56 with obstetric events only, and 5 secondary), 146 controls including 24 aPL+ asymptomatic carriers and 73 IDC were tested on a novel hydrophobic solid phase coated with cardiolipin (CL), phosphatic acid, phosphatidylcholine, phosphatidylethanolamine, phosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylinositol, phosphatidylserine, beta2-glycoprotein I (beta 2GPI), prothrombin, and annexin V. Samples were also tested by anti-CL and anti-beta 2GPI ELISAs and for lupus anticoagulant activity. Human monoclonal antibodies (humoAbs) against human beta 2GPI or PL alone were tested on the same LIA substrates in the absence or presence of human serum, purified human beta 2GPI or after CL-micelle absorption. Results: Comparison of LIA with the aPL-classification assays revealed good agreement for IgG/IgM a beta 2GPI and aCL. Anti-CL and anti-beta 2GPI IgG/IgM reactivity assessed by LIA was significantly higher in patients with APS versus healthy controls and IDCs, as detected by ELISA. IgG binding to CL and beta 2GPI in the LIA was significantly lower in aPL+ carriers and Venereal Disease Research Laboratory test (VDRL) + samples than in patients with APS. HumoAb against domain 1 recognized beta 2GPI bound to the LIA-matrix and in anionic phospholipid (PL) complexes. Absorption with CL micelles abolished the reactivity of a PL-specific humoAb but did not affect the binding of anti-beta 2GPI humoAbs. Conclusions: The LIA and ELISA have good agreement in detecting aPL in APS, but the LIA differentiates patients with APS from infectious patients and asymptomatic carriers, likely through the exposure of domain 1.}, language = {en} } @misc{RoggenbuckBorghiSommaetal.2016, author = {Roggenbuck, Dirk and Borghi, Maria Orietta and Somma, Valentina and B{\"u}ttner, Thomas and Schierack, Peter and Hanack, Katja and Grossi, Claudia and Bodio, Caterina and Macor, Paolo and von Landenberg, Philipp and Boccellato, Francesco and Mahler, Michael and Meroni, Pier Luigi}, title = {Antiphospholipid antibodies detected by line immunoassay differentiate among patients with antiphospholipid syndrome, with infections and asymptomatic carriers}, series = {Postprints der Universit{\"a}t Potsdam Mathematisch-Naturwissenschaftliche Reihe}, journal = {Postprints der Universit{\"a}t Potsdam Mathematisch-Naturwissenschaftliche Reihe}, number = {436}, issn = {1866-8372}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:kobv:517-opus4-407211}, pages = {14}, year = {2016}, abstract = {Background Antiphospholipid antibodies (aPL) can be detected in asymptomatic carriers and infectious patients.
