Antiphospholipid Syndrome (APS) Overview

APS is a rare systemic autoimmune disorder marked by the persistent presence of antiphospholipid antibodies (aPLs), which are produced by B-cells and contribute to recurrent arterial or venous thrombosis, pregnancy-related complications, and various non-thrombotic manifestations. APS may occur as a primary condition or develop secondary to other autoimmune diseases, particularly systemic lupus erythematosus. While aPLs were initially thought to target anionic phospholipids like cardiolipin and phosphatidylserine, research has shown that they actually recognize phospholipid-binding proteins such as B2-glycoprotein I (B2-GPI), prothrombin, and annexin. These antibodies interact with their target proteins in ways that activate endothelial cells, enhance pro-coagulant activity, and trigger inflammatory responses-mechanisms that collectively drive the thrombotic complications characteristic of APS.

Antiphospholipid Syndrome (APS) Diagnosis and Treatment Overview

Diagnosing APS requires both clinical and laboratory criteria. Clinically, it involves confirmed arterial, venous, or small-vessel thrombosis, or specific pregnancy complications such as recurrent miscarriages or premature births. Laboratory confirmation includes persistent presence (on two occasions, 12 weeks apart) of lupus anticoagulant, or moderate-to-high titers of IgG/IgM anticardiolipin or anti-B2GPI antibodies. Treatment involves a multidisciplinary approach with hematologists, rheumatologists, and obstetricians, focusing on thrombosis prevention, pregnancy management, and patient education. Regular monitoring and individualized risk assessment help tailor therapy, improve outcomes, and enhance quality of life for those living with APS.
