| Abstract: | The objective of this study was to assess the clinical significance of
autoimmune anticardiolipin antibody that can react with cardiolipin only in
the presence of beta2-glycoprotein I (beta2-glycoprotein I- dependent
anticardiolipin antibody) in the pathogenesis of early recurrent abortion.
A total of 72 early recurrent spontaneous aborters and 175 normal healthy
women were analysed for the occurrence of beta2- glycoprotein I-dependent
anticardiolipin antibody in serum samples by an enzyme-linked immunosorbent
assay specific for the detection of beta2-glycoprotein I-dependent
anticardiolipin antibody. The incidence of beta2-glycoprotein I-dependent
anticardiolipin antibody in the early recurrent spontaneous aborters was
essentially the same as that of normal women. Thus, the beta2-glycoprotein
I-dependent anticardiolipin antibody seemed to have little, if any,
implication in the pathogenesis of early recurrent spontaneous abortion.
