[Antibodies against phospholipids in patients with normal pregnancy]
Abstract:
We investigated the serum levels of IgG and IgM anticardiolipin (ACL), anti-beta-2-glycoprotein I (B2GPI), anti-phosphatidyl serine (PS), anti-prothrombin(PT), anti-annexin V (AnV) and anti-ethanolamine (Eth) antibodies using an ELISA method (Orgentec, Germany) in 16 females with normal pregnancy in the I, II and Ill trimester. We observed the following changes: 1. Elevation of the IgG u IgMACL, IgG PS, IgM Pr antibodies in the II and decreasing in the Ill trimester. 2. Decreasing of IgG u IgM B2GPI, IgG u IgM AnV, IgG Pr, IgG u IgM Eth antibodies in the II trimester, maintainante of the levels or more decreasing in the Ill trimester. 3. Increasing of lgM PS in the II and more increasing in the Ill trimester. All of these changes have no significant values (p > 0,05). In 10/16 we found extreme values of different antibodies, but all of them had normal delivery.

Transcytosis of IgG
IgG molecules from a mother undergo transcytosis starting around 13 weeks of gestation. The amount of IgG transferred and entering the fetal blood circulation increases with...
Blood Studies for Cardiovascular System III: Serum Lipid Profile
Serum lipids are fats and fatty substances in the blood and are crucial for various bodily functions, including energy storage, cellular structure, and hormone production. Serum lipids consist of cholesterol, triglycerides, and phospholipids.
Cholesterol is a soft, fat-like substance found in all body cells. It is crucial for producing hormones, vitamin D, and substances that aid...
Development of Immunocompetence
The initial cells that migrate from the fetal thymus settle within the skin and epithelial tissues lining the mouth, digestive tract, and in females, the uterus and vagina. These cells, including skin-based dendritic cells, serve as antigen-presenting cells, playing a key role in T cell activation.
Subsequent T...
Gastritis-II: Pathophysiology
In acute gastritis, the gastric mucosa becomes swollen and red and undergoes superficial erosion. Superficial ulceration may lead to bleeding.
In chronic gastritis, persistent or repeated insults lead to chronic inflammatory changes and, eventually, thinning or atrophy of the gastric tissue.
Gastritis can stem from various causes, each...
