Monoclonal anticardiolipin autoantibodies established from the (new zealand white x bxsb)f₁ mouse model of antiphospholipid syndrome cross‐react with oxidized low‐density lipoprotein

Abstract

We confirmed that aCL derived from (NZW x BXSB)F1 mice can cross-react with ox-LDL. This result suggests that aCL, which is closely associated with lupus-associated thrombosis, may also play an important role in atherosclerotic complications in patients with systemic lupus erythematosus.
