N2 - Abnormalities of the lipid profile partly explain the atherogenic tendency of systemic lupus erythematosus but the picture is unclear in thrombotic primary antiphospholipid syndrome (PAPS). Herein we compare the lipid profile, high-density lipoprotein (HDL), low-density lipoprotein (LDL), total cholesterol (CHO), apolipoprotein A (ApoA-I), apolipoprotein B (ApoB), tryglicerides (TRY)), anti-lipoprotein antibodies, beta-2-glycoprotein I complexed to oxidized low-density lipoprotein (oxLDL-β2GPI) and C-reactive protein (CRP) from thrombotic PAPS (n = 34), thrombotic patients with inherited thrombophilia (IT; n = 36), subjects persistently positive for antiphospholipid antibodies (aPL, n = 18) with no underlying autoimmune or non-autoimmune disorders and healthy controls (n = 28) and determined the reciprocal effects of anti-lipoprotein antibodies, the lipid profile, oxLDL-β2GPI and CRP. Average concentrations of HDL (p < 0.0001), LDL (p < 0.0001), CHO (p = 0.0002), ApoA-I (p = 0.002) were lower in PAPS whereas average TRY was higher (p = 0.01) than other groups. Moreover, the aPL and PAPS group showed higher levels of IgG anti-HDL (p = 0.01) and IgG anti-ApoA-I (p < 0.0001) whereas the PAPS group showed greater average oxLDL-β2GPI (p = 0.001) and CRP (p = 0.003). Within the PAPS group, IgG anti-HDL correlated negatively to HDL (p = 0.004) and was an independent predictor of oxLDL-β2GPI (p = 0.009). HDL and ApoA-I correlated negatively with CRP (p = 0.001 and p = 0.007, respectively). IgG anti-HDL may hamper the antioxidant and anti-inflammatory effect of HDL favoring low-grade inflammation and enhanced oxidation in thrombotic PAPS.
