Two types of autoantibodies and intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1) were measured in patients with vasculitis. There were 13 patients with systemic vasculitis, and 12 with cutaneous vasculitis. The measured antibodies included antiendothelial cell antibodies (AECA) and anti-cardiolipin (ACL) antibodies of three isotypes. Results showed that patients with systemic vasculitis had elevated levels of ICAM-1 and IgG isotype ACL antibodies. Higher levels of ICAM-1 and IgG isotype ACL antibody were found in patients with systemic vasculitis than in those with cutaneous vasculitis. Levels of ICAM-1 and IgG isotype ACL antibodies also decreased after disease activity subsided in patients with systemic vasculitis. Measurement of ICAM-1 and autoantibodies may be useful in evaluating the extent of involvement, and for following the disease course.
对血管炎患者检测了两种自身抗体和细胞间黏附分子-1(ICAM-1)。有13例系统性血管炎患者和12例皮肤血管炎患者。检测的抗体包括抗内皮细胞抗体(AECA)和三种同种型的抗心磷脂(ACL)抗体。结果显示,系统性血管炎患者的ICAM-1和IgG同种型ACL抗体水平升高。系统性血管炎患者的ICAM-1和IgG同种型ACL抗体水平高于皮肤血管炎患者。系统性血管炎患者病情活动消退后,ICAM-1和IgG同种型ACL抗体水平也降低。检测ICAM-1和自身抗体可能有助于评估受累程度及跟踪疾病进程。
