Annexins in Antiphospholipid Syndrome

Conclusions

In conclusion, annexin A5 is a potent anticoagulant protein that forms an antithrombotic shield over anionic phospholipids containing bilayers. Autoantibodies may interfere with this shielding function via high affinity antibodies that recognize phospholipid binding proteins that are capable of interfering with the assembly of the annexin A5 shield on phospholipid surfaces or via direct recognition of annexin A5 functional epitopes by autoantibodies. Antibody mediated interference with the integrity of the two-dimensional annexin A5 crystal shield may be a mechanism for thrombosis and for pregnancy complications, including recurrent spontaneous pregnancy losses, in APS.
