Anti-Beta-2 Glycoprotein (A, M, G) Antibodies. Prices, Reviews, Ratings
This blood plasma protein has anticoagulant activity, preventing thrombus formation. Antibodies to this substance are present in 80% of people with antiphospholipid syndrome (APS), a condition disrupting blood clotting, increasing thrombosis risk. It may cause stroke, transient ischemic attacks, and heighten miscarriage, preeclampsia, and spontaneous abortion risks. Concurrent testing for lupus anticoagulant and anti-cardiolipin antibodies is recommended.
