RESUMO

The role of inflammation in thrombotic complications of primary antiphospholipid syndrome (PAPS) is controversial. The aim of this study was to evaluate levels of inflammation and coagulation markers in patients with thrombotic PAPS (t-PAPS). Patients with t-PAPS and individuals with no history of thrombosis were enrolled. The association of t-PAPS with levels of tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α, C-reactive protein (hs-CRP), interferon (IFN)-α, interleukins (IL)-6, -8, factor VIII (FVIII), von Willebrand factor (VWF) and tissue factor (TF) was evaluated by regression models. The levels of these markers were also compared between controls and subgroups of t-PAPS patients with triple positivity, recently diagnosed thrombosis, recurrent thrombosis and venous thrombosis. Patients with t-PAPS (n = 101) had a 8.6-fold increased levels of TNF-α, 90% increased levels of hs-CRP, 80% increased levels of IL-6, 30% increased levels of FVIIIAg, 50% increased levels of VWF and 66% increased levels of TF as compared to controls (n = 131), and the differences did not change after adjustments for sex, age and cardiovascular risk factors. Inflammatory markers were elevated in t-PAPS regardless of the aPL profile, number of previous thrombosis or time elapsed since diagnosis. TNF-α and IL-8 levels were higher in t-PAPS patients with venous thrombosis, in comparison with those with arterial thrombosis and controls. Patients with t-PAPS presented with increased levels of inflammatory and coagulation markers, which suggests that t-PAPS is associated not only with hypercoagulability but also with a persistent inflammatory state.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Venous thromboembolism (VTE) develops via a multicellular process on the endothelial surface. Although widely recognized, the relationship between inflammation and thrombosis, this relationship has been mostly explored in clinical studies by measuring circulating levels of inflammatory cytokines. However, the role of inflammatory cells, such as neutrophils, in the pathogenesis of VTE is not clear in humans. AIMS: To evaluate the adhesive properties of neutrophils, erythrocytes and platelets in VTE patients and to correlate findings with inflammatory and hypercoagulability marker levels. METHODS: Study group consisted of twenty-nine VTE patients and controls matched according to age, gender and ethnic background. Adhesive properties of neutrophils, erythrocytes and platelets were determined using a static adhesion assay. Neutrophil adhesion molecules expressions were evaluated by flow cytometry. Inflammatory and hypercoagulability marker levels were evaluated by standard methods. Residual vein occlusion (RVO) was evaluated by Doppler ultrasound. RESULTS: No significant difference could be observed in platelet and erythrocyte adhesion between VTE patients and controls. Interestingly, VTE patients with high levels of D-dimer and RVO, demonstrated a significant increase in neutrophil adhesion, compared to controls and remaining patients. Inflammatory markers (IL-6, IL-8, TNF-α) were also significantly elevated in this subgroup, compared to other VTE patients. Adhesive properties of neutrophils correlated with IL-6 and D-dimer levels. Neutrophils adhesion molecules (CD11a, CD11b and CD18) were not altered in any of the groups. CONCLUSION: These findings not only support the hypothesis of an association between inflammation and hypercoagulability, but more importantly, highlight the role of neutrophils in this process.
