Annexin A2: biology and relevance to the antiphospholipid syndrome.

abstract：:Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) is an immune-mediated disease that is responsive to suppression or modulation of the immune system. Patients with SLE who experience persistent multiorgan dysfunction, despite standard doses of intravenous cyclophosphamide (Cy), represent a subset of patients at high risk of early de...
