Purpose : Chronic idiopathic thrombocytopenic purpura(CITP) is an autoimmune disease caused by autoantibodies reacting to certain antigens, and platelet glycoprotein(GP) IIb/IIIa and GP Ib/IX complexes are thought to be some of those antigens. However, the clinical significance of anti-GP autoantibodies in CITP patients is unknown. In this study, we investigated the clinical correlation between the presence of circulating autoantibodies against... |
