...For the pathogenesis of thrombotic APS, the immune-complex formed by aCL or aβ2GP1 and their antigens, in particular LDL oxidized, would activatemonocytes to express tissue factor, to secrete inflammatory cytokines [11,27] and possibly contribute to the formation of atherosclerotic plaques on the vascular wall [30]....
