Elevated plasma level of soluble triggering receptor expressed on myeloid cells-1 is associated with inflammation activity and is a potential biomarker of thrombosis in primary antiphospholipid syndrome

摘要

BackgroundSoluble triggering receptor expressed on myeloid cells-1 (sTREM-1) is an innate-immune receptor found in blood. Its presence reflects innate immune cell activation. We sought to investigate plasma sTREM-1 levels in patients with primary antiphospholipid syndrome (PAPS).
