Research lines Development of the European Registry on Obstetric Antiphospholipid Syndrome (EUROAPS/EUROMAP). The so-called obstetric antiphospholipid syndrome seems to have pathogenic, biologic, therapeutic, and evolution features somehow different from the ones observed in those patients who suffer from "classic" antiphospholipid syndrome. Although experience and scientific evidence seem to support this idea, there is a lack of information that allows us to suggest changes in the classification and/or therapeutic criteria. The European Forum on Antiphospholipid Antibody Syndrome has decided to carry on this project and it has chosen the Vall d'Hebron Hospital as the European Coordinating Centre. Many important Spanish and European hospitals will participate in this multicentric study. IP: Jaume Alijotas Reig Predictive kit to detect the possible establishment of late adverse effects related to bioimplants used in clinical practice. A high variability in the prevalence of adverse effects with an immunologic basis seems to be related with any implant used in clinical practice. We have managed to find a particular association of HLA haplotypes that increase the risk for developing these effects up to 600 times. We are nowadays working on setting up a safe and reliable biochip or kit which predicts this risk easily in a routine test.

IP: Jaume Alijotas Reig Proinflammatory cytokines TNF and IL-6 in cellular senescence. A HUVEC aging model. Cells that are chronically exposed to inflammatory signals are more prone to aging than those which are not exposed to such signals. Human vascular endothelial cell (HUVEC) primary cultures activated with TNF-alpha probably increase the expression of ICAM and VCAM, synthesize ROS, and express senescence markers. It is not known what the principal intracellular pathway is (although it is thought that STAT may play a role) and it is unknown if one or more proinflammatory cytokines are needed to activate NF-KB. We are trying to find out the role that IFN-alpha and/or IL-6 and IL-1B may have on the aging inflammatory phenomena and we aim at detecting the intracellular signal pathways (STAT). We are also working on the characterization of the genes involved in these abnormal biologic responses.
