Immunoglobulin G1 Antibodies Against Phosphorylcholine Are Associated With Protection in Systemic Lupus Erythematosus and Atherosclerosis: Potential Underlying Mechanisms

Objective Immunoglobulin M antibodies against phosphorylcholine (anti‐PCs) may be protective in atherosclerosis, cardiovascular disease (CVD), and systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). We study immunoglobulin G1 (IgG1) and immunoglobulin G2 (IgG2) anti‐PCs, with a focus on atherosclerosis and SLE. Met...
