This means the immune system, which usually protects the body from infection and illness, attacks healthy tissue by mistake. In ACS, the immune system produces abnormal antibodies called anticardiolipin antibodies. These target proteins are attached to fat molecules (phospholipids), which makes the blood more likely to clot. It&#8217;s not known what causes the immune system to produce abnormal antibodies. As with other autoimmune conditions, genetic, hormonal, and environmental factors are thought to play a part in it.<\/p> <\/div> <div class=\"schema-faq-section\" id=\"faq-question-1665217492477\"><strong class=\"schema-faq-question\"><strong>How is ACS treated?<\/strong><\/strong> <p class=\"schema-faq-answer\">Anticardiolipin syndrome is mostly treated with the help of anticoagulants like warfarin, blood thinners like low-dose aspirin, and steroids.<br\/><em style=\"user-select: auto;\">Disclaimer- This is solely for information and not a substitute for medical advice.
