Normal human peripheral blood lymphocytes were separated on discontinuous gradients of 17-35% bovine serum albumin (BSA) into nine fractions. Three subpopulations of lymphocytes were obtained. One occupies the top third of the gradient (fractions 1-3, 17-23% BSA) and is rich in cells characterized
BACKGROUND
Serum immunoglobulin dynamics have not been studied in racing sled dogs, despite hypoglobulinemia having been reported during racing events.
OBJECTIVE
Hypoglobulinemia in racing sled dogs is associated with decreases in serum IgA, IgE, IgG, and IgM concentrations during prolonged
When patients with hypogammaglobulinemia are encountered, a vigorous search should be undertaken for secondary treatable causes. Here we describe the first case of a patient with severe asymptomatic hypogammaglobulinemia where the underlying cause was undiagnosed celiac disease. A strict gluten free
Primary intestinal lymphangiectasia is an unusual cause of protein losing enteropathy due to either congenital malformation or obstruction of lymphatics of intestine. The disease can affect all or only a small part of the small intestine. Peripheral lymphedema may be associated. The diagnosis is
BACKGROUND
We aimed to determine the effects of treatment with intravenous immunoglobulin on bacterial infections in patients with hypogammaglobulinemia (HGG) after lung transplantation.
METHODS
We performed a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled two-period crossover trial of immune globulin
We assessed the immediate effect of intravenous immunoglobulins (IVIG) on the biochemical, immunological and hematological profiles in patients with hypogammaglobulinemia. Over a period of three months, patients with antibody deficiencies, who had been established on stable IVIG treatment as
The population of B lymphocytes was assessed in the blood of 16 patients with agammaglobulinemia using immunofluorescence and EAC1423 reactivity as B-cell markers. Lymphocytes were fractionated on gradients of bovine serum albumin which are capable of separating lymphocytes into B-cell-rich and
The clinical and immunological data of 5 patients with transient h hypogammaglobulinemia of infancy (THI) are presented and compared to published data. In THI, there is distinction between patients who can mount a specific immune response, by producing specific antibodies to bovine serum albumin,
Induction of agammaglobulinemia in Japanese quails was attempted by various procedures of bursectomy (BX) including hormonal BX (H-BX) with testosterone, surgical BX (S-BX), chemical BX (C-BX) with cyclophosphamide and irradiation with gamma-ray. Immunosuppressive effect of BX was evaluated by
BACKGROUND
We reported on six infants between 5 and 11 months old, with transient hypogammaglobulinemia of infancy and severe refractory atopic dermatitis, who were treated with open-label immunoglobulin (Ig) after conventional therapy failed. All six infants had an IgG level of <225 mg/dL, elevated
A case of adult common variable hypogammaglobulinemia with nodular lymphoid hyperplasia characterized by malabsorption and enteric protein loss, probably due to bacterial overgrowth, is reported. This clinical condition is of particular interest because of the unusual pathology and the lack of an
Primary intestinal lymphangiectasia (PIL), also known as Waldmann's disease, is an exudative enteropathy resulting from morphologic abnormalities in the intestinal lymphatics. In this article, we describe a 12-year-old boy with PIL that led to protein-losing enteropathy characterized by diarrhea,
OBJECTIVE
To study the clinical and laboratory characteristics of cases with warts, hypogammaglobulinemia, infections and myelokathexis (WHIM) syndrome.
METHODS
An 11-year-old boy was diagnosed as WHIM syndrome and CXCR4 gene mutation analysis was performed.
RESULTS
Since 3 years of age, the patient
