Human insulin-specific immunoglobulin G antibody and hypoglycemic attacks after the injection of gold thioglucose.

Abstract:

:A 56-year-old woman with granulomas of gold thioglucose in her hips exhibited recurrent bouts of hypoglycemic attacks. The first attack occurred 2 years after the last injection of gold thioglucose, when large amounts of extractable insulin and human insulin-specific antibody were noted in her serum. Histological examination of the resected granulomas showed marked infiltration of lymphocytes, plasma cells, and macrophages containing yellowish-brown granules, which proved to be gold by electron microscopy using X-ray microanalysis. After resection of the granuloma, however, the frequency of the hypoglycemic attacks decreased remarkably as well as the levels of both extractable insulin and human insulin-specific antibody.
