Defective yeast opsonization and C2 deficiency in atopic patients.

Abstract:

:Twenty-seven per cent of atopic patients initially presenting with infantile eczema or hay fever were defective for yeast opsonization and 18% had low levels of C2; these deficiencies were mutually exclusive, suggesting that they are primary. Both defects were associated with each of four different atopic syndromes, some of which were related to certain HLA haplotypes.

  • Disorders of regulatory T cells in patients with selective IgA deficiency and its relationship to associated autoimmune phenomena.

    abstract::In vitro lymphocyte function of 13 patients with selective IgA deficiency was studied. IgG, IgA and IgM secretion by pokeweed mitogen-stimulated peripheral blood lymphocytes from normal donors and IgA deficient patients was measured by an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. Addition of concanavalin A or hydrocortisone ...
