A genetic defect in "acquired" agammaglobulinemia.
Phytohemagglutinin (PHA) has been shown to effect biochemical and morphologic changes in the small lymphocytes of normal human peripheral blood.1' 2 The percentage of morphologic transformation of small lymphocytes to blastlike cells on exposure to PHA is reduced in a variety of conditions associated with abnormalities of the lymphoid system, such as Hodgkin's disease, sarcoidosis, and chronic ...
متن کاملAntihelper T cell autoantibody in acquired agammaglobulinemia.
A patient with acquired agammaglobulinemia had an antihelper T cell factor that was identified as an immunoglobulin of the IgG class. The factor specifically bound to the TH2- T cell subset and, in the presence of complement, abolished the helper effect of normal T cells. The antihelper T cell antibody preceded by several years the appearance of suppressor TH2+Ia+ T cells, at which time the cli...
متن کاملAn acquired coagulation defect in a woman.
A prolonged clotting time is rare in women. Nine cases have been reported, and from Table I, which summarizes these and the present case, it will be seen that all except one occurred within a few months of childbirth. In all, the clinical story was surprisingly similar: all had deep ecchymoses, and most had epistaxis, haematuria, and often effusions into joints and melaena. One patient died of ...
متن کاملTraumatically acquired color vision defect.
A 24-year-old man acquired a color vision defect shortly after an accident in which he struck the back of his head. Results of the Farnsworth-Munsell 100-hue test showed that the patient had poor color discrimination in both eyes. His color matches on the Nagel anomaloscope suggested a red/green disturbance. Results from increment threshold testing demonstrated on absence of the blue mechanism....
متن کاملAcquired granular pool defect in stored platelets.
Platelets stored as concentrates (PC) for 72 h at 22 degrees C develop a functional defect. Alterations in adenine nucleotides of platelets have been shown to affect platelet function. Adenine nucleotide content of platelets was measured before and after storage and a decrease of 27.1 /+- 1.7% (mean /+- SE) in ATP and 39.1 /+- 2.6% in ADP were found in 34 PC stored with final volume of 50 ml. I...
