Age related IgG subclass concentrations in asthma.
The prevalence of IgG subclass deficiency in asthma is still controversial. Earlier studies often included patients receiving treatment with systemic steroids which can induce hypogammaglobulinaemia. Concentrations of IgG subclasses were studies in 200 children (aged 2-17 years) with asthma (mean asthma severity score (ASS) 2, range 1-4) who had not received systemic steroids for at least six w...
متن کاملIgG subclass deficiency in asthma.
Total immunoglobulin G (IgG) and subclasses were measured in serum samples from 82 children with chronic asthma, aged 1.5 to 6.3 years, and 76 controls. Concentrations of IgG1, IgG2, IgG3, and total IgG were significantly lower in asthmatic children aged 1 to 5, and IgG2 concentrations were also significantly lower in asthmatic children over 5 years of age. Twenty eight asthmatic children had a...
متن کاملSerum immunoglobulin (IgG, IgM, IgA) and IgG subclass concentrations in healthy children: a study using nephelometric technique.
Immunoglobulin (Ig) G, IgM, IgA and IgG subclass (IgG1, IgG2, IgG3, IgG4) concentrations were determined in more than 500 healthy Turkish children using nephelometric technique. These parameters were thought to be highly varied for different ethnic groups because of environmental and genetic factors. Methodology used in previous studies has been reported to affect age-related normal values. Ser...
متن کاملVariation of serum IgG subclass concentrations with disease activity in juvenile chronic arthritis.
Nineteen patients with juvenile chronic arthritis were followed up and serum IgG subclass concentrations measured at different stages of disease activity. Patients were divided into three groups according to clinical activity of the disease: active disease, partial remission, and remission. The results were compared with normal values obtained in 448 healthy children aged 6 months to 18 years w...
متن کاملEffects of Immunoglobulin Replacement on Asthma Exacerbation in Adult Asthmatics with IgG Subclass Deficiency
PURPOSE Recurrent respiratory tract infection is a common manifestation of primary immunodeficiency disease, and respiratory viruses or bacteria are important triggers of asthma exacerbations. Asthma often coexists with humoral immunodeficiency in adults, and some asthmatics with immunoglobulin (Ig) G subclass deficiency (IgGSCD) suffer from recurrent exacerbations. Although some studies sugges...
