Clinical Features and Genetic Analysis of 20 Chinese Patients with X-Linked Hyper-IgM Syndrome
X-linked hyper-IgM syndrome (XHIGM) is one type of primary immunodeficiency diseases, resulting from defects in the CD40 ligand/CD40 signaling pathways. We retrospectively analyzed the clinical and molecular features of 20 Chinese patients diagnosed and followed up in hospitals affiliated to Shanghai Jiao Tong University School of Medicine from 1999 to 2013. The median onset age of these patien...
متن کاملClinical and genetic analysis of patients with X-linked hyper-IgM syndrome.
To the Editor : Hyper-immunoglobulin M (IgM) syndromes are characterized by the presence of recurrent infections, low levels of IgG and IgA, and normal to high levels of IgM. The X-linked hyper-IgM (X-HIGM) syndrome is the most frequently observed subtype of hyperIgM syndromes (65–70%) and results from defects in the CD40L gene, which encodes for the CD40 ligand (CD154) (1–3). In this study, a ...
متن کاملImmunological and genetic analysis of 65 patients with a clinical suspicion of X linked hyper-IgM.
BACKGROUND X linked hyper-IgM (XHIM) is a primary immunodeficiency caused by mutations in the tumour necrosis factor superfamily 5 gene, TNFSF5, also known as the CD40 ligand (CD40L) gene. Patients often present with recurrent infections, and confirmation of a diagnosis of XHIM enables appropriate therapeutic interventions, including replacement immunoglobulin, antibiotics, and bone marrow tran...
متن کاملMorbidity and Mortality of Iranian Patients with Hyper IgM Syndrome: a Clinical Analysis
Background: Defects in B cell class switch recombination (CSR) are a heterogeneous and yet very uncommon group of disorders which all have a genetic basis uniformly leading to hyper IgM (HIgM) syndrome. Due to the rare frequency of these conditions, a very small number of case series have been conducted on the affected patients. Objective: To shed some light on the morbidity and mortality regar...
متن کاملGenetic analysis and clinical features of X-linked retinoschisis in Chinese patients
Many mutations in the retinoschisis (RS1) gene have been identified, but there are limited clinical data relating to the different genotypes. This study investigated the genotype, clinical phenotype and therapies for X-linked juvenile retinoschisis (XLRS) patients in China to evaluate the effects of gene mutations and therapies on the prognosis of the disease. Thirty patients were recruited in ...
