Pathogenesis of autoimmunity in common variable immunodeficiency
Common variable immunodeficiency (CVID) presents in up to 25% of patients with autoimmune (AI) manifestations. Given the frequency and early onset in some patients with CVID, AI dysregulation seems to be an integral part of the immunodeficiency. Antibody-mediated AI cytopenias, most often affecting erythrocytes and platelets make up over 50% of these patients. This seems to be distinct from mai...
متن کاملAutoimmunity and infection in common variable immunodeficiency (CVID).
Common variable immunodeficiency (CVID) is a heterogeneous group of diseases, characterized by primary hypogammaglobulinemia. B and T cell abnormalities have been described in CVID. Typical clinical features of CVID are recurrent airway infections; lymphoproliferative, autoinflammatory, or neoplastic disorders; and autoimmune diseases among which autoimmune thrombocytopenia (ITP) is the most co...
متن کاملPediatric Systemic Lupus Erythematosus (SLE) As an Onset of Common Variable Immunodeficiency (CVID): The Double Link between Immunodeficiency and Autoimmunity
Recurrent, unusual and complicated infections are the hallmark of immunodeficiency. Primary Immunodeficiency (PID) is caused by a genetic defect impairing the immune response. Common Variable Immunodeficiency (CVID) is classified as a primary immunodeficiency with prevalent antibody defect, manifesting with respiratory and gastrointestinal infections. However, CVID is characterized by an increa...
متن کاملCommon variable immunodeficiency.
We describe a patient with common variable immunodeficiency who three times presented an anaphylactic reaction after intravenous immunoglobulin administration. These reactions were attributed to the total absence of IgG 2, 3 and 4.
متن کاملCommon variable immunodeficiency.
Common variable immunodeficiency (CVID) is a form of severe antibody deficiency with an estimated prevalence of 1 in 25,000 to 1 in 100,000. The disorder apparently results from currently undefined immune deregulations resulting in failed B-cell differentiation with impaired secretion of immunoglobulins. A 5-year female presented with fever, cough and shortness of breath at rest. Past medical h...
