متن کاملImmunoglobulin G4 and related diseases.
i mmunoglobulins, produced by plasma cells, are the effector arm of the humoral immune system [1]. Each immunoglobulin consists of two identical heavy chains (α, β, γ, δ or ε – all encoded by chromosome 14) and two identical light chains (either κ or λ, encoded by chromosome 2 and 22, respectively) [2]. The immunoglobulins have constant (C) regions (similar within the same isotype) and variable...
متن کاملSerum Immunoglobulin G4 and Immunoglobulin G1 for Distinguishing Immunoglobulin G4-Associated Cholangitis From Primary Sclerosing Cholangitis
UNLABELLED The recent addition of immunoglobulin (Ig)G4-associated cholangitis (IAC), also called IgG4-related sclerosing cholangitis (IRSC), to the spectrum of chronic cholangiopathies has created the clinical need for reliable methods to discriminate between IAC and the more common cholestatic entities, primary (PSC) and secondary sclerosing cholangitis. The current American Association for t...
متن کاملUlcerative Colitis and Immunoglobulin G4

Infiltration of immunoglobulin G4 (IgG4)-positive plasma cells is sometimes detected in the colonic mucosa of AIP or UC patients. This study aimed to clarify the relation between UC and IgG4. METHODS Associations with UC were reviewed in 85 AIP patients. IgG4 immunostaining was performed on bio...
