background : common variable immunodeficiency (cvid) is associated with a broad spectrum of symptoms related to infections, chronic lung diseases, autoimmune diseases, and tumors; however, solid tumors are rare complications of cvid and gastric cancer, specially, has been reported very rarely. case presentation : the present case report describes a 28 years old known case of cvid male, who was ...

Background: Primary antibody deficiency, the most common primary immunodeficiency disorder, represents a heterogeneous spectrum of conditions caused by a defect in any critical stage of B cell development and is characterized by impaired production of normal amounts of antigen-specific antibodies. Objective: This retrospective study aimed at description and analysis of demographic, clinical, im...

common variable immunodeficiency (cvid) is a heterogeneous heritable disease characterized by arrest in b cell differentiation. an association between cvid and two hla haplotypes, haplotype i (hla-a1, hla-b8, hla-dr3) and haplotype ii (hla-a29, hla-b44, hladr7)has been previously documented. in the present study, we have attempted to find an association between susceptibility to cvid and hla cl...

common variable immunodeficiency (cvid) is the most common symptomatic primary antibody deficiency, characterized by reduced serum immunoglobulins levels and increased susceptibility to recurrent pyogenic infections. in this study, we evaluated cd40 ligand expression on stimulated versus unstimulated t-helper lymphocytes of nine common variable immunodeficient patients in comparison with fiftee...

severe congenital neutropenia is one of primary immunodeficiency disorders that characterized by severe neutropenia and is associated with severe systemic bacterial infections from  early  infancy.  granulocyte  colony  stimulating  factor  (gcsf)  is  clinically  used  as  a treatment for congenital and acquired neutropenia. the aim of this study was evaluation of gcsf (pd- grastim) in treatme...

primary immunodeficiency diseases (pids) consist of a group of genetic disorders that predispose the patients to immune-mediated complications. the aim of this study was to assess the knowledge of iranian general practitioners and pediatricians about pids. a questionnaire consisting 52 closed questions on clinical symptoms, laboratory data,associated syndromes and management of pids patients wa...

primary immunodeficiency disorders are a heterogeneous group of genetic disorders, with different modes of inheritance, consisting of more than 100 different types. we constructed the dna banking of primary immunodeficiency disorders for the first time in iran. the dna of 31 immunodeficient patients and their families (total of 92 samples) were collected, as the first step for construction of d...

hyper ige syndrome (hies) is a rare primary immunodeficiency disease. most of hies cases are sporadic. hies type ad is caused by mutation in signal transducer and activator of transcription-3 (stat-3). a number of mosaicism hies has been reported that is associated with intermediate phenotype. autosomal recessive hies (ar-hies) is due to mutation in dock-8 or cytokine sis 8 and tyk2 or tyrosine...
