137 Hypogammaglobulinemia in a Boy: Consider Also X-linked Lymphoproliferative Disease

immunohistochemistry.Human turbinates were obtained after turbinectomy from 6 patients with nasal obstruction refractory to medical therapy. Total RNA was isolated from human nasal mucosa, and CysLT2 receptor mRNA was detected in these tissues by using reverse transcriptase-PCR analysis. To identify the cells expressing CysLT2 receptor protein, double immunostaining was performed using anti-Cys...

Chronic Recurrent Multifocal Osteomyelitis in a 9-year-old Boy

  Chronic recurrent multifocal osteomyelitis (CRMO) is a rare aseptic, auto-inflammatory bone disorder. CRMO presents with bone pain with or without fever. The diagnosis of CRMO is a diagnosis of exclusion and should be included in the differential diagnosis of chronic inflammatory bone lesions in children.

Leukocytic function in hypogammaglobulinemia.

The phagocytic, bactericidal, and metabolic capabilities of circulating blood leukocytes from three adults (two males, one female) with hypogammaglobulinemia and recurrent pneumonia, chronic sinusitis, and intestinal giardiasis were studied. These functions were found to be normal when leukocytes from the patients were incubated in media containing normal human serum. Phagocytosis of Staphyloco...
