neutropenia associated with x-linked agammaglobulinemia
x-linked agammaglobulinemia (xla) is a hereditary immunodeficiency, characterized by an early onset of recurrent bacterial infections, hypogammaglobulinemia and markedly reduced b lymphocytes number. in order to determine the association of neutropenia among iranian patients with xla, hospital records of 30 patients with confirmed xla in children medical center hospital, were reviewed. eight ou...
متن کاملX linked agammaglobulinaemia with a 'leaky' phenotype.
Typical X linked agammaglobulinaemia (XLA) is characterised by absence of immunoglobulin production and lack of mature B cells. The gene responsible for XLA has recently been identified, and codes for a B cell tyrosine kinase, BTK. A family affected by a B cell immunodeficiency, which is less severe than classical XLA, is described but they had a pedigree suggestive of X linked inheritance. Dem...
متن کاملA Novel Mutation in THRA Gene Associated With an Atypical Phenotype of Resistance to Thyroid Hormone.
CONTEXT RTHα is a recently discovered resistance to thyroid hormone (RTH) due to mutation of THRA, the gene encoding TRα1, the thyroid hormone receptor. It has been described in a few patients with growth retardation, short stature, and a low free T4/free T3 (FT4/FT3) ratio. OBJECTIVE A 27-year-old patient presenting with dwarfism and a low FT4/FT3 ratio was investigated. DESIGN Clinical, b...
متن کاملInfantile Growth Hormone Deficiency and X- Linked Adrenal Hypoplasia Congenita.
CONTEXT X-linked adrenal hypoplasia congenita (AHC) is a rare but important cause of primary adrenal insufficiency and can be associated with significant morbidity and mortality. AHC is caused by mutations within the NROB1 gene that codes for the DAX-1 protein, an orphan nuclear receptor essential for the development of the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis. Affected individuals typically pre...
متن کاملX-linked dominant growth suppression of transplanted tumors in C57BL/6J-scid mice.
Tumor susceptibility, angiogenesis, and immune response differ between mouse strains. We, therefore, examined the growth rates of tumor xenografts in three genetically isolated strains of severe combined immunodeficient mice (C.B-17, C57BL/6J, and C3H). Tumors grew at significantly reduced rates in the C57BL/6J-scid strain. Engrafting bone marrow from the C57BL/6J-scid strain onto C.B-17-scid m...
