Common variable immunodeficiency is associated with defective functions of dendritic cells.
Common variable immunodeficiency (CVID) is characterized by hypogammaglobulinemia and defects in T-cell functions that could be primary or secondary. We addressed whether CVID is associated with impairment in the dendritic cell (DC) compartment, as DCs play a central role in the development of adaptive immunity. We demonstrate that DCs from CVID patients display severely perturbed differentiati...
متن کاملAltered dendritic cell distribution in patients with common variable immunodeficiency
Recent data suggest a critical role for dendritic cells (DCs) in the generation of immunoglobulin-secreting plasma cells. In the work reported herein, we analyzed the frequency of peripheral blood plasmacytoid DCs (pDCs) and myeloid DCs (mDCs) in a cohort of 44 adults with common variable immunodeficiency (CVID) classified according to their CD27 membrane expression status on B cells. A deep al...
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...
متن کاملCommon variable immunodeficiency
Common variable immunodeficiency (CVID) is a common primary immunodeficiency characterized by a failure in B-cell differentiation with defective immunoglobulin production. Affected patients are uniquely susceptible to recurrent infection with encapsulated organisms and have an increased propensity for the development of inflammatory and autoimmune manifestations. The diagnosis of CVID is common...
