Thymic epithelial cells of severe combined immunodeficiency (SCID) mice.
To characterize thymic epithelial cells of SCID (severe combined immunodeficiency) mice in comparison with those of Balb C mice, we did an immunohistochemical study using cortical and medullary epithelial cell specific monoclonal antibodies (MoAbs), Th-3 and Th-4, as well as gel electrophoresis and immunoblotting. The thymi of SCID mice were composed of epithelial cells and a few lymphocytes. M...
متن کاملgenetic monitoring for severe combined immunodeficiency disease (scid) carriers in arabian horses of iran
scid is a lethal genetic autosomal recessive disorder that has been observed in humans, dogs, mice, and horses. affected animals are incapable of generating specific antigens for immune responses needed to protect them from infectious diseases. the frequency of affected recessive allele varies in different regions so that the outcome of normal breeding with carriers of recessive alleles is diff...
متن کاملNewborn screening for severe combined immunodeficiency (SCID): a review.
Because prompt intervention may prevent complications, early diagnosis is important in many inherited metabolic diseases. Early diagnosis of Severe Combined Immunodeficiency (SCID) is critical - because chances for successful treatment are highest for infants who have not yet experienced severe opportunistic infections. SCID is a rare disease that can be detected in newborn infants (i.e., those...
متن کاملLong-term efficacy of enzyme replacement therapy for adenosine deaminase (ADA)-deficient severe combined immunodeficiency (SCID).
Adenosine deaminase (ADA)-deficient Severe Combined Immunodeficiency (ADA-deficient SCID) is characterized by impaired lymphocyte development and function resulting from the adenosine metabolism defect. Enzyme replacement therapy with polyethylene glycol-conjugated adenosine deaminase (PEG-ADA) minimizes infectious complications of ADA-deficient patients who have not received bone marrow transp...
متن کاملNew Developments in Severe Combined Immunodeficiency Disease
Severe combined immunodeficiency disease (SCID) is a fatal, inherited disease of Arabian foals. Studies characterizing the immunophenotype of lymphoid cells and the defect in V(D)J recombination in SCID foals has improved our understanding of the disease. A definitive test that identifies SCID foals and carrier horses is now available. Author’s address: Dept. of Medical Sciences, University of ...
