Acute respiratory distress syndrome due to methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus sepsis in hyper-IgE syndrome.
We report the case of a 34 year old woman with acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) and disseminated intravascular coagulation (DIC) due to methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) sepsis with hyperimmunoglobulin E syndrome (HIES). Although chemotactic activity of neutrophils was impaired in this patient, neutrophils accumulated in the lungs as assessed by bronchoalveolar lavage...
متن کاملSTAT3 and the Hyper-IgE syndrome
During recent years a number of primary immunodeficiencies resulting from impaired function of JAK-STAT molecules have been described. One of these is the Hyper-IgE syndrome (HIES) characterized by elevated IgE levels, eczema, recurrent staphylococcal skin and pulmonary infections and pleiotropic somatic manifestations. In 2007 the genetic basis of HIES was revealed by identification of dominan...
متن کاملReduced sensitivity of staphylococcus aureus to vancomycin
Introduction: Staphylococcus aureus is one of the most common causes of infections in hospitals and vancomycin is used for the treatment of methicillin resistant S, aureus infections. Therefore, imergence of Staphylococcus aureus with reduced sensitivity to vancomycin is a serious problem. The aim of this study was to investigate the prevalence of Staphylococcus aureus with reduced suscep...
متن کاملMutations in STAT3 and diagnostic guidelines for hyper-IgE syndrome.
BACKGROUND The hyper-IgE syndrome (HIES) is a primary immunodeficiency characterized by infections of the lung and skin, elevated serum IgE, and involvement of the soft and bony tissues. Recently, HIES has been associated with heterozygous dominant-negative mutations in the signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 (STAT3) and severe reductions of T(H)17 cells. OBJECTIVE To determine...
متن کاملPrevention of bacteriophage adsorption to Staphylococcus aureus by immunoglobulin G.
Normal human and rabbit sera when incubated with Staphylococcus aureus inhibit the adsorption of bacteriophages. The bacteriophage adsorption was also inhibited by separated normal immunoglobulin M (IgM), F(ab')(2), and Fab-fragments of IgG. No inhibition was obtained with myeloma IgG or Fc-fragments of normal human and rabbit IgG. The results indicate that the serum inhibition of bacteriophage...
