Secretory IgA: Designed for Anti-Microbial Defense
Prevention of infections by vaccination remains a compelling goal to improve public health. Mucosal vaccines would make immunization procedures easier, be better suited for mass administration, and most efficiently induce immune exclusion - a term coined for non-inflammatory antibody shielding of internal body surfaces, mediated principally by secretory immunoglobulin A (SIgA). The exported ant...
متن کاملThe Diagnostic Value of Serum IgG-Antigliadin, IgA Anti-endomysial and IgA Anti-tissue Transglutaminase Antibodies for Pediatric Celiac Disease
Background and Objective: Celiac disease is an autoimmune disorder, characterized by inflammation, villous atrophy, and crypt hyperplasia of the small bowel mucosa. In this study we considered and compared sensitivity and specificity of serological tests in patients with celiac disease. Materials and Methods: In this cross-sectional study we prospectively recruited children with suspected c...
متن کاملMucosal secretory IgA and secretory piece in adult coeliac disease.
Immunofluorescence studies with specific antisera to secretory IgA (11S IgA) and secretory piece were carried out on the jejunal mucosa of nine patients with adult coeliac disease (treated and untreated). The results were compared with those obtained in four normal patients and in four patients with local and systemic IgA (7S) deficiency. 11S IgA and secretory piece were localized to the upper ...
متن کاملRelaxation training and breast milk secretory IgA.
OBJECTIVE To evaluate the hypothesis that breast-feeding women who participate in relaxation training will have increased secretory IgA (sIgA) levels in their breast milk compared with women not receiving training. DESIGN Nonrandomized control trial of a convenience sample. SETTING Women were recruited from the postpartum floor of a university teaching hospital. The intervention took place ...
متن کاملThe polymeric immunoglobulin receptor (secretory component) mediates transport of immune complexes across epithelial cells: a local defense function for IgA.
The polymeric immunoglobulin receptor (pIgR) on mucosal epithelial cells binds dimeric IgA (dIgA) on the basolateral surface and mediates transport of dIgA to the apical surface. Using Madin-Darby canine kidney epithelial cells stably transfected with pIgR cDNA, we found that soluble immune complexes (ICs) of 125I-labeled rat monoclonal antidinitrophenyl (DNP) dIgA (125I-dIgA) and DNP/biotin-bo...
