Serum immunoglobulin (IgG, A, M) levels in Type I childhood diabetics

Serum immunoglobulin and transferrin levels after childhood splenectomy.

Schumacher, M. J. (1970). Archives of Disease in Childhood, 45, 114. Serum immunoglobulin and transferrin levels after childhood splenectomy. IgG, IgA, IgM, and transferrin levels were measured in sera from a group of children who had been subjected to splenectomy in the previous 10 years. In those children splenectomized for hereditary spherocytosis, idiopathic thrombocytopenic purpura, or tra...

I-29: Menstrual Cycle Dependent Variation in Serum Levels of Anti-M

Serum immunoglobulin levels in giardiasis.

Giardiasis is a common disease of the small intestine of man caused by the flagellated protozoan parasite. The influence of host immunity on infection and on modulating its clinical course remains uncertain. Infection in some hosts may be short lived and spontaneously self-limited, while in others it may result in prolonged debilitating illness. Though specific antibody msponse occurs in the ho...

Deficiency in Serum Immunoglobulin (Ig)m Predisposes to Development of Igg Autoantibodies

Serum immunoglobulin (Ig)M provides the initial response to foreign antigen and plays a regulatory role in subsequent immune response development, accelerating the production of high-affinity IgG. Here we show that mice deficient in serum IgM have an increased propensity to spontaneous autoimmunity as judged by the development with age of serum IgG anti-DNA antibodies and the renal deposition o...

A Review on Saliva and Serum Lipid Profile Levels in Type 2 Diabetics

Saliva, a biologic fluid secreted by salivary gland plays a role in medical science over blood or serum samples. Collection of saliva is simple, economical and requires minimal involvement of medical personnel. Based on the several studies, a number of biomarkers have been detected in saliva for T2DM. Patients with Type 2 diabetes mellitus are known to have a compromised salivary function as th...
