The Clinical Significance of Both IgM and IgG Anticardiolipin Antibodies in Non-Hodgkin’s Lymphoma
Background: Anticardiolipin (ACL) antibodies are associated with a wide variety of disorders including malignancies. The aim of this study was to investigate the prevalence and prognostic implication of ACL antibodies in patients with Non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma (NHL). Methods: Sixty-four patients with NHL were included in this study. Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay kits were used to measure the c...
متن کاملTesting for and clinical significance of anticardiolipin antibodies.
The disputed nomenclature of the antibodies associated with the antiphospholipid syndrome (APS) can easily confuse the reader. In this paper we use the historical terms; thus, “antiphospholipid antibodies” (aPL) refers to antibodies associated with the clinical syndrome of venous and arterial thrombosis, recurrent fetal loss, livido reticularis, thrombocytopenia, and other, less common manifest...
متن کاملClinical significance of anticardiolipin antibodies in juvenile idiopathic arthritis.
OBJECTIVE Anticardiolipin antibodies (aCL) have been demonstrated in a large spectrum of autoimmune diseases. However, its occurrence in childhood, in particular in juvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIA), is not well established. The present study addressed the frequency and clinical significance of aCL in a group of JIA patients. METHODS aCL (IgG and IgM isotypes), antinuclear antibodies (ANA),...
متن کاملPathogenic serum IgG anticardiolipin antibodies and the idiotypic network.
OBJECTIVES To determine whether active immunisation of mice with pathogenic anticardiolipin antibodies (IgG and IgM), derived from the serum of a patient with the antiphospholipid syndrome, could dysregulate the idiotypic cascade and induce the production of anti-anti-anti-cardiolipin (Ab3) with anticardiolipin activity by the mice with the association of overt antiphospholipid syndrome. METH...
متن کاملNon-Hodgkins Lymphoma presenting as Garcin’s Syndrome
An 80 year old man presented with a twelve month history of progressive multiple unilateral cranial nerve palsies. A gadolinium enhanced MRI scan of his head and neck was performed. This showed an extra-axial enhancing lesion, which enveloped the hemi-mandible at the level of the left inferior alveolar nerve, and a dumbbell shaped lesion within the cerebellopontine angle. An incisional biopsy w...
