immunoglobulins g, a, and m have been reponed to be present in statistically significant higher levels in diabetic patients compared to healthy comrols. ii may be conceived that the levels of immunoglobulins might be significantly higher in diabetics with long-lasting (months of) poor control than in peers with an equally long term period of good control. to assess this possibility, we measured...

BACKGROUND Scleromyxoedema is a variant of papular mucinosis affecting the skin and internal organs. The different therapeutic approaches proposed for scleromyxoedema are still unsatisfactory. Intravenous immunoglobulin (IVIg) has been successfully employed in the treatment of connective tissue diseases and vasculitides. PATIENTS The successful treatment of three cases of scleromyxoedema with...

the bulk of our knowledge on immunosuppression in malnutrition comes from the experiments done on cell-mediated immunity. however, malnutrition-induced modifications of humoral immunity have been less understood. the objective of this study was to determine the effects of acute protein-energy malnutrition on serum levels of immunoglobulins and their subclasses in murine models. male and female ...

Introduction: Multiple myeloma (MM) is typically presented with abundant monoclonal secretion of one type of immunoglobulin. The other classes of immunoglobulins, which are uninvolved and not secreted by malignant plasma cells, could be decreased. A number of previous studies reported the effect of suppression of uninvolved immunoglobulins on the outcome of patients with myeloma. However, its e...
