Humoral immunity in steroid-dependent children with asthma and hypogammaglobulinemia

The Journal of Pediatrics
G LackE W Gelfand

Abstract

To determine primary and secondary antibody responses in children with hypogammaglobulinemia attributed to corticosteroid use. In seven patients with steroid-dependent asthma and significant hypogammaglobulinemia (IgG concentration, 275 to 443 mg/dl), antibody responses to protein and polysaccharide antigens were shown to be normal, as were primary and secondary responses to a neoantigen, bacteriophage phi X174. Patients with asthma, and with hypogammaglobulinemia resulting from steroid therapy, have normal humoral immunity, and immunoglobulin replacement therapy is not indicated.

Bacterial Pneumonia

Bacterial pneumonia is a prevalent and costly infection that is a significant cause of morbidity and mortality in patients of all ages. Here is the latest research.

Asthma

This feed focuses in Asthma in which your airways narrow and swell. This can make breathing difficult and trigger coughing, wheezing and shortness of breath.

Allergy and Asthma

Allergy and asthma are inflammatory disorders that are triggered by the activation of an allergen-specific regulatory t cell. These t cells become activated when allergens are recognized by allergen-presenting cells. Here is the latest research on allergy and asthma.
