IgG subclass concentrations were determined by a capture ELISA antibody assay using monoclonal antibodies to IgG1 , IgG2 , IgG3 , and IgG4 . All the antibodies had been tested for specificity in an IUIS/WHO collaborative study, and this was confirmed by us by testing against purified myeloma proteins representing the 4 subclasses. The sera to be tested were diluted to obtain optimal sensitivity in the lower normal range for each subclass. With these serum dilutions, the lower limit of reading was 1. 2 g/l for IgG1 , 0. 25 g/l for IgG2 , 0.04 g/l for IgG3 and for IgG4 . Age specific reference limits of the IgG subclass concentrations were determined in serum samples from 138 healthy infants and children under 14 years of age and 66 adults. The reference limits for each age group were determined by calculating the mean ± 2 SD of the logarithms to the values and then taking the antilog of the results. IgA was determined by a turbidimetric method with a reading limit of 0. 1 g/l, and the reference limits were calculated from serum samples from the 138 children under 14 years of age and from 31 healthy adults. The age specific reference limits of the IgG subclasses and IgA are given. Several infants and children had IgG4 levels below the lower reading limit. To determine lower reference limits of IgG4 below the age of 7 years was therefore of little clinical significance. 相似文献

Immunoglobulin G subclass concentrations were measured in paired foetal (cord) and maternal serum specimens at delivery from 27 IgA-deficient (serum IgA < 0.01 g/l) and 15 control women. IgA-deficient women had significantly higher serum IgGl and IgG3 concentrations than control women but 2 of the group had concomitant IgG2/IgG4 deficiency and a further 12 had low IgG4 concentrations (serum IgG4 < 0.025 g/l). Foetal serum also had significantly higher IgGl concentrations than control foetal serum but lower IgG2 and IgG4 levels. Concentrations of IgG subclasses and IgM were measured in breast milk collected on the fifth day postpartum from 19 of these IgA-deficient and 18 control women. Between-group differences in IgG subclass levels resembled those in serum. Compared with serum, proportionally less IgG3 was present in milk in both groups although the contribution of IgG3 to total IgG was not less than that of IgG4. Slightly higher IgM was found in milk from the IgA-deficient mothers. 相似文献

The wheezing infant is a common but difficult patient to approach diagnostically. The prevalence of IgG subclass antibody
deficiency in wheezing infants is still controversial. We studied serum concentration of IgG subclasses in 38 wheezing infants
(aged 6–24 months who had not received systemic steroids before investigation) and in 30 healthy age matched control (aged
6–24 months). The prevalence of one or more IgG subclass deficiency was 31.6% in wheezing infants and 26.7% in controls. There
was no significant difference in prevalence of IgG subclass deficiency between patients and controls (p>0.05). The mean concentration
of IgG subclasses in patients were compared with controls. There was no significant difference in mean serum concentration
of IgG1, G2 and G3 subclasses. But there was a trend towards higher concentrations of IgG4 in wheezing infants and this difference
for IgG4 was significant (p<0.01).
However, IgG subclass deficiency was found in 25% and 36.4% of wheezing infants who had experienced from two to four and five
or more wheezing episodes in two years, respectively (p>0.05).
These findings suggest that wheezing in infancy is not associated with IgG subclass deficiency and in wheezing infants low
IgG subclass levels do not increase the frequency of wheezing. 相似文献

Background: The wheezing infant is a common but difficult patient to approach diagnostically. The prevalence of immunoglobulin (Ig) G subclass deficiency in wheezing infants is still controversial. Methods: We studied the serum concentration of IgG subclasses in 38 wheezing infants (aged6–24 months) who had not received systemic steroids before investigation and in 30 healthy age matched controls6–31 months). Results: The prevalence of one or more IgG subclass deficiencies was 3 1.6% in wheezing infants and 26.7% in controls. There was no significant difference in prevalence of IgG subclass deficiency between patients and controls (P > 0.05). The mean concentration of IgG subclasses in patients were compared with controls. There was no significant difference in mean serum concentration of IgG1, G2 and G3 subclasses. However, there a trend towards higher concentrations of IgG4 in wheezing infants and this difference for IgG5 was significant (P < 0.01). Immunoglobulin G subclass deficiency was found in 25 and 36.4% of wheezing infants who experienced from two to four and five or more wheezing episodes in 2 years, respectively (P > 0.05). Conclusion: Our findings suggest that wheezing in infancy is not associated with IgG subclass deficiency, and in wheezing infants low IgG subclasses levels do not increase the frequency of wheezing. However, is a relationship between recurrent wheezing and serum IgG4 subclass concentration. 相似文献

Objective : The term “IgA Deficiency (IgAD)” should be reserved for the individuals who do not have detectable disorders known to be
associated with low IgA levels. IgG subclass deficiency or a lack of the IgG2 subclass that is specific against polysaccharide
antigens, can be seen in many cases.Methods : Forty-five patients (27 males and 18 females; mean age 8.6 years, range 6.3 to 12.8 years) with IgA deficiency who had
been admitted to the Department of Pediatric Immunology in Uludag University School of Medicine, Turkey, were included in
this study. Serum immunoglobulin (Ig) class and IgG subclass levels, and HLA haplotypes were prospectively determined in patients
and healthy controls.Results : Of the 45 patients with IgAD, 1 was found to have a low level of IgG in the serum. Serum Ig levels were also examined in
the families of 22 patients. Five patients had low-normal levels of IgM, whilst one had low levels of IgA and IgG. The levels
of IgG sublasses were assessed in 23 patients. One patient had a low level of IgG1 ; 2 had low levels of both IgG2 and IgG3,
and 11 had low levels of IgG3. IgG subclass concentrations were found to be normal in control groups. HLA alleles were tested
in 25 patients. An increased prevelence of HLA-A1, -B8, -B14, -DR1, -DR3, and -DR7 were previously observed in patients with
Ig A deficiency. In this study, HLA-A1 allel was found in 3 patients (12 %), HLA-B14 in 3 patients (12%), HLA-DR1 in 10 patients
(40 %), HLA-DR7 in 4 patients (16 %) and HLA-DR3 in 1 patient (4 %). HLA-B8 allel was not found in any patient. Twenty-five
children with normal IgA levels have chosen as a control group. They had HLA-DR1 (36%), HLA-DR7 (16 %), HLA-B8 (8%), HLA-DR3
(16%). HLA-A1 was not found in any member of our control group.Conclusion : No statistically significant difference in HLA susceptibility alleles was found between patients and healthy controls.
Our data suggest that there may be heterogenous HLA distribution patterns in IgA deficiency, or that HLA allel-associated
tendency to IgA deficiency may be polygenic. 相似文献

Serum immunoglobulins including IgG subclasses were measured in 73 unselected children with asthma. The results showed that 22 (30%) had partial IgA and/or IgG4 subclass deficiency. Clinical assessment showed that 21 children were infection-prone, and 52 were not. Further analysis showed that infection-prone children were significantly different from non-infection-prone children with regard to familial history of allergy (29% vs 60%, p = 0.015), elevated IgE (62% vs 33%, p = 0.021), IgA deficiency (38% vs 15%, p = 0.38) and IgG subclass deficiency (24% vs 4%, p = 0.018). These results suggest that there may be subgroups of children with asthma who are also immunodeficient. 相似文献

IgG subclasses were measured in sera of 47 patients with acute hepatitis A during the course of the disease. IgG1 and IgG3 serum levels were found to be elevated, whereas IgG2 and IgG4 subclass concentrations did not differ from that found in healthy control individuals. These findings indicate that, similar to the specific antiviral antibody, the polyclonal increase of serum concentrations of IgG in acute hepatitis A is not equally distributed to all IgG subclasses but is restricted to IgG1 and IgG3. 相似文献

Serum IgG, IgM, IgA, IgG subclasses (IgG1, G2, G3, G4), isohemagglutinins and complement-3 concentrations were measured in
23 beta-thalassemic patients suffering from recurrent infections. No significant abnormalities were found in these humoral
immunity investigations, both in splenectomized and non-splenectomized patients. On the other hand, iron overload or repeated
blood transfusions were not found to down-regulate the humoral immune system of thalassemic patients. 相似文献

In this study serum immunoglobulins (Ig) and IgG subclasses were measured in 42 patients (ranging 9 month-6 year) with recurrent
wheezing and in 37 healthy children determined the relationship between serum Igs and recurrent wheezing. Patients were divided
into two groups according to the age [9 month-2 year (n: 15), and 2–6 year (n: 27)]. In the patients placed in 9–24 month
age group, serum lgG4 level was found to be lower than controls (p<0.05). But there was not a significant difference in mean serum concentrations
of total IgG, IgA, IgM, IgE, IgG1 lgG2 and lgG3 subclasses between the groups (P>0.05). In the 25 month-6 year age group the mean IgE level was increased compared to the
control while lgG3and lgG4 levels were decreased (p<0.05). On the other hand, in the 9–24 month age group there was no significant difference between
the patients and controls for IgG subclasses deficiency (P>0.05). However, significant difference in IgG subclasses deficiency
was present between the patients and controls in the 25 month-6 year group (P<0.001). In conclusion, our findings suggest
that wheezing in childhood may be associated with low lgG3and /or lgG4, and in older children high IgE level may be a part of pathogenetic mechanism in patients with recurrent wheezing. 相似文献

OBJECTIVE: To assess long and short-term effect of prednisolone in hospitalized infants with bronchiolitis. METHODOLOGY: A randomized and controlled trial was carried out at the Federal University of Rio Grande, Rio Grande-RS, Brazil. Twenty-eight patients were randomly allocated prednisolone (1 mg/kg/day for 5 days) plus standard care, and 24 patients allocated standard care alone. The primary endpoint was the prevalence of post-bronchiolitis wheezing at 1, 3, 6 and 12 months after hospital discharge. The secondary endpoints were: length of hospital stay, duration of oxygen therapy and time to clinical improvement during the hospitalization. RESULTS: There were no significant differences between the prednisolone and control group in the prevalence of post-bronchioltis wheezing at 1 month (73.1 vs 83.3%, P = 0.5), 3 months (73.1 vs 79.2%, P = 0.7), 6 months (65.4 vs 66.7%, P = 0.9) and 12 months (50.0 vs 58.3%, P = 0.5) after hospital discharge. No reduction was observed in the prednisolone group, compared with the control group, in terms of length of hospital stay (6.0 vs 5.0 days, P = 0.7), duration of oxygen therapy (24.0 vs 24.0 h, P = 0.4) and time to clinical resolution (4.0 vs 4.0 days, P = 0.8). CONCLUSIONS: Prednisolone has no significant effect on reducing the prevalence of post-bronchiolitis wheezing and on improving the acute course of illness in hospitalized infants with bronchiolitis. 相似文献

Acute bronchiolitis is the main cause of emergency visits and hospitalizations in infants. Recent data suggest that neutrophil- and eosinophil-mediated inflammations were part of bronchiolitis pathophysiology. Apart from the defined risk factors, few was known on the underlying pathophysiology, which might point out the differences observed in the severity of the disease. The aim of this study was to assess whether the clinical severity of acute epidemic bronchiolitis in young infants might be related to a specific underlying inflammatory process. Total and differential cell counts, IL-8, eotaxin, eosinophil cationic protein (ECP) and albumin levels were assessed at the time of admission in bronchial secretions from 37 infants (median age 17 wk) with acute bronchiolitis. Outcome severity variables were: hypoxemia, Silverman score, tachypnea, feeding alteration, and duration of hospitalization. Neutrophils predominated, and eosinophils were present in 54% of the infants. IL-8 levels strongly correlated with ECP and albumin levels. Albumin levels were correlated with ECP and eotaxin levels. IL-8 levels were higher in infants with hypoxemia and inversely related with SaO2 levels. IL-8 and albumin levels significantly rose with respiratory rate, and Silverman score. IL-8, albumin and ECP levels were significantly higher in infants hospitalized ≥7 days. Furthermore, IL-8 levels were correlated with the duration of hospitalization. Neither cell counts nor eotaxin levels were related to the severity criteria studied. This study suggests that IL-8-associated airway inflammation significantly contributed to the severity of acute epidemic bronchiolitis. 相似文献

BACKGROUND: Low levels of serum IgG or IgG subclasses may be responsible for the defective peritoneal defense and for peritonitis attacks in continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis (CAPD) children. Malnutrition, peritoneal loss or frequent peritonitis may lead to IgG or IgG subclasses deficiency. METHODS: Levels of IgG subclasses were determined in 12 children undergoing CAPD treatment. Radial immunodiffusion technique was used for determination. Patients were aged from 6 to 16 years (mean age 12.3 years) and had been on CAPD for 11-26 months (mean duration 19.4 months). We evaluated whether IgG and IgG subclasses deficiency are related to malnutrition, the peritonitis rate and the duration of CAPD using the SPSS program. RESULTS: Serum total IgG levels were found to be low in eight out of 12 patients. Eight patients showed low levels of IgG1, four patients IgG2, one patient IgG3 and three patients IgG4. Total IgG values were found to be positively correlated to malnutrition status, peritonitis rate and duration of CAPD. The IgG2 values were found to be related to the duration of CAPD. The IgG4 values were found to be correlated to the peritonitis rates. CONCLUSIONS: The IgG and IgG subclasses deficiency may develop in children while on CAPD treatment. Periodical determinations of either serum IgG or the subclasses may be useful in the follow-up of these patients. 相似文献

Association between pronounced IgA response in RSV bronchiolitis and development of allergic sensitization 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

Forty-five children who had heen hospitalized with bronchiolitis caused by respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) at a mean age of 4 months, and 90 matched control children, were tested for occurrence of RSV antibodies at one year of age. Of the children who had suffered from bronchiolitis. forty had demonstrable IgG antibodies, whereas the remaining five only had IgA antibodies against RSV. In the control group. 42% were RSV seropositive. The anti-RSV IgA antibody titres tended to be higher in patients with bronchiolitis ihan in controls and a larger proportion of the seropositive children in the former than in the latter group had demonstrable IgG antibodies. These fmdings suggest that RSV infections causing bronchiolitis are more often associated with a strong antibody response than are mild cases of the infection.
Follow-up of the children at 3 years of age showed that allergic sensitization and development of asthma had occurred much more frequently in children with past RSV bronchiolitis than in controls. Children with past RSV bronchiolitis who later developed allergic sensitization had elevated RSV IgA antibody titres at one year of age more frequently than children with past RSV-bronchiolitis. who were not sensitized (p=0.015). No significant differences regarding IgG antibody titres were observed. Since IgA, similarly a. s IgE. antibody formation is strongly Th2 cell dependent, the results are compatible with other fmdings suggesting that RSV has an unusual propensity to activate the Th2 cell system. This may contribute to the pathological picture of bronchiolitis in small children and at the same lime render the infected child predisposed for later development of allergic sensitization. RSV bronchiolitis may thus be an important risk factor for later development of atopic disease although it cannot be excluded that the bronchiolitis simply serves as a marker that predicts later development of atopy. 相似文献

Serum IgG subclass concentrations in healthy subjects at different age: Age normal percentile charts
A. Plebani A. G. Ugazio M. A. Avanzini P. Massimi L. Zonta V. Monafo G. R. Burgio 《European journal of pediatrics》1989,149(3):164-167
IgG subclass levels were determined in 448 normal children from 6 months to 18 years of age and in 141 healthy adults by radial immunodiffusion using monoclonal antibodies. Age-normal percentile values were calculated for each year of age up to 18 years for IgG1, IgG2, IgG3 and in adults for all four subclasses. The broad spread of IgG4 values in children did not permit calculation of reference values. 相似文献
