Immune Thrombocytopenia in an Adult With X‐linked Agammaglobulinemia: A Case Report [PDF]
Abstract In patients with X‐linked agammaglobulinemia (XLA), serum immunoglobulins are almost completely lacking. The prevalence of autoimmune diseases is low in XLA compared with other primary immunodeficiency diseases because antibodies are absent in XLA.

Clinical periodontal diagnosis
Abstract Periodontal diseases include pathological conditions elicited by the presence of bacterial biofilms leading to a host response. In the diagnostic process, clinical signs such as bleeding on probing, development of periodontal pockets and gingival recessions, furcation involvement and presence of radiographic bone loss should be assessed prior ...

Burton's Agammaglobulinemia and COVID-19 [PDF]
During the SARS-CoV-2 global pandemic, many patients who have co-morbid conditions are considered high risk for morbidity and mortality; however, those who are immunodeficient are at higher risk of becoming seriously ill. In this article, we present a 26-year old male with a history of X-linked agammaglobulinemia who presented to the hospital with ...

Studies on Agammaglobulinemia VI. Hemostasis in Patients with Agammaglobulinemia.
Summary and Conclusions1. The activity or concentration of the clotting factors recognized at the present time have been determined in 7 patients with agammaglobulinemia. Four of the patients had the congenital-hereditary form of agammaglobulinemia and three had the acquired form of the disease. 2.

Bruton's agammaglobulinemia [PDF]
Probably slight; in a 1963 paper, two patients with lymphoma were reported and reference was made to two adults with hypoglobulinemia who also had lymphomas; recent surveys of XLA patients do not reveal any cases of lymphoma; however, long-term vigilance needs to be maintained; at least seven cases of adenocarcinoma of the gastrointestinal tract in ...

CRISPR/Cas9‐edited tumor‐associated immune cells in cancer immunotherapy
Abstract Immuno‐oncology represents an emerging field that has significantly transformed tumor therapeutics, with immune cells serving as the cellular foundations of cancer immunotherapy. Due to its high efficiency and sensitivity, CRISPR/Cas9 genome editing is a highly promising technique for precise and rapid gene modification.

Beyond TREC: Pivotal role of tandem TREC/KREC assay in Czech SCID NBS pilot programme
Abstract Background Severe combined immunodeficiency (SCID) is a fatal but treatable inborn error of immunity (IEI). Newborn screening (NBS) using T‐cell receptor excision circles (TREC) has been adopted globally, with very few countries incorporating kappa recombination excision circles (KREC) to also detect early B‐cell development disorders, such as

X-linked agammaglobulinemia (XLA) patients manifest a very low production of immunoglobulins (Ig) of all classes and plasma cells are virtually absent. The XLA gene plays a crucial role in the transition of pre-B cells to later B cell stages, as hardly any slg-positive B lymphocytes can be detected.
