Although a diminution of serum gamma globulin or even its total absence electrophoretically not infrequently follows an infection in early childhood, it is much less common in adults. A persistent diminution or absence of serum gamma globulin as the cause of multiple infections is a concept that was introduced by Bruton 1 in 1952.

X-linked Agammaglobulinemia [PDF]
The Indian Journal of Pediatrics, 2016 X-linked agammaglobulinemia (XLA) is one of the commonest primary immune deficiencies encountered in pediatric clinical practice. In adults, common variable immunodeficiency (CVID) is the most common primary immunodeficiency disease (PID). It is an X-linked disorder characterized by increased susceptibility to encapsulated bacteria, severe ...

Eosinophilia and Agammaglobulinemia
Pediatrics, 1965While studying a group of children with the visceral larva migrans syndrome we encountered in the patient group a child with agammaglobulinemia. This child, in spite of an almost complete absence of immune globulins, exhibited the massive eosinophilia characteristic of the tissue phase of helminth infections. Case Report L.

Excerpt The purpose of this report is to call attention to another case of agammaglobulinemia in an adult, to emphasize a few of the features of this interesting process, and to add to the accumula...

Pediatrics, 1952
A hitherto unrecognized entity manifested by complete absence of gamma globulin with otherwise normal serum proteins and recurrent pneumococcal sepsis is described in an 8 year old male. The patient appears to be normal in other respects and after extensive study no structural or functional change could be demonstrated in any body system although gamma

C3 Activator in Agammaglobulinemia
International Archives of Allergy and Immunology, 1978C3 activator in sera of patients with agammaglobulinemia shows higher levels compared with age-matched healthy controls. This fact may be due to a compensatory function of the alternative pathway of the complement system to make up for the defect of production of antibody in these patients.

Agammaglobulinemia is a rare form of primary immune deficiency characterized by absence of circulating B cells and low serum levels of all immunoglobulin classes, in the presence of normal T cell counts and function. Affected patients are particularly susceptible to infections, frequently severe ones.

Agammaglobulinemia: The Fundamental Defect
Science, 1964Addition of phytohemagglutinin and of streptolysin S to in vitro cultures of leukocytes of normal and agammaglobulinemic subjects resulted in mitosis of lymphocytes and their differentiation to plasma cells. In contrast, specific antigens induced mitosis and differentiation of lymphocytes of normal but not of agammaglobulinemic donors. The data suggest

A decade with agammaglobulinemia
The Journal of Pediatrics, 1962Summary This progress report is presented a decade after recognition of a patient with agammaglobulinemia. It includes a brief description and follow-up of the first recognized patient, a brief summary of significant advances in the elucidation of agammaglobulinemia as a disease entity, and some predictions on the type of advances which may be made ...
