Targeting Brutons Tyrosine Kinase in Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia at the Crossroad between Intrinsic and Extrinsic Pro-survival Signals [PDF]
Chemo immunotherapies for chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) showed a positive impact on clinical outcome, but many patients relapsed or become refractory to the available treatments.

Fatal SARS in X-Linked Lymphoproliferative Disease Type 1: A Case Report
X-linked lymphoproliferative disease (XLP1) is an inborn error of immunity (IEI) with severe immune dysregulation caused by a mutation in the SH2D1A gene resulting in the absence or dysfunction of signaling lymphocytic activation molecule (SLAM ...

Optimization of immunoglobulin substitution therapy by a stochastic immune response model [PDF]
Background: The immune system is a complex adaptive system of cells and molecules that are interwoven in a highly organized communication network. Primary immune deficiencies are disorders in which essential parts of the immune system are absent or do ...

Antibodies aggravate the development of ischemic heart failure [PDF]
Heart-specific antibodies have been widely associated with myocardial infarction (MI). However, it remains unclear whether autoantibodies mediate disease progression or are a byproduct of cardiac injury. To disambiguate the role of immunoglobulins in MI,

Genetic stability of Campylobacter coli in patients with primary antibody deficiencies [PDF]
In the Clinical Communication, Dion et al 1 reported that in patients with severe primary antibody deficiency (PAD), Campylobacter infection is a major cause (6.5%) of chronic or recurrent diarrhea. Moreover, by a molecular study performed in a subset of

Presentation of a case of Bruton type primary agammaglobulinemia in Guinea
X-linked agammaglobulinemia (XLA) is a rare genetic disease caused by a mutation in the Bruton tyrosine kinase (BTK) gene. It is characterized by a profound deficiency of B cells and a decrease in all classes of immunoglobulins (Ig).

Mutations of Bruton's tyrosine kinase gene in Brazilian patients with X-linked agammaglobulinemia [PDF]
Mutations in Bruton's tyrosine kinase (BTK) gene are responsible for X-linked agammaglobulinemia (XLA), which is characterized by recurrent bacterial infections, profound hypogammaglobulinemia, and decreased numbers of mature B cells in peripheral blood.
