Atwood's Heavy Chain

The Physics Teacher, 2011
While perusing various websites in search of a more challenging lab for my students, I came across a number of ideas where replacing the string in an Atwood's machine1 with a simple ball chain like the kind found in lamp pulls created an interesting ...

Heavy-chain diseases [PDF]

open access: possibleHematology/Oncology Clinics of North America, 1999
This review underscores the diversity of the structural and genetic abnormalities of HCD proteins and of the clinicopathologic features of the underlying lymphoproliferative disorders. Cells producing HCD may, however, all derive from a common normal precursor, which could be a rare B cell in the process of immunoglobulin gene somatic mutation within ...

Heavy chain diseases

Best Practice & Research Clinical Haematology, 2005
Heavy chain diseases (HCDs) are rare B-cell lymphoplasma-cell proliferative disorders characterized by production of truncated monoclonal immunoglobulin heavy chains without associated light chains. HCDs involving the three main immunoglobulin classes have been described; alpha-HCD is the most common and has the most uniform presentation, gamma- and mu-

Heavy Chain Disease

Archives of Internal Medicine, 1972
To the Editor. —We read with interest the paper in the September issue1 on αheavy chain disease in which the pathological immunoglobulin disappeared with chemotherapy. The authors state that up to the time of acceptance of their paper all cases of so-called Mediterranean lymphoma and α-chain disease have occurred either in Arabs or oriental Jews in ...

HEAVY CHAIN DISEASES*

Annals of the New York Academy of Sciences, 1971
The recent elucidation of the structure of immunoglobulins, and the more precise immunologic and chemical characterization of the proteins produced by patients with proliferative disorders of plasma cells and lymphocytes have led to a clearer understanding of the biosynthetic alterations accompanying them.

Heavy chain disease

Current Treatment Options in Oncology, 2002
The heavy chain diseases (HCDs) are rare B-cell malignancies that are distinguished by the production of a monoclonal immunoglobulin heavy chain (HC) without an associated light chain by the malignant B-cells. There are three types of HCD defined by the class of immunoglobulin (Ig) HC produced: IgA (alpha-HCD), IgG (gamma-HCD), and IgM (mu-HCD).

Structure of Abnormal Heavy Chains in Human Heavy-chain-deposition Disease

European Journal of Biochemistry, 1995
The sequences of two immunoglobulin gamma 1 heavy chains involved in the formation of non-amyloid tissue deposits were determined in two patients (RIC and THR) affected with plasma cell monoclonal proliferation and heavy-chain-deposition disease. The proliferating plasma cells of patients RIC and THR synthesized truncated gamma 1 chains of 45 kDa and ...
