Selective deficiency of immunoglobulin A (IgA) is the most frequent primary hypogammaglobulinemia. As some IgA-deficient patients have IgA antibodies in their plasma which may cause anaphylactic reactions, blood centers usually maintain a list of IgA ...

Sjögren disease (SjD) is a common systemic autoimmune disorder characterized by inflammation of the exocrine glands, resulting in dryness. Patients frequently exhibit extraglandular manifestations affecting various organ systems. To date, there are no US Food and Drug Administration (FDA)‐approved disease‐modifying therapies for SjD. In this review, we

Objective Complement component 4 (C4), encoded by C4A and C4B within the major histocompatibility complex (MHC) on chromosome 6, regulates the immune response and clears immune complexes. The variable copy number (CN) of C4 genes and retroviral human endogenous retrovirus K (HERV‐K) element influence its function.

Objective This study aimed to investigate the mechanisms of immune dysregulation in a pediatric patient with monogenic lupus driven by IKZF1‐haploinsufficiency. Methods Peripheral immune cells from patient with IKZF1‐haploinsufficiency, lupus cases with no currently known genetic mutations, and healthy controls were analyzed using single‐cell RNA ...

Objective To determine risk factors for relapse of ANCA‐associated vasculitis (AAV) after re‐induction of remission with rituximab and discontinuation of maintenance therapy. Methods This is a post‐hoc analysis of the RITAZAREM clinical trial. Patients 15 years or older with AAV and a positive test for anti‐proteinase‐3 (PR3‐) or anti‐myeloperoxidase ...

Multi‐omic profiling reveals immune cell priming signature linked to lupus prognosis
Objective Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) is a multi‐organ disease with widespread immune dysregulation and significant unmet clinical need. Blood‐based gene expression studies have advanced our understanding of SLE pathogenesis but may overlook critical tissue‐specific mechanisms that drive disease heterogeneity and progression.

Aim Elexacaftor/tezacaftor/ivacaftor (ETI) has markedly improved cystic fibrosis (CF) outcomes. However, its long‐term impact on nutrition, metabolism and liver health remains underexplored. We assessed 30‐month changes in pulmonary, nutritional, metabolic and inflammatory markers in people with CF (PwCF) homozygous for F508del.

Various Expression Patterns of α1 and α2 Genes in IgA Deficiency
Background: IgA deficiency (IgAD) is the most common immunodeficiency, however the pathogenesis in most cases of IgAD is unknown. There are 2 subclasses of IgA, IgA1 and IgA2, and its heavy chains are encoded by 2 different genes, the α1 and α2 genes. To
