Pathomorphological characteristic of IgG4-related diseases
IgG4-related diseases are a relatively new group of diseases of unknown etiology which are characterized by the development of fibrosis of organs with the presence of big amounts of IgG4-positive plasma-cells in the area of the lesions and increased ...

Detection of serum IgG4 levels in patients with IgG4-related disease and other disorders. [PDF]
Elevated serum IgG4 levels are an important hallmark for diagnosing IgG4-related disease (IgG4-RD), but can also be observed in other diseases. This study aimed to compare two different testing methods for IgG4: ELISA and nephelometric assay. Both assays

IgG4 autoantibodies and autoantigens in the context of IgG4-autoimmune disease and IgG4-related disease [PDF]
Immunoglobulins are an essential part of the humoral immune response. IgG4 antibodies are the least prevalent subclass and have unique structural and functional properties. In this review, we discuss IgG4 class switch and B cell production. We review the
