IgA nephropathy (IgAN) is an autoimmune disease characterized by renal glomerular immunodeposits enriched for galactose-deficient IgA1 (Gd-IgA1; autoantigen) with the corresponding IgG autoantibodies.

Expression of combinatorial immunoglobulins in macrophages in the tumor microenvironment. [PDF]
Recent evidence indicates the presence of macrophage subpopulations that express the TCRαβ in chronic inflammatory diseases such as tuberculosis and atherosclerosis and in the tumor microenvironment.

Non-functional immunoglobulin G transcripts in a case of hyper-immunoglobulin M syndrome similar to type 4 [PDF]
86% of immunoglobulin G (IgG) heavy-chain gene transcripts were found to be non-functional in the peripheral blood B cells of a patient initially diagnosed with common variable immunodeficiency, who later developed raised IgM, whereas no non-functionally

CROSSING OVER BETWEEN GENES IN THE IMMUNOGLOBULIN HEAVY CHAIN LINKAGE GROUP OF THE MOUSE [PDF]
Immunoglobulin heavy chain genes were found in wild mice (Mus musculus) that could best be explained as recombinants of immunoglobulin genotypes. In wild mice from Kitty Hawk, N.

Characterization of immunoglobulin heavy chain knockout rats [PDF]
AbstractThe rat is a species frequently used in immunological studies but, until now, there were no models with introduced gene‐specific mutations. In a recent study, we described for the first time the generation of novel rat lines with targeted mutations using zinc‐finger nucleases.

Chimerization of antibodies by isolation of rearranged genomic variable regions by the polymerase chain reaction [PDF]
We describe a new method for amplification, by polymerase chain reaction (PCR), of rearranged segments encoding the variable part of light and heavy chains of an antibody (Ab) from the chromosomal DNA of hybridoma cells for the chimerization ofAbs.

Multiple myeloma immunoglobulin lambda translocations portend poor prognosis
Multiple myeloma is frequently characterised by translocation of genes next to the immunoglobulin heavy chain locus. In this study, the authors sequence a large cohort of high risk myeloma samples and find translocations of cMyc to the immunoglobulin ...

Upstream and downstream sequences of immunoglobulin genes may affect the expression of such genes. However, these sequences are rarely studied or characterized in most studies of immunoglobulin repertoires. Inference from large, rearranged immunoglobulin

Virus-transformed pre-B cells show ordered activation but not inactivation of immunoglobulin gene rearrangement and transcription [PDF]
Virus-transformed pre-B cells undergo ordered immunoglobulin (Ig) gene rearrangements during culture. We devised a series of highly sensitive polymerase chain reaction assays for Ig gene rearrangement and unrearranged Ig gene segment transcription to ...

Human Immunoglobulin Heavy Chain Genes
genes in man, has lagged surprisingly behind similar information in the inbred mouse. The reasons for this are complicated but to some extent are related to the discovery of the myc oncogene. Thus, after genes encoding some of the constant region isotypes as well as the well defined “subgroups,”
