Gene conversion in human rearranged immunoglobulin genes [PDF]
Over the past 20 years, many DNA sequences have been published suggesting that all or part of the V<sub>H</sub> segment of a rearranged immunoglobulin gene may be replaced in vivo. Two different mechanisms appear to be operating. One of these

Monoclonal immunoglobulin heavy chain gene rearrangement in Fuchs’ uveitis
Background Fuchs’ uveitis (FU) is occasionarlly complicated with heavy vitreous opacity. We have performed vitrectomy procedures to remove vitreous opacity in affected patients as part of differential diagnosis for primary vitreoretinal lymphoma (PVRL ...

Human immunoglobulin heavy‐chain multigene deletions in healthy individuals [PDF]
Extensive multigene deletions have been described in the human immunoglobulin heavy‐chain constant region genes, some of them encompassing perhaps more than 100 kilobases. These deletions have all been observed in healthy individuals although these individuals lacked several immunoglobulin class or subclasses, being either homozygous for one deletion ...

Human immunoglobulin allotypes are allelic antigenic determinants (or “markers”) determined serologically, classically by hemagglutination inhibition, on the human immunoglobulin (IG) or antibody heavy and light chains. The allotypes have been identified

Expression of the Thyroid Hormone Receptor Gene, erbAα, in B Lymphocytes: Alternative mRNA Processing is Independent of Differentiation but Correlates with Antisense RNA Levels [PDF]
The erbAα gene encodes two α-thyroid hormone receptor isoforms, TRα1 and TRα2, which arise from alternatively processed mRNAs, erbAα1 (α1) and erb α2 (α2).

Development of human monoclonal antibodies against TARM1 by yeast display
Human monoclonal antibodies against TARM1 are generated by yeast display‐guided selection. These antibodies bind to soluble and cell‐surface forms of TARM1. Also, these antibodies exhibit agonistic activity in the NFAT‐GFP reporter assay, indicating that TARM1 signaling can be functionally modulated by antibodies and suggesting TARM1 as a potential ...

Monoclonal gammopathy with systemic amylodosis: an evaluation of diagnostic elements [PDF]
Monoclonal gammopathies result from an overproduction of a single abnormal clone of plasma cell or B lymphocyte that produce an immunologically homogenous immunoglobulin (Ig) commonly referred to as paraprotein or monoclonal (M) protein.
