Diverse patterns of antibody variable gene repertoire disruption in patients with amyloid light chain (AL) amyloidosis.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2020
Immunoglobulin light chain amyloidosis is the most common form of systemic amyloidosis. AL amyloidosis is caused by a misfolded light chain produced by a clonal population of plasma cells.

A tale of monoclonal immunoglobulin: Clinicopathological analysis of proliferative glomerulonephritis with monoclonal immunoglobulin deposit

open access: yesIndian Journal of Pathology and Microbiology, 2021
Background: Proliferative glomerulonephritis with monoclonal immunoglobulin deposit (PGNMID) is an entity with a variable clinical and histological spectrum, which mimics immune-complex mediated glomerulonephritis on light microscopy. In this article, we

Immunoglobulin Free Light Chain Dimers in Human Diseases

open access: yesThe Scientific World Journal, 2011
Immunoglobulin free light chain (FLC) kappa (κ) and lambda (λ) isotypes exist mainly in monomeric and dimeric forms. Under pathological conditions, the level of FLCs as well as the structure of monomeric and dimeric FLCs and their dimerization properties

Idiotype-specific intravenous immunoglobulin for therapy of immunoglobulin kappa free light chain deficiency

open access: yesHuman Vaccines & Immunotherapeutics, 2019
Deficient antibody production in patients with common variable immunodeficiency (CVID) is accompanied by an inability to produce free light chains (FLCs), particularly kappa (κ) FLC, due to B-cell dysfunction.

Triple immunoglobulin gene knockout transchromosomic cattle: bovine lambda cluster deletion and its effect on fully human polyclonal antibody production. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2014
Towards the goal of producing fully human polyclonal antibodies (hpAbs or hIgGs) in transchromosomic (Tc) cattle, we previously reported that Tc cattle carrying a human artificial chromosome (HAC) comprising the entire unrearranged human immunoglobulin ...

Systemic Immunoglobulin Light Chain Amyloidosis Presenting as Painful Penile Ulcers

open access: yesAnnals of Internal Medicine: Clinical Cases, 2022
Immunoglobulin light chain (AL) amyloidosis is a systemic form of amyloidosis that commonly affects the heart, kidney, liver, and nervous system. Penile involvement in AL amyloidosis is rare and thus often not considered in the differential diagnosis for
