Natural IgM antibodies in the immune defence against neoehrlichiosis [PDF]
Infectious Diseases, 2017 Neoehrlichiosis is an infectious disease caused by the tick-borne bacterium "Candidatus Neoehrlichia mikurensis". Splenectomy and rituximab therapies are risk factors for severe neoehrlichiosis. Our aim was to examine if neoehrlichiosis patients had low levels of natural IgM antibodies and/or were hypogammaglobulinemic, and if such deficiencies were ...
