Carbapenem resistant Campylobacter jejuni bacteremia in a Bruton's X-linked agammaglobulinemia patient. [PDF]
Immunocompromised patients are prone to recurrent Campylobacter infections. We report a case of recurrent multi-drug resistant Campylobactor jejuni bloodstream infections in a Bruton’s X-linked agammaglobulinemia patient with prolonged ertapenem ...

Pulmonary alveolar proteinosis induced by X-linked agammaglobulinemia: A case report. [PDF]
BACKGROUND Pulmonary alveolar proteinosis (PAP) and X-linked agammaglobulinemia (XLA) are rare diseases in children. Many theories infer that immunodeficiency can induce PAP, but these reports are almost all review articles, and there is little clinical ...

Autoimmunity and Inflammation in X-linked Agammaglobulinemia [PDF]
In the past, XLA was described as associated with several inflammatory conditions, but with adequate immune globulin treatment, these are presumed to have diminished. The actual prevalence is not known.A web-based patient survey was conducted December 2011- February 2012.

Revisiting X-linked agammaglobulinemia
Discovered >70 years ago by Ogden Bruton, X-linked agammaglobulinemia (XLA), characterized by recurrent bacterial infections, hypo/agammaglobulinemia, and peripheral blood B-cell deficiency, is among the best-established inborn errors of immunity (IEIs) and one of the most well-documented single types of IEIs, the incidence of which is estimated

COVID-19 and X-linked agammaglobulinemia (XLA) – insights from a monogenic antibody deficiency
Purpose of review The clinical outcomes from COVID-19 in monogenic causes of predominant antibody deficiency have pivotal implications for our understanding of the antiviral contribution of humoral immunity.

Gastric adenocarcinoma in a patient with X-linked agammaglobulinemia and HIV: Case report and review of the literature [PDF]
X-linked agammaglobulinemia (XLA) is an X-linked inherited disease usually caused by a germline mutation in the BTK gene leading to Bruton’s tyrosine kinase deficiency, which results in the impaired development of B-lymphocytes and a subsequent lack of ...

Naïve Regulatory T Cell Subset Is Altered in X-Linked Agammaglobulinemia [PDF]
The interplay between T- and B-cell compartments during naïve, effector and memory T cell maturation is critical for a balanced immune response. Primary B-cell immunodeficiency arising from X-linked agammaglobulinemia (XLA) offers a model to explore B ...
