We have defined the clinical presentation and course of X-linked agammaglobulinemia (X-LA) by means of a multi-center retrospective survey of 96 patients. Infections were the most common presenting feature of patients with X-LA. The most frequent infections involved the upper respiratory tract (75%), lower respiratory tract (65%), gastrointestinal ...

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.

Disseminated Spiroplasma apis Infection in Patient with Agammaglobulinemia, France
We report a disseminated infection caused by Spiroplasma apis, a honeybee pathogen, in a patient in France who had X-linked agammaglobulinemia. Identification was challenging because initial bacterial cultures and direct examination by Gram staining were

Gastrointestinal Manifestations in X-linked Agammaglobulinemia [PDF]
X-linked agammaglobulinemia is a primary humoral immunodeficiency characterized by hypogammaglobulinemia and increased susceptibility to infection. Although there is increased awareness of autoimmune and inflammatory complications in X-linked agammaglobulinemia (XLA), the spectrum of gastrointestinal manifestations has not previously been fully ...

Gastrointestinal disorders next to respiratory infections as leading symptoms of X-linked agammaglobulinemia in children – 34-year experience of a single center [PDF]
Introduction: Respiratory tract infections constitute the most frequent manifestation of X-linked agammaglobulinemia (XLA). There are not many papers elucidating gastrointestinal (GI) disorders, including inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), in such ...

X-linked agammaglobulinemia (XLA) is a primary immunodeficiency caused by mutations in the gene for Bruton tyrosine kinase (BTK) that result in the deficient development of B lymphocytes and hypogammaglobulinemia. Because the disorder is uncommon, no single institution has had sufficient numbers of patients to develop a comprehensive clinical picture ...

X-linked agammaglobulinemia with bronchiectasis and infection: a case report [PDF]
X-linked agammaglobulinemia (XLA) is a rare disease characterized by severe hypogammaglobulinemia, antibody deficiency, and recurrent infections. This study reports a case of X-linked agammaglobulinemia combined with bronchiectasis and infection.

Phylogeny of Tec Family Kinases: Identification of a Pre-Metazoan Origin of Btk, Bmx, Itk, Tec, Txk and the Btk Regulator SH3BP5 [PDF]
It is generally considered mammals and birds have five Tec family kinases (TFKs): Btk, Bmx (also known as Etk), Itk, Tec, and Txk (also known as Rlk). Here, we discuss the domains and their functions and regulation in TFKs.
