Humoral immune deficiency (including B cell deficiency or dysfunction), with signs or symptoms depending on the cause, but generally include signs of hypogammaglobulinemia (decrease of one or more types of antibodies) with presentations including repeated mild respiratory infections, and/or agammaglobulinemia (lack of all or most antibody production) which results in frequent severe infections ...
Symptoms: Weak immune system, mouth ulcers, sore throat, lethargy, high fever and chills: Usual onset: Present from birth: Duration: Disappears or weakens by age three: Causes: Autoimmune abnormality: Diagnostic method: Blood tests: Treatment: Granulocyte colony-stimulating factors (G-CSF) Medication: Corticosteroids and antibiotics: Prognosis
An autoimmune disease is a condition arising from an abnormal immune response to a normal body part. [5] There are at least 80 types of autoimmune diseases. [5] Nearly any body part can be involved. Common symptoms include low-grade fever and feeling tired. [5] Often symptoms come and go. [5]
Hypogammaglobulinemia may result from a variety of primary genetic immune system defects, such as common variable immunodeficiency, [1] or it may be caused by secondary effects such as medication, blood cancer, or poor nutrition, or loss of gamma globulins in urine, as in nonselective glomerular proteinuria.
T cell deficiency is a deficiency of T cells, caused by decreased function of individual T cells, it causes an immunodeficiency of cell-mediated immunity. [1] T cells normal function is to help with the human body's immunity, they are one of the two primary types of lymphocytes (the other being B cells).
Existing treatments aim to suppress the immune system to prevent further damage to nerve cells. A new study has developed a treatment that can help regenerate myelin with the potential to stop and ...
Primary immunodeficiencies are disorders in which part of the body's immune system is missing or does not function normally. [1] To be considered a primary immunodeficiency (PID), the immune deficiency must be inborn, not caused by secondary factors such as other disease, drug treatment, or environmental exposure to toxins.
The lack of naïve T lymphocytes is the cause of low plasticity of the immune system in the elderly. [11] In aging of the immune system is also a decrease in central tolerance and an increase in the number of autoreactive T cells. [12] B cells also have a decreased repertoire of naïve cells and an increase in memory B cells. [13]
