  2. Hyperimmunoglobulin E syndrome - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hyperimmunoglobulin_E_syndrome

    An IgE level greater than 2,000 IU/mL is often considered diagnostic. [17] However, patients younger than 6 months of age may have very low to non-detectable IgE levels. Eosinophilia is also a common finding with greater than 90% of patients having eosinophil elevations greater than two standard deviations above the normal mean. [ 18 ]

    IgE also plays a pivotal role in responses to allergens, such as anaphylactic reactions to drugs, bee stings, and antigen preparations used in desensitization immunotherapy. IgE is typically the least abundant isotype: blood serum IgE levels in a non-atopic individual are only 0.05% of the Ig concentration, [10] compared to 75% for the IgGs at

  4. DOCK8 deficiency - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DOCK8_deficiency

    DOCK8 deficiency, also called DOCK8 immunodeficiency syndrome, is the autosomal recessive form of hyperimmunoglobulin E syndrome, a genetic disorder characterized by elevated immunoglobulin E levels, eosinophilia, and recurrent infections with staphylococcus and viruses. It is caused by a mutation in the DOCK8 gene.

  5. Radioallergosorbent test - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radioallergosorbent_test

    The RAST is a radioimmunoassay test to detect specific IgE antibodies to suspected or known allergens for the purpose of guiding a diagnosis about allergy. [10] [11] IgE is the antibody associated with Type I allergic response: for example, if a person exhibits a high level of IgE directed against pollen, the test may indicate the person is allergic to pollen (or pollen-like) proteins.

  6. Tropical pulmonary eosinophilia - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tropical_pulmonary_eosino...

    The clearance of rapidly opsonised microfilariae from the bloodstream results in a hypersensitive immunological process and abnormal recruitment of eosinophils, as reflected by extremely high IgE levels of over 1000 kU/L. [5] [9] The typical patient is a young adult man from the Indian subcontinent. [7]

  7. Eosinophilia - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eosinophilia

    Eosinophilia is a condition in which the eosinophil count in the peripheral blood exceeds 5 × 10 8 /L (500/μL). [1] Hypereosinophilia is an elevation in an individual's circulating blood eosinophil count above 1.5 × 10 9 /L (i.e. 1,500/μL).

  8. Wiskott–Aldrich syndrome - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wiskott–Aldrich_syndrome

    Immunoglobulin M (IgM) levels are reduced, IgA and IgE are elevated, and IgG levels can be normal, reduced, or elevated. [4] In addition to thrombocytopenia, WAS patients have abnormally small platelets (i.e. microthrombocytes) and ~30% also have elevated eosinophil counts (i.e. eosinophilia). [5]

  9. Hyper IgM syndrome - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hyper_IgM_syndrome

    Hyper IgM syndrome is a rare primary immune deficiency disorders characterized by low or absent levels of serum IgG, IgA, IgE and normal or increased levels of serum IgM. [ 8 ] They are resulting from mutations in the pathway from B-cell activation to isotype class switching.
