IgG4 immunostaining needs to be specifically requested and performed in order to detect IgG4-positive plasma cells. Fibrosis , arranged at least focally [ 3 ] in a "storiform" pattern . "Storiform" is commonly referred to as meaning 'having a cartwheel pattern', but its literal meaning is the appearance of 'a woven mat [Latin: storea ] (of rush ...
[1] [2] The main clinically relevant form of IgG deficiency is IgG 2. IgG 3 deficiency is not usually encountered without other concomitant immunoglobulin deficiencies, and IgG 4 deficiency is very common but usually asymptomatic. [3] IgG1 is present in the bloodstream at a percentage of about 60-70%, IgG2-20-30%, IgG3 about 5-8 %, and IgG4 1-3 %.
However, surgery is not a good treatment for this condition as AIP responds well to immunosuppressive treatment. There are two categories of AIP: Type 1 and Type 2, each with distinct clinical profiles. Type 1 AIP is now regarded as a manifestation of IgG4-related disease, [2] and those affected have tended to be older and to have a high ...
The water-accessible surface area of an IgG antibody. Immunoglobulin G (IgG) is a type of antibody.Representing approximately 75% of serum antibodies in humans, IgG is the most common type of antibody found in blood circulation. [1]
IgG4-related ophthalmic disease (IgG4-ROD) is the recommended term to describe orbital (eye socket) manifestations of the systemic condition IgG4-related disease, [2] which is characterised by infiltration of lymphocytes and plasma cells and subsequent fibrosis in involved structures. It can involve one or more of the orbital structures.

The most common antibody isotype involved in warm antibody AIHA is IgG, though sometimes IgA is found. The IgG antibodies attach to a red blood cell, leaving their F C portion exposed with maximal reactivity at 37 °C (versus cold antibody induced hemolytic anemia whose antibodies only bind red blood cells at low body temperatures, typically 28–31 °C).
Although a clear understanding of the various skin lesions in IgG4-related disease is a work in progress, skin lesions have been classified into subtypes based on documented cases: [2] Angiolymphoid hyperplasia with eosinophilia (or lesions that mimic it) [3] and cutaneous pseudolymphoma; Cutaneous plasmacytosis [Note 1]
