selective IgA deficiencyLow or absent immunoglobulin A (IgA) levels are frequently found in children in whom immunodeficiency is not suspected. IgA deficiency is the most common primary immunodeficiency disorder in the UK affecting approximately 1 in 600 people. Isolated IgA deficiency is often ...
Typical symptoms of celiac disease: Chronic diarrhea, growth faltering and iron deficiency anemia. Positivity of serum celiac disease IgA class autoantibodies at high titer: Both IgA class anti-tTG and endomyseal antibody (EMA) in IgA-sufficient subjects or IgG class anti-tTG and EMA in IgA def...
One might instead suggest that the deficiency of IgA at one mucosal site, e.g. the mammary gland, probably reflects a more widespread condi- tion in the mother, locally affecting a number of other mucosal sites, such as the gut of the mother. In conclusion, we present evidence of the ...
