RESUMEN

Introdução: As manifestações clínicas da deficiência de imunoglobulina A (DIgA) incluem infecções recorrentes, atopia e doenças autoimunes. No entanto, para o nosso conhecimento, as avaliações concomitantes de doenças autoimunes e autoanticorpos em uma coorte de pacientes com DIgA com idade atual > 10 anos e seus parentes não foram feitas. Objetivos: Avaliar doenças autoimunes e presença de autoanticorpos em pacientes com DIgA e seus parentes de primeiro grau. Métodos: Estudo transversal feito em 34 pacientes com DIgA (idade atual > 10 anos) e em seus parentes de primeiro grau. Todos foram acompanhados em um centro terciário brasileiro para imunodeficiência primária: 27 crianças/adolescentes e sete de seus parentes de primeiro grau com diagnóstico tardio de DIgA. Doenças autoimunes e autoanticorpos (anticorpos antinucleares, fator reumatoide e antitireoglobulina, antitiroperoxidase e anticorpos antiendomísio da classe IgA) também foram avaliadas. Resultados: Doenças autoimunes (n = 14) e/ou autoanticorpos (n = 10, quatro deles com autoanticorpos isolados) foram observadas em 18/34 (53%) dos pacientes e seus parentes. As doenças autoimunes mais comuns encontradas foram tireoidite (18%), artrite crônica (12%) e doença celíaca (6%). Os autoanticorpos mais frequentes foram anticorpos antinucleares (2%), antitireoglobulina e/ou antitireoperoxidase (24%). Nenhuma diferença significativa foi observada no sexo feminino, idade no momento do diagnóstico e idade atual em pacientes com DIgA com e sem doenças autoimunes e/ou presença de autoanticorpos (p > 0,05). As frequências de imunodeficiência de primárias na família, autoimunidade em família, atopia e infecções recorrentes foram semelhantes em ambos os grupos (p> 0,05). Conclusão: Doenças autoimunes e autoanticorpos foram observadas em pacientes com DIgA durante o acompanhamento, o que reforça a necessidade de um acompanhamento rigoroso e contínuo durante a adolescência e a idade adulta. .


Introduction: Clinical manifestations of Immunoglobulin A Deficiency (IgAD) include recur-rent infections, atopy and autoimmune diseases. However, to our knowledge, theconcomitant evaluations of autoimmune diseases and auto antibodies in a cohort of IgADpatients with current age >10 years and their relatives have not been assessed. Objectives: To evaluate autoimmune diseases and the presence of auto antibodies in IgADpatients and their first-degree relatives. Methods: A cross-sectional study was performed in 34 IgAD patients (current age >10years) and their first-degree relatives. All of them were followed at a tertiary Brazilianprimary immunodeficiency center: 27 children/adolescents and 7 of their first-degree rela-tives with a late diagnosis of IgAD. Autoimmune diseases and autoantibodies (antinuclearantibodies, rheumatoid factor, and anti-thyroglobulin, anti-thyroperoxidase and IgA classanti-endomysial antibodies) were also assessed. Results: Autoimmune diseases (n = 14) and/or autoantibodies (n = 10, four of them with iso-lated autoantibodies) were observed in 18/34 (53%) of the patients and their relatives. Themost common autoimmune diseases found were thyroiditis (18%), chronic arthritis (12%)and celiac disease (6%). The most frequent autoantibodies were antinuclear antibodies(2%), anti-thyroglobulin and/or anti-thyroperoxidase (24%). No significant differences wereobserved in the female gender, age at diagnosis and current age in IgAD patients with andwithout autoimmune diseases and/or presence of auto antibodies (p > 0.05). The frequen-cies of primary immunodeficiencies in family, autoimmunity in family, atopy and recurrentinfections were similar in both groups (p > 0.05). Conclusion: Autoimmune diseases and auto antibodies were observed in IgAD patients dur-ing follow-up, reinforcing the necessity of a rigorous and continuous follow-up duringadolescence and adulthood. .

RESUMEN

A síndrome de deleção 22q11.2 (SD22q11.2) está associada à alta variabilidade fenotípica, abrangendo o espectro velocardiofacial/síndrome de DiGeorge. Manifestações autoimunes, endocrinológicas e de imunodeficiência vêm sendo relatadas associadas à síndrome. O objetivo deste estudo foi relatar um caso de SD22q11.2 associado à deficiência de IgA e à doença de Graves e rever a literatura visando verificar a frequência dessas alterações na SD22q11.2. Os distúrbios autoimunes, cada vez mais relacionadas a SD22q11.2 e novos fenótipos, vêm sendo incorporadas ao seu espectro clínico. No presente estudo, verificou-se que a doença de Graves associada à SD22q11.2 foi relatada em apenas dezesseis pacientes e quinze descritos na literatura nos últimos 13 anos. Com base na incidência e na amplitude de seu espectro de manifestações já reconhecidas, reforçaram-se os achados da literatura de que a doença de Graves deve ser incluída nas manifestações da SD22q11.2, o que nos levaria a pesquisá-la nos portadores da deleção 22q11.2.


The 22q11.2 deletion syndrome (22q11.2DS) is related to a high phenotypic variability including the velocardiofacial/DiGeorge spectrum. Autoimmune, endocrine and immunodeficiency manifestations have been reportedly associated with the syndrome. The objective of this study was to report a case of 22q11.2DS associated with IgA deficiency and Graves disease and review literature in order to verify the frequency of syndrome alterations. Autoimmune disorders have been increasingly related to 22q11.2DS, and new phenotypes are being incorporated in the clinical spectrum of this syndrome. In our study we found that Graves disease in association with 22q11.2DS was reported in only sixteen patients, and fifteen cases were described in the last 13 years. Based on the incidence and on the amplitude of this recognized spectrum, we reinforce the findings of literature that Graves disease should be included on the 22q11.2DS manifestations, which would lead us to seek it with 22q11.2 deletion patients.

RESUMEN

Chromosomal anomalies occur in 0.4% of live births. Ring chromosomes have been found for all human chromosomes and when it is replacing a normal chromosome, it results as a partial monosomy. The phenotype often overlaps that seen in comparable deletion syndromes of the same chromosomes. In the present report the authors describe the clinical manifestations of a girl with ring chromosome 18 (46XX,r18) including dysmorphic features, failure to thrive, global delay of development, hypothyroidism, atopic dermatitis, bilateral chronic otitis media, aortic regurgitation with patent foramen ovale and immunoglobulin A deficiency.

RESUMEN

OBJECTIVE: The term "IgA Deficiency (IgAD)" should be reserved for the individuals who do not have detectable disorders known to be associated with low IgA levels. IgG subclass deficiency or a lack of the IgG2 subclass that is specific against polysaccharide antigens, can be seen in many cases. METHODS: Forty-five patients (27 males and 18 females; mean age 8.6 years, range 6.3 to 12.8 years) with IgA deficiency who had been admitted to the Department of Pediatric Immunology in Uludag University School of Medicine, Turkey, were included in this study. Serum immunoglobulin (Ig) class and IgG subclass levels, and HLA haplotypes were prospectively determined in patients and healthy controls. RESULTS: Of the 45 patients with IgAD, 1 was found to have a low level of IgG in the serum. Serum Ig levels were also examined in the families of 22 patients. Five patients had low-normal levels of IgM, whilst one had low levels of IgA and IgG. The levels of IgG subclasses were assessed in 23 patients. One patient had a low level of IgG1; 2 had low levels of both IgG2 and IgG3, and 11 had low levels of IgG3. IgG subclass concentrations were found to be normal in control groups. HLA alleles were tested in 25 patients. An increased prevelence of HLA-A1, -B8, -B14, -DR1, -DR3, and -DR7 were previously observed in patients with IgA deficiency. In this study, HLA-A1 allel was found in 3 patients (12%), HLA-B14 in 3 patients (12%), HLA-DR1 in 10 patients (40%), HLA-DR7 in 4 patients (16%) and HLA-DR3 in 1 patient (4%). HLA-B8 allel was not found in any patient. Twenty-five children with normal IgA levels have chosen as a control group. They had HLA-DR1 (36%), HLA-DR7 (16%), HLA-B8 (8%), HLA-DR3 (16%). HLA-A1 was not found in any member of our control group. CONCLUSION: No statistically significant difference in HLA susceptibility alleles was found between patients and healthy controls. Our data suggest that there may be heterogenous HLA distribution patterns in IgA deficiency, or that HLA allel-associated tendency to IgA deficiency may be polygenic.

RESUMEN

Objetivo: Estudar a deficiência de imunoglobulina A (IgA) nos aspectos clínicos, labaoratoriais e terapêuticos. Métodos: Revisäo bibliográfica dos últimos dez anos, abordando o tema por meio do sistema Medline e procura direta. Resultados e conclusöes: Por ser a imunodeficiência primária mais freqüente, com prevalência média de 1:700, a deficiência de IgA deve ser estudada em seus apectos clínicos, laboratoriais e terapêuticos pelo pediatra e subespecialistas pediátricos. As características clínicas da imunodeficiência total e parcial ou transitória devem ser conhecidas, assim como as complicaçöes e as técnicas laboratoriais, intuito de se estabelecer diagnóstico e prognóstico corretos.
