People with this condition may have a family history of agammaglobulinemia (or another immune disorder).

The condition he discovered is sometimes referenced by his name: "Bruton-type agammaglobulinemia".

Agammaglobulinemia is a rare disorder that mainly affects males.

Without protective immunoglobulins, people with agammaglobulinemia repeatedly develop infections.

Genetic counseling should be offered to prospective parents with a family history of agammaglobulinemia or other immunodeficiency disorders.

It is found in patients with X-linked Agammaglobulinemia.

It presents similar to X-linked agammaglobulinemia, but the conditions can be distinguished with flow cytometry.

Agammaglobulinemia is an inherited disorder in which there are very low levels of protective immune system proteins called immunoglobulins.

A decade with agammaglobulinemia.

Agammaglobulinemia.

Some immune deficiencies, such as X-linked agammaglobulinemia and hypogammaglobulinemia, result in partial or complete lack of antibodies.

X-linked agammaglobulinemia (XLA), which affects the body's ability to fight infection.

"Hypogammaglobulinemia" is largely synonymous with "agammaglobulinemia".

Treatment with IVIG has greatly improved the health of people with agammaglobulinemia.

X-linked agammaglobulinemia patients are immune to the most dangerous adverse effect, anaphylactic shock, as they do not have the antibodies to react against the treatment.

X-linked agammaglobulinemia, an immune deficiency.

When the latter term is used (as in "X-linked agammaglobulinemia") it implies that gamma globulins are not merely reduced, but completely absent.

You have a family history of agammaglobulinemia or another immunodeficiency disorder and you are planning to have children (ask the provider about genetic counseling)

Serology blood tests help to diagnose patients with certain immune deficiencies associated with the lack of antibodies, such as X-linked agammaglobulinemia.

Antibody tests may also yield false negative results in patients with X-linked agammaglobulinemia; other diagnostic tests should be used in such patients."

Dr. Bruton wrote to medical schools in the United States of America that had a pediatric service to ask if they had any such patients with agammaglobulinemia.

Immune deficiencies such as X-linked agammaglobulinemia, hypogammaglobulinemia (primary immune deficiencies), and acquired compromised immunity conditions (secondary immune deficiencies) featuring low antibody levels.

Mutations affecting Btk are the cause of X-linked agammaglobulinemia (XLA) in humans and X-linked immunodeficiency in mice.

Injections are also used to boost immunity in patients unable to produce gamma globulins naturally because of an immune deficiency, such as X-linked agammaglobulinemia and hyper IgM syndrome.

There is an increased incidence in people with Down Syndrome, Fanconi anemia, Bloom syndrome, Ataxia telangiectasia, X-linked agammaglobulinemia, and Severe combined immunodeficiency.

He also worked on X-linked agammaglobulinaemia.

Autosomal recessive agammaglobulinaemia (Swiss type)

X-linked agammaglobulinaemia (Bruton) (with growth hormone deficiency)

Positional cloning of the atk gene involved in X-linked agammaglobulinaemia (XLA).

Common variable agammaglobulinaemia (CVAgamma)

On the basis of this extensive similarity and our data presented below, we have called the gene represented by cDNA 14-6,atk (for agammaglobulinaemia tyrosine kinase).

X-linked agammaglobulinaemia (XLA) is a human immunodeficiency caused by failure of pre-B cells in the bone marrow to develop into circulating mature B cells.

We have shown here how a novel gene,atk,which is defective in individuals with X-linked agammaglobulinaemia, was isolated by cDNA direct selection using a YAC.
