Glomerular localization of circulating antiglobulin activity in essential mixed cryoglobulinemia with glomerulonephritis.

Only registered users can translate articles

Kidney biopsy samples from 27 patients with essential mixed cryoglobulinemia of the IgG-IgM(k) type and glomerulonephritis were studied to assess whether glomerular immunodeposits display antiglobulin (AG) activity similar to that of serum cryo-IgM. A preparation of heat-aggregated human IgG (FAIgG)

Complement activation and impaired capacity to solubilize immune complexes or to prevent their formation in essential mixed cryoglobulinemia.

Only registered users can translate articles

The complement profile, the immune complex solubilizing capacity (ICSC), the immune complex precipitation inhibition capacity (ICPIC), the presence of cryoprecipitable material, and the presence of immune-aggregate- and non-immune-aggregate mediated C1q-binding activity was assessed in serum samples

Effectiveness of cryofiltration and mizoribine combination with oral steroid therapy in a patient with membranoproliferative glomerulonephritis due to essential cryoglobulinemia.

Only registered users can translate articles

A 65-year-old male patient with nephrotic syndrome was admitted to our hospital due to worsening systemic edema and purpura on the limbs. He had an impaired renal function, low serum complement level, and elevated rheumatoid factor level. He was positive for cryoglobulin (monoclonal IgM-κ and

Immune complexes and complement profile in essential mixed cryoglobulinemia before and after plasma exchange.

Only registered users can translate articles

Five patients affected by essential mixed cryoglobulinemia (EMC) with renal involvement unresponsive to high doses of corticosteroids, have been treated with 16 plasma exchanges (PE). The plasma removed at each apheresis was 1652 +/- 416 ml. The following data were evaluated before and after PE:

Multiple myeloma, cryoglobulinemia and xanthomatosis. Distinct clinical and biochemical syndromes in two patients.

Only registered users can translate articles

Studies were carried out in two patients with multiple myeloma (immunoglobulin G, [IgG], K light chain), cryoglobulinemia and xanthomatosis with clinical features and lipid transport abnormalities which were quite different. One patient had nodular xanthomatosis and lipemia with delayed triglyceride

Cryofiltration apheresis for treatment of cryoglobulinemia associated with hepatitis C.

Only registered users can translate articles

Cryofiltration apheresis (CA) is a specific therapy for treatment of patients with cryoglobulinemia. We evaluated the safety and efficacy of CA in patients with mixed cryoglobulinemia associated with hepatitis C. As reported previously, the Cryoglobulin Filter comprises a membrane module inside a

Cryoglobulin/albumin complexes in a patient with severe autoimmune syndrome.

Only registered users can translate articles

We describe the case of a 30-year-old man with a severe autoimmune disease characterized by cryoglobulinaemia, pulmonary hypertension, Raynaud's phenomenon, lymphadenopathy, and glomerulonephritis. Despite initial remission following autologous stem cell transplantation, his disease relapsed and he

[Acquired von Willebrand's disease, cryoglobulinemia and pseudoanalbuminemia in monoclonal dysglobulinemia].

Only registered users can translate articles

The authors report an exceptional case of complex monoclonal dysglobulinaemia characterized by cryoglobulinaemia, pseudoanalbuminaemia and acquired type 1 Von Willebrand's disease. All these biological abnormalities are consecutive to the formation of molecular complexes in vivo. These complexes

[The characteristics of the clinical course of nephritis in patients with cryoglobulinemia].

Cryoglobulins were measured spectrophotometrically in the sera of 40 patients with renal diseases. 18 of them had chronic glomerulonephritis, 14 lupus nephritis and 8 nephritis. 20 patients with high concentration of cryoglobulins (100-600 micrograms/ml) exhibited high incidence of nephrotic

Chronic hepatitis C virus infection: prevalence of cryoglobulinemia and renal affection in the Egyptian patients.

Only registered users can translate articles

The association between mixed cryoglobulinemia (MC), chronic hepatitis C virus (CHC), and renal insufficiency was documented. This paper aimed to determine the prevalence of cryoglobulinemia (CG), and renal affection drug-naïve Egyptian patients suffering from CHC-in a cross-sectional study So, 53

Liver involvement in essential mixed cryoglobulinemia.

Only registered users can translate articles

Twenty-one of 30 patients with essential mixed cryoglobulinemia (EMC) had evidence of liver involvement. The liver disease was characterized by the absence of clinical symptoms, hepatosplenomegaly, mild elevation of enzymes, abnormal BSP retention and low albumin levels. Histology, available in 12

Heat-insoluble cryoglobulin in a patient with essential type I cryoglobulinemia and massive cryoglobulin-occlusive glomerulonephritis.

Only registered users can translate articles

We report a case of type I essential cryoglobulinemia with massive cryoglobulin-occlusive glomerulonephritis, in which the clinical course and the physical characteristics of the cryoglobulin were unusual. Nine years before appearance of cryoglobulin, this 54-year-old man noted edema and purpura of

Intensive tandem cryofiltration apheresis and hemodialysis to treat a patient with severe calciphylaxis, cryoglobulinemia, and end-stage renal disease.

Only registered users can translate articles

This is the first report on tandem cryofiltration apheresis (CFA) and hemodialysis (HD). A 44 year old white man with Type II mixed cryoglobulinemia, hepatitis C virus (HCV), severe skin lesions, and end-stage renal disease (ESRD) on maintenance hemodialysis was air-transferred for CFA, which is

Phase separation in solutions of monoclonal antibodies and the effect of human serum albumin.

Only registered users can translate articles

We report the observation of liquid-liquid phase separation in a solution of human monoclonal antibody, IgG2, and the effects of human serum albumin, a major blood protein, on this phase separation. We find a significant reduction of phase separation temperature in the presence of albumin, and a

Defective leukocyte function-related cryoprecipitable protein in cryoglobulinemia.

Only registered users can translate articles

Cryoprecipitable proteins (CPP), purified from plasmas removed during plasmapheresis treatment of patients with type II and type III cryoglobulinemia (CG), were evaluated in vitro for their effect on normal leukocyte function. CPP reduced normal mononuclear cell blastogenesis and polymorphonuclear
