We analyzed platelet-associated antigens from a hemophilia B patient with human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1)-related thrombocytopenia. Two bands appeared at 31,000 and 37,000 daltons in the platelet lysate after reaction with autologous serum in SDS-PAGE and Western blots. The band at 37,000 daltons was obtained using anti-herpes simplex type 1 (HSV-1) rabbit antiserum. Doublet bands at 36,000 and 37,000 daltons also appeared after reaction with HSV-1 seropositive human serum. The band at 31,000 daltons appeared after reaction with anti-HIV-1 rabbit serum. These results suggest that the platelet-associated antigens in this patient are components of both HSV-1 and HIV-1 antigens. In addition, acyclovir decreased his PAIgG level and increased his platelet count, and zidovudine increased his platelet count. Thus, we concluded that each of the platelet-associated antigens is partially responsible for the thrombocytopenia by causing deposition of immune complexes in this patient.

D007074 Immunoglobulin G The major immunoglobulin isotype class in normal human serum. There are several isotype subclasses of IgG, for example, IgG1, IgG2A, and IgG2B. Gamma Globulin, 7S,IgG,IgG Antibody,Allerglobuline,IgG(T),IgG1,IgG2,IgG2A,IgG2B,IgG3,IgG4,Immunoglobulin GT,Polyglobin,7S Gamma Globulin,Antibody, IgG,GT, Immunoglobulin
D007105 Immune Complex Diseases Group of diseases mediated by the deposition of large soluble complexes of antigen and antibody with resultant damage to tissue. Besides SERUM SICKNESS and the ARTHUS REACTION, evidence supports a pathogenic role for immune complexes in many other IMMUNE SYSTEM DISEASES including GLOMERULONEPHRITIS, systemic lupus erythematosus (LUPUS ERYTHEMATOSUS, SYSTEMIC) and POLYARTERITIS NODOSA.

D006561 Herpes Simplex A group of acute infections caused by herpes simplex virus type 1 or type 2 that is characterized by the development of one or more small fluid-filled vesicles with a raised erythematous base on the skin or mucous membrane. It occurs as a primary infection or recurs due to a reactivation of a latent infection. (Dorland, 27th ed.) Herpes Simplex Virus Infection
