The infectious diarrhea in AIDS is principaly due to Cryptosporidium. The study of the inflammatory and humoral immunity proteins reveal a high exudative enteropathy associated with an IgA, IgG and IgM intestinal immune response. However, this barrier of defence is not sufficient to eradicate the infectious agent.

D007075 Immunoglobulin M A class of immunoglobulin bearing mu chains (IMMUNOGLOBULIN MU-CHAINS). IgM can fix COMPLEMENT. The name comes from its high molecular weight and originally was called a macroglobulin. Gamma Globulin, 19S,IgM,IgM Antibody,IgM1,IgM2,19S Gamma Globulin,Antibody, IgM

D003967 Diarrhea An increased liquidity or decreased consistency of FECES, such as running stool. Fecal consistency is related to the ratio of water-holding capacity of insoluble solids to total water, rather than the amount of water present.
