S Yokoyama, and T Hayashi, and Y Yoshimura, and K Irimada, and T Saito, and T Akiba, and S Tsuchiya

Severe combined immunodeficiency disease with adenosine deaminase deficiency was reported of a 1-year-2-month-old boy, who showed clinical picture of pulmonary candidiasis. The serum immunoglobulin level and absolute lymphocyte count were markedly diminished. But immunological study revealed both T- and B-cell surface markers on the peripheral lymphocytes, in spite of complete deficiency of both systems.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D007136 Immunoglobulins Multi-subunit proteins which function in IMMUNITY. They are produced by B LYMPHOCYTES from the IMMUNOGLOBULIN GENES. They are comprised of two heavy (IMMUNOGLOBULIN HEAVY CHAINS) and two light chains (IMMUNOGLOBULIN LIGHT CHAINS) with additional ancillary polypeptide chains depending on their isoforms. The variety of isoforms include monomeric or polymeric forms, and transmembrane forms (B-CELL ANTIGEN RECEPTORS) or secreted forms (ANTIBODIES). They are divided by the amino acid sequence of their heavy chains into five classes (IMMUNOGLOBULIN A; IMMUNOGLOBULIN D; IMMUNOGLOBULIN E; IMMUNOGLOBULIN G; IMMUNOGLOBULIN M) and various subclasses.

D008214 Lymphocytes White blood cells formed in the body's lymphoid tissue. The nucleus is round or ovoid with coarse, irregularly clumped chromatin while the cytoplasm is typically pale blue with azurophilic (if any) granules.
