20
Q

What gene on what chromosome is affected by X-linked Agammaglobulinemia?

A

BTK gene on X chromosome

Bruton Tyrosine Kinase

21
Q

Defect in BTK gene

A

X-linked Agammaglobulinemia

22
Q

What cells are affected and how with X-linked Agammaglobulinemia?

A

Pre-B cells can’t mature

23
Q

Those with X-linked Agammaglobulinemia’s risk for infection increases as?

A

Mother’s antibodies wane

24
Q

Hyper-IgM Syndrome has mutations where?

A

CD40/CD40L

25
Q

Mutations in CD40/CD40L

A

Hyper-IgM Syndrome

26
Q

What is the CD40/CD40L essential for?

A

T cells helping B cells class switch

27
Q

What mechanism is impaired with Hyper-IgM Syndrome?

A
T cells helping B cells class switch 
-- B cells unable to class switch due to mutations in CD40/CD40L
28
Q

What antibodies will be increased with Hyper-IgM Syndrome?

A

IgM

29
Q

Will the other antibodies by increased with Hyper-IgM Syndrome?

A

NO - they will be decreased

35
Q

What symptoms will those with CVID have?

A

Recurrent pulmonary/sinus infection
Anemia/thrombocytopenia

36
Q

IgA deficiency has decreased defense against?

A

Inhaled and Ingested pathogens

37
Q

38
Q

What serious condition is associated with IgA deficiency?

A

Transfusion - related Anaphylaxis

39
Q

What is Transfusion - related Anaphylaxis?

A

Anaphylaxis with transfusion of blood that contains IgA antibodies due to those with IgA deficiency not having seen them before

40
Q

What can prevent Transfusion - related Anaphylaxis?

A

Red cell washing
