Abstract

Aim: We identified a new CD19 deficient case who was a relative of the first CD19 deficient patient and lived in the same village These cases suggested that other patients with CD19 deficiency or carriers could be found in this village The aim of this study was to assess the warning signs of primary immunodeficiency and the CD19 molecule deficiency in this population Material and Method: The relatives of CD19 deficient patients and controls were examined for the warning signs of primary immunodeficiency using a questionnaire form Blood samples were taken from these subjects CD19 and CD21 expressions median fluorescent intensity MFI were analyzed by flowcytometry in these samples nbsp; nbsp; nbsp; Results: A total of 208 subjects 59 families 126 females 82 males including 129 children 9 5±3 7 years and 79 adults 37±13 years were evaluated A new case with CD19 deficiency was not detected There was at least one warning sign for immunodeficiency in 67 subjects 57 children and 10 adults CD19 median expression value was lower than 60 MFI value in 20 subjects which was known as in the carriers who were detected to have heterozygous mutation Conclusions: Our findings suggested that CD19 median expression might be a diagnostic tool for the subjects who have CD19 heterozygous mutations Mutation analyses are planned for the confirmation of CD19 heterozygous mutation in these subjects who have low CD19 median expression Turk Arch Ped 2009; 44: 127 30 Key words: A village screening CD19 deficiency CD19 median expression

CD19 molekül eksikliği: Bir köy taraması Orijinal Araştırma

Abstract

Amaç: CD19 eksikliğinin ilk kez tanımlandığı bir olgunun köyünde yaşayan ve akrabası olan bir olguda daha CD19 eksikliği tanımlandı Bu olgular bu köyde yaşayan başka olguların ve taşıyıcıların da olabileceğini düşündürdü Bu amaçla köy halkı immün yetersizlik düşündüren klinik bulgular ve CD19 molekül eksikliği yönünden değerlendirildi nbsp; Gereç ve Yöntem: CD19 eksikliği olgularının akrabaları ve kontrol grubu anket formları ile birincil immün yetersizlik hastalıklarının klinik belirtileri için sorgulandı Olgulardan alınan kan örneklerinde CD19 ve CD21 molekül varlığı akış sitometri ile incelendi Bulgular: Toplam 59 aileden 129 çocuk 9 5±3 7 yıl ve 79 yetişkin 37±13 yıl olmak üzere 208 olgu 126 kadın 82 erkek değerlendirildi Yeni bir CD19 eksikliği olgusu saptanmadı Anket formları ile 67 olguda 57 çocuk 10 yetişkin en az bir uyarıcı immün yetersizlik bulgusu vardı CD19 mediyan ekspresyon değeri MFI 20 olguda CD19 yönünden heterozigot taşıyıcı olan bireylerden elde edilen 60 MFI değerinin altındaydı nbsp;Çıkarımlar: Bulgularımız CD19 eksikliği heterozigot “taşıyıcılığı” açısından CD19 taşıyan B lenfosit oranının değil CD19 mediyan ekspresyon düşüklüğünün yol gösterici olduğunu düşündürmüştür CD19 mediyan ekspresyon değerine göre taşıyıcı oldukları belirlenen bu olguların mutasyon tetkiklerinin yapılarak taşıyıcı olduklarının doğrulanması planlanmıştır Türk Ped Arş 2009; 44: 127 30 Anahtar kelimeler: CD19 mediyan ekspresyonu CD19 molekül eksikliği köy taraması
