Abstract
Sera from ten of sixteen patients with known Gaucher’s disease were found to have immunoglobulin abnormalities. Of these, four patients had "monoclonal" IgG type K protein increases. The possible pathogenic roles of lipid accumulation and reticuloendothelial hyperplasia are discussed.This publication has 7 references indexed in Scilit:
