azathioprine and Agammaglobulinemia

azathioprine has been researched along with Agammaglobulinemia in 26 studies

Azathioprine: An immunosuppressive agent used in combination with cyclophosphamide and hydroxychloroquine in the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis. According to the Fourth Annual Report on Carcinogens (NTP 85-002, 1985), this substance has been listed as a known carcinogen. (Merck Index, 11th ed)
azathioprine : A thiopurine that is 6-mercaptopurine in which the mercapto hydrogen is replaced by a 1-methyl-4-nitroimidazol-5-yl group. It is a prodrug for mercaptopurine and is used as an immunosuppressant, prescribed for the treatment of inflammatory conditions and after organ transplantation and also for treatment of Crohn's didease and MS.

Agammaglobulinemia: An immunologic deficiency state characterized by an extremely low level of generally all classes of gamma-globulin in the blood.

" Under immunosuppressive treatment with azathioprine and steroids, the patient developed cytomegalovirus (CMV) enteritis which was triggered by therapy-induced leukopenia."3.75[A 55-year-old woman with thymoma and hypogammaglobulinemia (Good syndrome), ulcerative colitis, and cytomegalovirus infection]. ( Baba, HA; Gerken, G; Kahraman, A; Maldonado-Lopez, E; Miller, M; Treichel, U, 2009)
" Subsequent to cadaveric renal transplant and 8 years of immunosuppressive treatment with prednisone and azathioprine, the patient developed multiple life-threatening infections."3.67Hypogammaglobulinemia in a renal transplant recipient with antiglomerular basement membrane disease. ( Hasbargen, J; Rickman, W; Smolin, MR, 1988)
"Bronchiectasis is characterized by abnormal, permanent and irreversible dilatation of the bronchi, usually responsible for daily symptoms and frequent respiratory complications."1.42Bronchiectasis diagnosed after renal transplantation: a retrospective multicenter study. ( Anglicheau, D; Babinet, F; Caillard, S; Colosio, C; Deslée, G; Dury, S; Essig, M; Etienne, I; Launois, C; Lebargy, F; Merieau, E; Perotin-Collard, JM; Rieu, P; Rivalan, J; Subra, JF; Thervet, E; Toubas, O, 2015)
"We report on two brothers with hyperimmunoglobulinemia D (patient 1: serum immunoglobulin D [IgD] concentration initially 61 IU/ml, later on 340 IU/ml; patient 2: serum IgD concentration 144 IU/ml; normal <100 IU/ml, 97th centile) and periodic fever syndrome (HIDS)."1.35B cell cytopenia in two brothers with hyper-IgD and periodic fever syndrome.
