Quantitation of serum immunoglobulin M, G, A, D and E levels was carried out in Malaysians with Brugia malayi infections. Results showed highly elevated levels of IgM and IgE as well as moderately elevated levels of IgG. These were most significant in patients with tropical pulmonary eosinophilia or elephantiasis. Serum IgE levels were extremely high in microfilaraemic patients (6,060 +/- 3,958 IU ml) probably due to a constant antigenic stimulation by dead and dying microfilariae.
对感染马来布鲁线虫的马来西亚人进行了血清免疫球蛋白M、G、A、D和E水平的定量检测。结果显示,IgM和IgE水平大幅升高,IgG水平中度升高。这在热带肺嗜酸性粒细胞增多症或象皮肿患者中最为显著。微丝蚴血症患者的血清IgE水平极高(6,060 +/- 3,958国际单位/毫升),这可能是由于死亡和即将死亡的微丝蚴持续的抗原刺激所致。
