Overview

Hypergammaglobulinemia is a primary immunodeficiency disease with an elevated concentration of gamma globulins (immunoglobulins or antibodies).[1][2][3] The term "hypergammaglobulinemia" refers to the position of the excess of proteins after serum protein electrophoresis (found in the gammaglobulin region).[1] The majority of hypergammaglobulinemias are due to an excess of immunoglobulin M (IgM) because this is the default immunoglobulin type prior to class switching.[1] Hypergammaglobulinemias may also result from a deficiency in the other major types of immunoglobulins (IgA, IgE, and IgG).[1][4]

Classification

  • Hypergammaglobulinemia may be classified into the following:
  • Hyper IgM associated hypergammaglobulinemias are further classified into the following five types:[5][6]
Type Gene involved Mode of inheritance

Type 1

X-linked recessive

Type 2

  • Activation-Induced Cytidine Deaminase (AICDA) gene

Autosomal recessive

Type 3

  • CD40 gene

Autosomal recessive

Type 4

  • Not yet known

Type 5

  • Gene encoding Uracil-DNA glycosylase

Autosomal recessive
