Abstract

Selective deficiency of immunoglobulin A (IgA) is the most frequent primary hypogammaglobulinemia. As some IgA-deficient patients have IgA antibodies in their plasma which may cause anaphylactic reactions, blood centers usually maintain a list of IgAdeficient BLOOD DONORs to prepare compatible blood components.In this study we determined the incidence of selective IGA DEFICIENCY (SIgAD) in normal adult IRANian population. 13022 normal IRANian BLOOD DONORs were included in this study. The assay which we used was adapted to the manual pipetting system and ELISA reader was used for screening. Other classes of immunoglobulins (G, M), as well as secretory IgA and IgG subclasses were tested in IgA deficient cases by ELISA. SPSS was used for statistical analysis. Among 13022 studied cases, 11608 BLOOD DONORs were males (89.14%) and 1414 were females (10.86%). Their mean (±SD) age and weight were 38.5±11 years and 82±12Kg respectively. Twenty of the screened samples were found by means of ELISA to be IgAdeficient 0ess than 5mg/dl), (frequency; 1:651). The data could indicate a compensation for IGA DEFICIENCY by serum IgM in one of our IgA deficient cases (patient 5). We observed a correlation between IgG3 and serum IgA in deficient cases (r=0.498, P=0.025). Our results indicate that in present study the prevalence of S IgA D is in agreement with data from other Caucasians populations (from 1:300 to 1:700).In conclusion, Selective IGA DEFICIENCY could be almost asymptomatic in most cases in general population. Our study suggests that; due to high frequency of IGA DEFICIENCY in IRAN, it seems necessary to measure IgA levels for every BLOOD DONOR and blood recipient to find IgA deficient cases.
