[Clinical studies of the possible antimycotic effects of the Helix pomatia lectin anti-AHP].

In a pilot study the antimycetic effect of the lectin anti-AHP in 40 patients suffering from different mycoses was studied. The treatment with an aqueous solution of anti-AHP resulted in a complete healing in 15 of 40 cases and in 16 patients in a remarkable improvement, whereas in 9 cases such an effect has not been observed. The mode of operations remains still unknown, possible actions of anti-AHP on fungi and stratum corneum are discussed.

Administration, Topical

[Fatal course of basalioma terebrans caused by brain abscess with brain compression and hemorrhagic anemia].

Report on a 79 years old female patient with a giant basalioma terebrans which has been growing for 15 years at the forehead. Its rapid exophytic and invasive growth at the final stage resulted in an extend destruction of the squamofrontal bone with infiltration into the dura mater. In consequence of this brain abscess with brain compression and a high grade hemorrhagic anemia inducing at last the fatal outcome were developed.

[Immunopathogenetic, endocrinologic and therapeutic problems of EMO syndrome. Observations based on a case report].

The EMO-syndrome (thyroid acropachy) consists of the triad of exophthalmus, circumscribed pretibial myxedema and hypertrophic osteoarthropathy. The clinical picture is seen in thyroid disorders, as a rule occurring in hyperthyroidism, rarely in hypothyroid or euthyroid states. Our 47 year old female patient showed a hyperthyroidism in the beginning. The thyrostatic treatment resulted in a euthyroid stage. Serum antibodies against microsomal thyroid gland antigen with high titers were detected. The immunosuppressive treatment resulted in a titer reduction, but not in an improvement of the disease. The pathogenetical importance of the thyroid stimulating immunoglobulins and the role of aggressive and destructive antibodies against thyroid gland for the development of EMO-syndrome are discussed.

Autoantibodies

[Lymphocyte function in patients with anti-D(Rh0) antibodies].

The behaviour of humoral and cellular immunity as well as that of cells bearing Fc receptors was investigated in persons with anti-D antibodies. Peripheral lymphocytes could be identified in 6 of 26 examined test persons particularly sensitized against the stroma of Rh-positive erythrocytes. There was no relation to the anti-D titre. The parameters of humoral immunity showed no correlation to the anti-D titre. In 37 per cent of the persons with anti-D antibodies, which were produced "naturally" or artificially, an increased content of IgE could be proved in the serum. In each case, anti-D formation apparently leads to an increase of cells bearing Fc receptors, which can be recognized by the increased number of EA rosettes. A relation to the anti-D titre did not exist. None of the immunological test methods used is suitable for predicting the success of an artificial immunization for the purpose of gaining high titre anti-D antibodies.

[Paraproteins in dermatological patients (author's transl)].

Report on paraprotein-cases in a dermatological totality of patients during a six years period. Among 860 seras we found 22 cases with paraproteins. Except IgE-paraprotein all other paraproteinclasses were found in their natural multidy. In 2 cases we saw Bence-Jones-protein, in an other case a very rare combination of IgD-paraprotein with Amyloidosis cutis nodularis atrophicans Gottron. Diseases with sure or probable autoimmune background, i.e. diseases of the vessels with a possible dependence from cold and malignant tumours were on the top of paraproteinemia. 4 of 22 patients died during a 3 years' period after detection of paraprotein. Common clinical and paraclinical signs and symptoms of paraproteinoses are collected in a special table.
