Hypoimmunoglobulinaemia with deficiency of pre-B cells
Abstract
No pre-B cells were found in the marrows of two girls with congenital antibody deficiency who lacked B cells. The presence of variable T-lymphocyte defects in these and thymoma patients lacking pre-B cells favours a metabolic aetiology rather than selective failure of a single cell series.
