Specific Diseases In Which Immunodeficiency Is Common
by Dr. Shaw
Autism and PDD
Defects in all parts of the immune system are documented in children with autism. Studies done by Reed Warren Ph.D. at Utah State University, Sudhir Gupta M.D. PhD., a clinical immunologist at the University of California at Irvine Medical School, and others indicate most children with autism have substantial immune abnormality of some type. Reported defects include myeloperoixase deficiency, severe combined immunodeficiency, IgA deficiencies (partial and complete), IgG subclass deficiencies in 20%, and deficiencies in complement C4b.
In Gupta's study, 20% of the children with autism had a deficiency of IgA and 8% lacked it completely. Reed Warren and his colleagues also found that 20% of individuals with autism had low serum IgA compared with none of the normal individuals used as controls.
Concentrations of IL-12 and interferon gamma are much higher in the blood of children with autism than in normal children, indicating an immune activations, possibly due to adverse vaccine reactions. An optimal immune response to Candida infections necessitates a finely tuned balance of interferon gamma production; the dysregulation of the immune system, caused by IL-12-induced increases in gamma interferon, leads to increased Candida susceptibility in animals.
