Immunodeficiency with increased immunoglobulin m [igm] - what does this mean

Immunodeficiency with increased immunoglobulin m (igm) is a condition in which the body's immune system is weakened and unable to fight off infections, resulting in an increase in the production of igm, an antibody produced by b cells to fight off invading pathogens. this can lead to recurrent infections, autoimmune diseases, and an increased risk of developing certain types of cancer.

What happens during the disease - immunodeficiency with increased immunoglobulin m [igm]

Immunodeficiency with increased immunoglobulin m is caused by an underlying genetic defect that affects the production of antibodies. this defect prevents the body from producing enough antibodies to fight off infections and other foreign invaders, resulting in a weakened immune system that is unable to effectively protect the body from disease. this can lead to frequent infections and other health complications.
