In 1947 Lerner and Watson showed cold-precipitable proteins to be gammaglobulins and called them ‘cryoglobulins’ and the corresponding clinical condition ‘cryoglobulinemia’. Meltzer and Franklin in 1966 provided an accurate description of the typical clinical symptoms associated with cryoglobulinemia, showed that they consisted of two different globulin components and, because of the ignorance on its etiology, called this clinical condition ‘essential mixed cryoglobulinemia’. For almost 20 years progress has been rather slow in this field, but when at the end of the ‘80s it finally became possible to detect the occurrence in the serum of antibodies to the hepatitis C virus (HCV), many groups in Europe and the United States almost simultaneously reported that a high proportion of ‘essential’ cryoglobulinemias are in fact associated with HCV infection. This hallmark has resulted in a new impetus and great enthusiasm in carrying out new researches made p | 出版日期 | Book 20121st edition | 关键词 | Autoimmunity; Cryoglobulinemia; HCV; Immune Complex Diseases; Malignant Lymphoma; hepatology; infectious d | 版次 | 1 | doi | https://doi.org/10.1007/978-88-470-1705-4 | isbn_softcover | 978-88-470-5581-0 | isbn_ebook | 978-88-470-1705-4 | copyright | Springer-Verlag Italia 2012 |
