| The immunoglobulin E (IgE) level was mildly elevated at 233 U/ml. Saxon, Kepley, and colleagues constructed GE2 by combining Fc[epsilon]RI and Fc[gamma]RIIb, which are receptor binding regions of immunoglobulin E (IgE) and immunoglobulin G, respectively. Clinically, it can simulate a neoplasm, and most patients have peripheral blood eosinophilia and elevated serum immunoglobulin E (IgE) levels. |
