Abstract

The fractions of serum proteins, the levels of serum immunoglobulins and the positive rate of HBs Ag were investigated in Korean patients with Down's syndrome. Mean concentrations (g/dl) of serum protein, albumin, a1,-globulin fraction, a2-globulin fraction, $\beta$-globulin fraction and Y-globulin fraction were 7.80$\pm$1.44, 3.89$\pm$0.74, 0.26$\pm$0.09, 0.80$\pm$0. 18, 1.00토0.29 and 1.85$\pm$0.64, respectively. Mean concentrations(mg/dl) of IgG, IgA and IgM were 1,682.17$\pm$600.26, 247.39$\pm$180.86 and 170.87$\pm$79.90, respectively. The positive rate of HBs Ag was 21.74% These results revealed higher levels of Y-globulin fraction, IgG and positive rate of HBs Ag in patients with Down's syndrome than in normal population.
