Cryoglobulins are classified as Type I, monoclonal immunoglobulins; Type II, immune complexes involving immunoglobulins with antibody activity against polyclonal immunoglobulins; or Type III, immune complexes involving polyclonal immunoglobulins; in most cases, these are globulin-antiglobulin immune complexes like type II complexes. Types I and II occur in plasma cell dyscrasias and lymphoproliferative disorders Types II and III occur in autoimmune disease such as rheumatoid arthritis, systemic lupus erythematosus and Sjogren's syndrome. 2, record 1, English, - cryoglobulin

On distingue les cryoglobulines monoclonales des cryoglobulines mixtes, de type IgM-IgG où, en général, l’IgG est l’antigène et l’IgM un anticorps anti-IgG (cette IgM pouvant être monoclonale ou non). 2, record 1, French, - cryoglobuline

The plasma cell disorders are characterized by the secretion of electrophoretically and immunologically homogeneous (monoclonal) proteins. Each monoclonal protein (M-protein, myeloma protein, or paraprotein) consists of two heavy (H) polypeptide chains of the same class and subclass and two light (L) polypeptide chains of the same type. 1, record 2, English, - paraprotein

La paraprotéine est mise en évidence sur l'électrophorèse des protéines, son caractère monoclonal est reconnu grâce à l'immunoélectrophorèse. Parfois il s’agit d’une cryoglobuline, soit polyclonal(cryoglobuline mixte), soit monoclonal. Ces paraprotéines peuvent se rencontrer dans le cadre : d’une gammapathie monoclonale de cause inconnue [...] d’un myélome multiple [...] d’une macroglobulinémie de Waldenström [...] 1, record 2, French, - paraprot%C3%A9ine
