Serum ceruloplasmin and immunoglobulins in retinitis pigmentosa patients

Thirty cases of retinitis pigmentosa were studied for serum ceruloplasmin levels and 27 cases of retinitis pigmentosa for serum immunoglobulin levels. No significant change was seen in serum ceruloplasmin levels as compared to normal control subjects, while a significant rise in levels of serum immunoglobulins was seen, which needs further experimental study to find the exact etiology.
