  • Current Perspectives on Primary Immunodeficiency Diseases

    Current Perspectives on Primary Immunodeficiency Diseases

    Clinical & Developmental Immunology, June–December 2006; 13(2–4): 223–259 Current perspectives on primary immunodeficiency diseases ARVIND KUMAR, SUZANNE S. TEUBER, & M. ERIC GERSHWIN Division of Rheumatology, Allergy and Clinical Immunology, Department of Internal Medicine, University of California at Davis School of Medicine, Davis, CA, USA Abstract Since the original description of X-linked agammaglobulinemia in 1952, the number of independent primary immunodeficiency diseases (PIDs) has expanded to more than 100 entities. By definition, a PID is a genetically determined disorder resulting in enhanced susceptibility to infectious disease. Despite the heritable nature of these diseases, some PIDs are clinically manifested only after prerequisite environmental exposures but they often have associated malignant, allergic, or autoimmune manifestations. PIDs must be distinguished from secondary or acquired immunodeficiencies, which are far more common. In this review, we will place these immunodeficiencies in the context of both clinical and laboratory presentations as well as highlight the known genetic basis.

We report an ICL case for which T lymphocyte phenotype and its costimulatory molecules expression was analyzed both ex vivo and after overnight stimulation through CD3/CD28.

    Pulmonary Complications of Primary Immunodeficiencies

    PAEDIATRIC RESPIRATORY REVIEWS (2004) 5(Suppl A), S225–S233 Pulmonary complications of primary immunodeficiencies Rebecca H. Buckley° Departments of Pediatrics and Immunology, Duke University Medical Center, Durham, NC 27710, USA Summary In the fifty years since Ogden Bruton discovered agammaglobulinemia, more than 100 additional immunodeficiency syndromes have been described. These disorders may involve one or more components of the immune system, including T, B, and NK lymphocytes; phagocytic cells; and complement proteins. Most are recessive traits, some of which are caused by mutations in genes on the X chromosome, others in genes on autosomal chromosomes. Until the past decade, there was little insight into the fundamental problems underlying a majority of these conditions. Many of the primary immunodeficiency diseases have now been mapped to specific chromosomal locations, and the fundamental biologic errors have been identified in more than 3 dozen. Within the past decade the molecular bases of 7 X-linked immunodeficiency disorders have been reported: X-linked immunodeficiency with Hyper IgM, X-linked lymphoproliferative disease, X-linked agammaglobulinemia, X-linked severe combined immunodeficiency, the Wiskott–Aldrich syndrome, nuclear factor úB essential modulator (NEMO or IKKg), and the immune dysregulation polyendocrinopathy (IPEX) syndrome. The abnormal genes in X-linked chronic granulomatous disease (CGD) and properdin deficiency had been identified several years earlier. In addition, there are now many autosomal recessive immunodeficiencies for which the molecular bases have been discovered. These new advances will be reviewed, with particular emphasis on the pulmonary complications of some of these diseases. In some cases there are unique features of lung abnormalities in specific defects.
