A case of severe combined immunodeficiency presenting with CMV pneumonia
A five month-old girl was admitted in Ali Asghar Children’s Hospital with a history of three months of fever, cough and dyspnea that her symptoms have exacerbated since two weeks before admission. She was the first child of the family born to consanguineous parents. She was clinically healthy in the past and had gained weight normally and undergone vaccination program with no complication unti...
متن کاملSevere combined immunodeficiency presented with septic arthritis: A case report
Severe combined immunodeficiency is a rare, fatal syndrome of diverse genetic cause in which there is combined absence of T-lymphocyte and B-lymphocyte function (and in many cases also natural killer, or NK lymphocyte function). These defects lead to extreme susceptibility to serious infections. Without intervention, the T and B-cell dysfunction usually results in severe infection and death in ...
متن کاملTrisomy X in a female member of a family with X linked severe combined immunodeficiency: implications for carrier diagnosis.
We describe a family affected by X linked severe combined immunodeficiency (SCIDX1) in which genetic prediction of carrier status was made using X chromosome inactivation studies together with limited genetic linkage analysis. Linkage studies in this family showed a confusing pattern of inheritance for the X chromosome. A female with a random pattern of X chromosome inactivation in her T cells ...
متن کاملStudy on KAL1 Gene Mutations in Idiopathic Hypogonadotropic Hypogonadism Patients with X-Linked Recessive Inheritance
Idiopathic hypogonadotropic hypogonadism (IHH) is a condition caused by low doses of hypothalamic gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) leading to absence or incomplete sexual maturation. One of the disorders leading to IHH is Kallmann syndrome which is characterized by GnRH deficiency with anosmia or hyposmia. This disorder generally occurs as a hereditary syndrome with X-linked recessive inhe...
متن کاملInterleukin-4 signaling in B lymphocytes from patients with X-linked severe combined immunodeficiency.
Interleukin-4 (IL-4) is an important cytokine for B and T lymphocyte function and mediates its effects via a receptor that contains gammac. B cells derived from patients with X-linked severe combined immunodeficiency (X-SCID) are deficient in gammac and provide a useful model in which to dissect the role of this subunit in IL-4-mediated signaling. We found that although IL-4 stimulation of X-SC...
