Leukocyte Adhesion Deficiency Type 1 Presenting as Leukemoid Reaction
The hallmarks of leukocyte adhesion deficiency (LAD) are defects in the leukocyte adhesion process, marked leukocytosis and recurrent infections. These molecular and clinical manifestations result from an impaired step in the inflammatory process, namely, the emigration of leukocytes from the blood vessels to sites of infection, which requires adhesion of leukocytes to the endothelium. Over las...
متن کاملNeutrophil Adhesion in Leukocyte Adhesion
We have previously reported a newly discovered congenital disorder of neutrophil adhesion, leukocyte adhesion deficiency syndrome type 2 (LAD II). The clinical manifestations of this syndrome are similar to those seen in the classic leukocyte adhesion deficiency syndrome, now designated type 1 (LAD I), but the two syndromes differ in the molecular basis of their adhesion defects. LAD I is cause...
متن کاملOsteomyelitis in leukocyte adhesion deficiency type 1 syndrome.
Leukocyte adhesion deficiency type 1 (LAD-1) is a rare, inherited immunodeficiency that affects one per million people yearly and usually presents with recurrent, indolent bacterial infections of the skin, mouth, and respiratory tract and impaired pus formation and wound healing. A 13-year-old girl diagnosed LAD-I at the age of 7 years was brought to the Immunology, Asthma and Allergy Research ...
متن کاملLeukocyte adhesion deficiency syndrome: a controversy solved.
Sadly, mistakes of nature are often our greatest learning tools. Such is the case with the recent description by three independent groups of the molecular etiology of leukocyte adhesion deficiency (LAD) syndrome III.1–3 The discovery that mutations in kindlin-3 are responsible for this rare genetic disorder teaches us a great deal about how leukocytes regulate adhesion and trafficking through t...
