Genetics of severe combined immunodeficiency
摘要
Abstract
Severe Combined Immunodeficiency (SCID) is an inherited group of rare
life-threatening disorders due to the defect in T cell development and function. Clinical manifestations are characterised by recurrent and severe bacterial
viral
and fungal opportunistic infections that start from early infancy period. Haematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) is the treatment of choice. The pattern of inheritance of SCID may be X-linked or autosomal recessive. Though the diagnosis of SCID is usually established by flow cytometry-based tests
genetic diagnosis is often needed for genetic counselling
prognostication
and modification of pre-transplant chemotherapeutic agents. This review aims to highlight the genetic aspects of SCID.
