Immunodeficiency 28; Imd28

Description

IMD28 is caused by autosomal recessive (AR) IFNGR2 deficiency, a rare molecular cause of susceptibility to mycobacterial disease. The clinical presentation of complete AR IFNGR2 deficiency resembles that of complete IFNGR1 deficiency (IMD27A ). The disease manifests early in life, with severe, often fatal, infection. The most commonly encountered pathogens include M. bovis bacillus Calmette-Guerin (BCG), M. avium, and M. fortuitum. Complete AR IFNGR2 deficiency is characterized by an undetectable cellular response to interferon-gamma (IFNG ). There is also a rare, partial form of AR IFNGR2 deficiency, reported in 1 child, who retained a residual cellular response to IFNG and presented with a relatively mild infection by M. bovis BCG and M. abscessus (review by Al-Muhsen and Casanova, 2008).
