Brief Summary
This study will determine the biochemical and genetic causes of inherited immune diseases affecting lymphocyte homeostasis. Lymphocytes are a type of white blood cell that fights infections. Normally,...

This protocol is designed to screen patients with suspected or identified genetic diseases of immune cell homeostasis, reflecting abnormalities in programmed cell death, survival, development, activat...
Eligibility Criteria
Inclusion
- INCLUSION CRITERIA:
- Patients known to have or suspected of having an inherited immune cell homeostasis, programmed cell death susceptibility syndrome, lymphocyte developmental block, or defective immune cell effector functions will be eligible for enrollment. We will enroll
- patients with suspected disease if the investigator agrees that there is a high index of suspicion. Blood relatives of enrolled patients will be eligible for enrollment. There will be no limit as to age, sex, race, or disability.
- EXCLUSION CRITERIA:
- Severely debilitated health status or poor venous access may preclude obtaining adequate specimens for analysis. The minimum weight for infants on this protocol is 3 kg because of the limits of maximal acceptable blood draw volumes and minimum requirement for core laboratory tests would exceed the acceptable volume.
