Protocol Number:
03-H-0105
- Title:
The Determination Of Genetic Basis Of Immunodeficiency
- Number:
03-H-0105
- Summary:
This study will examine the role of hereditary factors in different forms of severe combined immunodeficiency (SCID).
Patients with immunodeficiencies may be eligible for this study. Candidates include:
- Patients with diminished numbers of T cells or NK cells or both, or
- Patients with normal T cell and NK cell numbers but diminished T cell, B cell, or NK cell function.
Relatives of patients will also be studied.
Participants will have blood samples collected for genetic analysis in studies related to SCID at the National Institutes of Health and other institutions.

- Eligibility Criteria:
INCLUSION CRITERIA:
Patients to be included are those with diminished numbers of T cells and/or NK cells or those who have normal T cell and NK cell numbers but diminished T cell, B cell, or NK cell function. Relatives of affected individuals may also be studied.
EXCLUSION CRITERIA:
Patients to be excluded are those with a known diagnosis or those who are related to an individual with an immunodeficiency of known cause. Other patients may be excluded based on the particular immunological phenotype or the inability of the laboratory to handle additional cases at a given time
