متن کاملT cell depleted haploidentical bone marrow transplantation for the treatment of children with severe combined immunodeficiency.
Severe combined immunodeficiency (SCID) is fatal in early childhood if unrecognized and if not treated. The aim was to determine the efficacy of T cell depleted bone marrow transplantation (TCD BMT) in the treatment of children with SCID. Eleven children diagnosed with SCID received histocompatible related donor bone marrow transplantation--HRD BMT (group I). Thirty seven children diagnosed wit...
متن کاملEquine Severe Combined Immunodeficiency
Severe Combined Immunodeficiency (SCID) is a disease with a genetic background in Arabian horses and crossbreeds with Arabians. The disease has been known and documented since the 1970’s and was early suggested to have an autosomal recessive mode of inheritance. Foals that are affected with SCID lack production of both B and T lymphocytes and consequently die from secondary diseases within a sh...
