a case of probable mhc class ii deficiency with disseminated bcgitis

چکیده
major histocompatibility complex (mhc) class ii deficiency is a primary immunodeficiency disease characterized by abnormality of mhc class ii molecules surface expression on peripheral blood lymphocytes and monocytes. clinical manifestations include extreme susceptibility to viral, bacterial, and fungal infections but the immunodeficiency is not as severe as scid (severe combined immunodeficiency), as evidenced by failure to develop disseminated infection after bcg vaccination. therefore, mhc ii deficiency with bcgosis, that is disseminated bcgitis, is not reported commonly. we report an interesting case of bcgosis after vaccination that was diagnosed to have probable mhc ii deficiency.

Despite the long history of worldwide use of bacillus Calmette-Guerin (BCG) vaccine, a wide spectrum of adverse reactions has been observed in a small proportion of immunized infants. The most severe complication is disseminated BCGitis, often fatal but extremely rare and considered to be a result of host immunodeficiency. At present, polymerase chain reaction test, CT scan, ultrasound, X-rays ...

MHC class II deficiency has proven to be an excellent model to study transcription regulation of MHC genes and T cell development. Cell lines established from MHC class II deficient patients have been of great value for the identification of proteins necessary for MHC expression and their study has resulted in the identification of a common regulatory pathway for MHC class II and class I genes....

MHC class II tetramers have emerged as an important tool for characterization of the specificity and phenotype of CD4 T cell immune responses, useful in a large variety of disease and vaccine studies. Issues of specific T cell frequency, biodistribution, and avidity, coupled with the large genetic diversity of potential class II restriction elements, require targeted experimental design. Transl...
