Adenosine deaminase deficiency: a review [PDF]
Adenosine deaminase (ADA) deficiency leads to an accumulation of toxic purine degradation by-products, most potently affecting lymphocytes, leading to adenosine deaminase-deficient severe combined immunodeficiency.

Deficiency of Adenosine Deaminase 2 [PDF]
Adenosine deaminase 2 (ADA2) deficiency is an autosomal recessively inherited autoinflammatory disorder caused by loss-of-function mutations in the ADA2 gene. Although the pathogenesis involves the triggering of a proinflammatory cascade due to increased

The ADA*2 allele of the adenosine deaminase gene (20q13.11) and recurrent spontaneous abortions: an age-dependent association [PDF]
OBJECTIVE: Adenosine deaminase acts on adenosine and deoxyadenosine metabolism and modulates the immune response. The adenosine deaminase G22A polymorphism (20q.11.33) influences the level of adenosine deaminase enzyme expression, which seems to play a ...
