A Review of Chronic Granulomatous Disease [PDF]
Chronic granulomatous disease (CGD) is a primary immunodeficiency caused by defects in any of the five subunits of the NADPH oxidase complex responsible for the respiratory burst in phagocytic leukocytes.

Chronic Granulomatous Disease [PDF]
Chronic granulomatous disease is a clinical condition that stems from inactivating mutations in NOX2 and its auxiliary proteins. Together, these proteins form the phagocyte NADPH oxidase enzyme that generates superoxide. Superoxide (O2ċ-) and its reduced product hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) give rise to several additional reactive oxygen species (ROS ...

Chronic granulomatous disease (CGD) was first described in the 1950s and has become a paradigm for genetic neutrophil diseases. It is characterized by recurrent infections with a narrow spectrum of bacteria and fungi as well as a common set of inflammatory complications most notably including inflammatory bowel disease. Over the last half century major

Chronic granulomatous disease [PDF]
Abstract Chronic granulomatous disease is a hereditable disorder in which polymorphs show diminished capacity for killing bacteria. Defective bactericidal activity results in protracted infection. The lesions of chronic granulomatous disease may affect all systems of the body.

Chronic granulomatous disease [PDF]
Chronic granulomatous disease (CGD) is a rare congenital immunodeficiency characterized by recurrent bacterial and fungal infections as well as granuloma formation. The manifestations of this disease can involve single or multiple organ systems. The lungs are the most commonly affected organ; however, lymphatic, hepatic, skeletal, gastrointestinal ...

Chronic granulomatous disease [PDF]
A clinical syndrome characterized by recurrent life-threatening Staphylococcus aureus, Proteus or Pseudomonas, hypergammaglobulinaemia, and widespread chronic granulomatous infiltration was first recognized in the paediatric literature between 1954 and 1960 [1–3].
