BCGiosis as a presenting feature of a child with chronic granulomatous disease
Brazilian Journal of Infectious Diseases, 2011 Bacillus Calmette Guerin (BCG) vaccine, which is administered to all newborns in some regions, could lead to serious complication ranging from local disease (known as BCGitis) to disseminated disease (BCGosis) in a group of patients with primary ...

Cellular Therapies in Chronic Granulomatous Disease
Frontiers in Pediatrics, 2020 Allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) has become the main curative treatment in patients with chronic granulomatous disease (CGD). CGD is caused by inherited defects of the phagolysomal NADPH-oxidase, leading to a lifelong propensity ...

Cellular and Molecular Life Sciences, 2009 Chronic granulomatous disease is an inherited disorder of the NADPH oxidase characterized by severe bacterial and fungal infections and disordered inflammation. We propose that NADPH oxidase has a key role in regulating acute neutrophilic and T cell responses, which in turn restrains fungal growth and calibrates the inflammatory response to minimize ...

Chronic granulomatous disease: why an inflammatory disease?
Brazilian Journal of Medical and Biological Research, 2014 Chronic granulomatous disease is a primary immunodeficiency caused by mutations in the genes encoding subunits of the phagocytic NADPH oxidase system. Patients can present with severe, recurrent infections and noninfectious conditions.

Recent advances in chronic granulomatous disease
Genes and Diseases, 2020 Chronic granulomatous disease (CGD) is an inherited defect of phagocyte function due to defective NADPH oxidase. Patients with CGD are not able to effectively clear the infections because of the defect in the phagocyte production of oxygen free radicals ...

Atypical Presentation of Chronic Granulomatous Disease in a Child
Atti della Accademia Peloritana dei Pericolanti - Classe di Scienze Medico-Biologiche, 2017 Chronic granulomatous disease is a rare, inherited immunodeficiency caused by deletions or mutations in genes that encode subunits of the NADPH oxidase complex. The pattern of chronic granulomatous disease inheritance can be X-linked (about 70% of cases)

Methylotroph Infections and Chronic Granulomatous Disease
Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2016 Chronic granulomatous disease (CGD) is a primary immunodeficiency caused by a defect in production of phagocyte-derived reactive oxygen species, which leads to recurrent infections with a characteristic group of pathogens not previously known to include ...
