Chronic granulomatous disease [PDF]

open access: yesBritish Medical Bulletin, 2016
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.

Inherited p40phox deficiency differs from classic chronic granulomatous disease [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Clinical Investigation, 2018
Biallelic loss-of-function (LOF) mutations of the NCF4 gene, encoding the p40phox subunit of the phagocyte NADPH oxidase, have been described in only 1 patient. We report on 24 p40phox-deficient patients from 12 additional families in 8 countries.

A case of chronic granulomatous disease and acne: is isotretinoin a safe treatment? [PDF]

open access: yesDermatology Reports, 2022
We report the case of a patient with chronic granulomatous disease and acne treated with isotretinoin, who developed a diffuse staphylococcal skin infection during the therapy. Chronic granulomatous disease is a rare genetic disorder characterized by an

Chronic Granulomatous Disease

open access: yesHematology/Oncology Clinics of North America, 2009
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

What Works When Treating Granulomatous Disease in Genetically Undefined CVID? A Systematic Review

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2020
BackgroundGranulomatous disease is reported in at least 8–20% of patients with common variable immunodeficiency (CVID). Granulomatous disease mainly affects the lungs, and is associated with significantly higher morbidity and mortality.

Chronic granulomatous disease: the European experience. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
CGD is an immunodeficiency caused by deletions or mutations in genes that encode subunits of the leukocyte NADPH oxidase complex. Normally, assembly of the NADPH oxidase complex in phagosomes of certain phagocytic cells leads to a "respiratory burst ...
