Aspergillosis in Chronic Granulomatous Disease [PDF]
Journal of Fungi, 2016 Patients with chronic granulomatous disease (CGD) have the highest life-time incidence of invasive aspergillosis and despite the availability of antifungal prophylaxis, infections by Aspergillus species remain the single most common infectious cause of ...

Chronic granulomatous disease: the European experience. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 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 ...

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 ...

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

Chronic granulomatous disease: why an inflammatory disease? [PDF]
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.

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 ...
