XMEN is an X-linked recessive immunodeficiency characterized by CD4 (186940) lymphopenia, severe chronic viral infections, and defective T-lymphocyte activation (Li et al., 2011). Affected individuals have chronic Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) infection and are susceptible to the development of EBV-associated B-cell lymphoproliferative disorders. Magnesium supplementation may be therapeutic (summary by Li et al., 2014). [from OMIM]

Immunodeficiency-18 is an autosomal recessive primary immunodeficiency characterized by onset in infancy or early childhood of recurrent infections. The severity is variable, encompassing both a mild immunodeficiency and severe combined immunodeficiency (SCID), resulting in early death without bone marrow transplantation in some patients. Immunologic work-up of the IMD18 SCID patients shows a T cell-negative, B cell-positive, natural killer (NK) cell-positive phenotype, whereas T-cell development is not impaired in the mild form of IMD18 (summary by de Saint Basile et al., 2004). [from OMIM]

Immunodeficiency-64 with lymphoproliferation (IMD64) is an autosomal recessive primary immunodeficiency characterized by onset of recurrent bacterial, viral, and fungal infections in early childhood. Laboratory studies show variably decreased numbers of T cells, with lesser deficiencies of B and NK cells. There is impaired T-cell proliferation and activation; functional defects in B cells and NK cells may also be observed. Patients have increased susceptibility to EBV infection and may develop lymphoproliferation or EBV-associated lymphoma. Some patients may develop features of autoimmunity (summary by Salzer et al., 2016, Mao et al., 2018, and Winter et al., 2018). [from OMIM]

IMD52 is an autosomal recessive primary immunodeficiency with variable manifestations, including severe combined immunodeficiency, hematologic autoimmune disorders, progressive lymphopenia and hypogammaglobulinemia, and lymphoproliferation with splenomegaly. Patients develop severe recurrent infections from infancy, and most die without bone marrow transplantation. The variable clinical features result from a defect in T-cell receptor signaling (summary by Keller et al., 2016 and Bacchelli et al., 2017). [from OMIM]

Congenital disorder of glycosylation type 2R (CDG2R) is an X-linked recessive disorder characterized by infantile onset of liver failure, recurrent infections due to hypogammaglobulinemia, and cutis laxa. Some patients may also have mild intellectual impairment and dysmorphic features. Laboratory studies showed defective glycosylation of serum transferrin in a type 2 pattern (summary by Rujano et al., 2017). For an overview of congenital disorders of glycosylation, see CDG1A (212065) and CDG2A (212066). [from OMIM]

Immunodeficiency-81 (IMD81) is an autosomal recessive complex immunologic disorder with onset of symptoms in infancy. The phenotype is highly variable and may include both immunodeficiency with recurrent infections, including bacterial and fungal infections, as well as autoimmune features, including autoimmune hemolytic anemia, pancytopenia, thrombocytopenia, and inflammatory bowel disease. Immunologic workup shows immune dysregulation with abnormalities affecting multiple immune cell lineages, including T cells, B cells, NK cells, and neutrophils, which may be decreased or increased and demonstrate functional deficits. There is a wide range of hematologic abnormalities. Affected individuals may be susceptible to severe EBV infection. The disorder is caused by a defect in intracellular immune signaling pathways (summary by Lev et al., 2021; Edwards et al., 2023). [from OMIM]

Immunodeficiency-87 and autoimmunity (IMD87) is an autosomal recessive immunologic disorder with wide phenotypic variation and severity. Affected individuals usually present in infancy or early childhood with increased susceptibility to infections, often Epstein-Barr virus (EBV), as well as with lymphadenopathy or autoimmune manifestations, predominantly hemolytic anemia. Laboratory studies may show low or normal lymphocyte numbers, often with skewed T-cell subset ratios. The disorder results primarily from defects in T-cell function, which causes both immunodeficiency and overall immune dysregulation (summary by Serwas et al., 2019 and Fournier et al., 2021). [from OMIM]

Immunodeficiency-79 (IMD79) is an autosomal recessive disorder characterized by childhood onset of recurrent and recalcitrant skin warts due to uncontrolled viral infection with human papillomavirus (HPV). Some patients may also have recurrent respiratory infections beginning in childhood, but the phenotype overall is mild compared to other primary immunodeficiencies. Patients may not come to attention until adulthood. Laboratory studies show absence of the CD4 antigen on T cells, monocytes, and dendritic cells, with variable secondary abnormalities in B cells and NK cells due to lack of CD4+ T cells (summary by Lisco et al., 2021). [from OMIM]
