Abstract excerpt
Recently, three human primary immunodeficiencies associated with impaired TLR signalling were described. Anhidrotic ectodermal dysplasia with immunodeficiency (EDA-ID), either X-linked recessive or autosomal dominant, is caused by hypomorphic mutations in NEMO or hypermorphic mutation in IKBA, respectively, both involved in nuclear factor-kappaB (NF-kappaB) activation. These patients present with abnormal...
