Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation Corrects the Immunologic Abnormalities Associated With Immunodeficiency–Centromeric Instability–Facial Dysmorphism Syndrome
2 Oct 2007
Abstract excerpt
Immunodeficiency-centromeric instability-facial dysmorphism syndrome, characterized by variable immunodeficiency, centromeric instability, and facial anomalies caused by epigenetic dysregulation resulting in hypomethylation, is caused in many patients by mutations in DNMT3B, a DNA methyltransferase gene; associated infections are a major cause of serious sequelae and death.
