Abstract excerpt
We previously examined the Ig heavy (H) chain gene of pretransplant patients with X-linked SCID (XSCID), having defects in the gene of the IL-2 receptor (R) gamma chain. In the present study, we analyzed two post-transplant XSCID patients, in whom T cell-depleted haploidentical BMT resulted in lymphoid split chimeras, i.e., donor functional T cells coexisting with recipient B cells. Although the recipient B cells...
