Abstract excerpt
The Wiskott-Aldrich syndrome (WAS) is a severe immunodeficiency and platelet deficiency disease arising from mutation(s) in the WASP gene, which in normal cells encodes an intracellular protein able to interact with other proteins relevant to the control of cytoskeleton organization. Immunodeficiency is mainly due to T-cell progressive malfunction. Salient defects of WAS T cells are a CD3-restricted impairment in...
