Tafazzin deficiency in mouse mesenchymal stem cells potentiates their immunosuppression and impairs activated B lymphocyte immune function
2021-09-08
Abstract excerpt
Barth Syndrome (BTHS) is a rare X-linked genetic disorder caused by mutation in the TAFAZZIN gene which encodes the cardiolipin (CL) transacylase tafazzin (Taz). Taz deficiency in BTHS patients results in reduced CL in their tissues and a neutropenia which contributes to the risk of infections. However, the impact of Taz deficiency in other cells of the immune system is poorly understood. Mesenchymal stem cells (M...
