http://www.niaid.nih.gov/factsheets/pid.htm

Extractions: More Information When people are born with a faulty immune system, they are said to have a primary immune deficiency or immunodeficiency. Unlike people with AIDS, caused by the human immunodeficiency virus or HIV, people with primary immunodeficiency (PI) diseases have inherited abnormal changes in the cells of their immune systems . Between 25,000 and 50,000 people suffer from the most serious forms of PI diseases in the United States, but experts believe that many more have milder disease that is not yet diagnosed. Each type of immune system cell has its own special function and must work together with other types to fight disease effectively. Because there are many different types of cells that make up the immune system, an error in any one of them can disrupt our immune defenses. Depending on the cell and the type of error that occurs, more than 80 different forms of PI diseases are possible. Some are severe, while others cause few or no symptoms. Having any of them makes it easier to get infections and other medical conditions. More boys than girls have PI, and first symptoms often begin in infancy or later in childhood. Primary care doctors who suspect a patient has a problem with the immune system will run screening tests. If those tests indicate the person's immune system is not functioning normally, the doctor will consult with a special kind of doctor called a clinical immunologist. The immunologist can run special blood tests to find out the exact type of PI disease and how best to treat it. Other experts the doctor may consult include pulmonologists, rheumatologists, gastroenterologists, and hematologists.

Extractions: W hen one or more parts of the immune system are missing, the result is an immune deficiency disease. These diseases can be inherited, acquired through infections or other illness, or induced as a side effect of drug treatment. The acquired immunodeficiency disease (AIDS) is well-known. Many so-called primary immunodeficiency diseases, which are inherited, are less common. In the 1960s, NIAID grantees conducted pioneering basic and clinical research to understand and treat immune deficiency disorders. They discovered that our bodies have two major types of immunityantibody-mediated and cell-mediated immunity. Pathways to both types originate in stem cells produced in the bone marrow. One pathway generates B cells in the lymph nodes and spleen, producing different antibodies keyed to specific invaders. The second, centered in the thymus gland, generates T cells that directly attack their targets.

http://www.primaryimmune.org/library/physician/page1.htm

Extractions: A PRIMER FOR PHYSICIANS INTRODUCTION THE PRIMARY IMMUNODEFICIENCY DISEASES The primary immunodeficiency diseases are a group of disorders in which the primary defect appears to be intrinsic to one or more components of the immune system. The immune system is conveniently divided into four functional compartments: Each of these functional compartments of the immune system plays a critical role in host defense against infection and inflammation. Although they each have specific roles in the normal function of the immune system, each works best when functioning in concert with the others. Some of the more common primary immunodeficiency diseases are listed in the table. One of the most useful ways of classifying the primary immunodeficiency diseases is according t which functional compartment of the immune system is impaired. Thus, there are disorders that affect the B-lymphocyte system, disorders that affect the T-lymphocyte system, disorders that affect both the B- lymphocyte and T-lymphocyte systems, disorders that affect the phagocytic system, and disorders that affect the complement system.

LeBien Section One WHAT HAPPENS AFTER THE DIAGNOSIS Section Two WHAT TO EXPECT AS YOUR CHILD GROWS OLDER Section Three ADULT ONSET Section Four IMPORTANT ELEMENTS FOR SUCCESSFUL COPING ... Section Eight HELPFUL PUBLICATIONS This booklet is written by an American mother of an adult son with a primary immune deficiency disorder; common variable immune deficiency and chronic malabsorption. It represents her family's experiences of living with chronic illness over a period of thirty seven years, and her interaction with other parents of children with primary immune deficiency as well as adult patients. She addresses the emotional side effects of this disorder, and includes experiences of other parents of pediatric primary immune deficiency patients and adult patients who kindly offered suggestions from their personal experiences. In addition, there are quotes from other publications that focus on living with chronic illness. It is our hope that this booklet will help you be better prepared for what you may encounter, and that it offers practical suggestions for coping with typical daily challenges. In addition, it may help you maintain a more stable management of your loved one's health, as well as maintain your family's stability while living with chronic illness. It is encouraging to know that cures are being found for some of these disorders.
