Nezelof syndrome

Nezelof syndrome is another thymus-related disease where it can be used.

Nezelof syndrome is an inherited condition that becomes apparent early in the life of the baby.

T cell dysfunction in the presence of relatively normal concentrations of gammaglobulin is one way of defining Nezelof syndrome.

Nezelof syndrome is usually classified as a T cell deficiency, yet those affected do not have abnormal levels of gammaglobulin, a protein in blood that contains disease-fighting antibodies.

Because neither of the two main infection-fighting cells, T cells and B cells, functions properly, Nezelof syndrome is often referred to as a combined immunodeficiency disorder (CID).
