Immunodeficiencies Associated with Abnormal Newborn Screening for T Cell and B Cell Lymphopenia

Soma Jyonouchi et al. J Clin Immunol. 2017 May.

Abstract

Newborn screening for SCID has revealed the association of low T cells with a number of unexpected syndromes associated with low T cells, some of which were not appreciated to have this feature. This review will discuss diagnostic approaches and the features of some of the syndromes likely to be encountered following newborn screening for immune deficiencies.

Keywords: Immunology; Low T cells; NBS; Newborn screen.
