By the use of flow cytometry, 17 patients with chronic granulomatous disease (CGD) were examined for lymphocyte subsets. CD4+CD29+ cell (memory T cell) and CD8+CD11b+ cell (suppressor T cell) subsets in CGD were significantly decreased and remained practically unchanged throughout the period examined except in those < 6 months of age, although in controls both subsets gradually increased with age. These data indicate a certain abnormality in the maturation process of CGD T lymphocytes. Memory T cells are known to secrete a large amount of interferon-gamma (IFN-gamma). Recently, administration of IFN-gamma to CGD patients has become an effective treatment that reduces the frequency of serious bacterial infections. Decreased memory T cells may clarify the mechanism of therapeutic effectiveness, which remains unknown.

D002675 Child, Preschool A child between the ages of 2 and 5. Children, Preschool,Preschool Child,Preschool Children
D006105 Granulomatous Disease, Chronic A defect of leukocyte function in which phagocytic cells ingest but fail to digest bacteria, resulting in recurring bacterial infections with granuloma formation. When chronic granulomatous disease is caused by mutations in the CYBB gene, the condition is inherited in an X-linked recessive pattern. When chronic granulomatous disease is caused by CYBA, NCF1, NCF2, or NCF4 gene mutations, the condition is inherited in an autosomal recessive pattern.
