Disorder

Inheritance

Gene Affected

Clinical Findings

Chronic mucocutaneous candidiasis

Autosomal dominant or recessive

STAT1 (dominant)

AIRE (recessive)

Persistent or recurrent candidal infections, onychomycosis, autosomal recessive autoimmune polyendocrinopathy–candidosis-ectodermal dystrophy (with hypoparathyroidism and adrenal insufficiency)

DiGeorge syndrome

Autosomal dominant

Genes at chromosomal region 22q11.2

Genes at chromosome 10p13

Characteristic facial appearance with low-set ears, a congenital heart disorder (eg, aortic arch abnormalities), thymic hypoplasia or aplasia, hypoparathyroidism with hypocalcemic tetany, recurrent infections, developmental delay

X-linked lymphoproliferative syndrome

X-linked

SH2D1A (type 1)

XIAP (type 2)

Asymptomatic until onset of Epstein-Barr virus infection, then fulminant or fatal infectious mononucleosis with liver failure, B-cell lymphomas, splenomegaly, aplastic anemia

Zeta-associated protein 70 (ZAP-70) deficiency

Autosomal recessive

ZAP-70

Common and opportunistic infections

No CD8 cells

AIRE = autoimmune regulator; CD = clusters of differentiation; SH2D1A = SH2 domain containing 1A; STAT = signal transducer and activator of transcription; XIAP = X-linked inhibitor of apoptosis.
