Description
Candotti et al. (1997, PMID:9354668) noted that patients with SCID due to JAK3 deficiency have a clinical phenotype that is virtually identical to X-linked SCID. Both disorders are characterized by the absence of circulating mature T lymphocytes and NK cells, normal to elevated numbers of nonfunctional B lymphocytes, and marked hypoplasia of lymphoid tissues. In a study of 108 patients with SCID, Buckley et al. (1997, PMID:9063412) found that IL2RG deficiency and JAK3 deficiency accounted for approximately 42% and 6% of cases, respectively.[source:OMIM]
Management
Antiinfectious prophylaxis and early and aggressive treatment of infections may be beneficial; BMT has been reported as effective for T-cell reconstitution, but less succesful as relates to B and NK-cell function. Refs. PMIDs: 7659163; 7481768; 14615376; 21184155; 21732012; 23001410
