Selective IgA Deficiency and Common Variable Immunodeficiency by Kadri Kamber, Zuhal Karalı, Sara Şebnem Kılıç

“…Common Variable Immunodeficiency (CVID) is a heterogenous group of B cell deficiency syndromes characterized by hypogammaglobulinemia, impaired antibody production and recurrent bacterial infections. Defective T-cell activation may lead to an impairment in cognate T-B-cell interaction due to impaired expression of CD40 ligand and/or abnormalities in the production of T-cell-derived cytokines required for fully functional B-cell activation, proliferation and/or differentiation which could indeed explain the impairment in antibody production present in CVID patients. …”
