The Newcastle University research output collection, currently available on ePrints, will shortly be moving to a new open repository platform, Figshare. To prepare for the data migration we have paused adding new content to ePrints, and will resume once the new repository is launched. During this time you will continue to have access to ePrints (but no new content will appear). We will share updates here when available.

Abstract

Chronic Granulomatous Disease (CGD) is a rare primary immunodeficiency due to a defect in one of the NADPH oxidase complex subunits; 70 % of cases are X-linked, due to a CYBB mutation, resulting in defective production of gp91(PHOX). Female carriers of X-linked CGD have previously been considered to be unaffected. It is increasingly recognized that they may suffer from similar problems to CGD patients. This review will examine the literature about clinical manifestations of disease in X-linked carriers of CGD.
