Research progress of primary immunodeficiency disease with hyper IgE syndrome / 中华实用儿科临床杂志

ABSTRACT

The hyper IgE syndrome (HIES) is a rare primary immunodeficiency disorder characterized by atopic dermatitis, recurrent skin and lung infections along with elevated IgE levels.The JOB syndrome due to heterozygous loss-of-function mutations in the signal transduction and transcription activator-3(STAT3) gene is the prototype of HIES.However, several other immunodeficiency disorders with the phenotype of HIES have been identified over the past decade.This study aims to review these disorders and their molecular mechanisms, aiming to improve the understanding of this rare disease.
