Mutations in the interferon (IFN)-gamma receptor predispose to infection with bacille Calmette-Guérin, nontuberculous mycobacteria, and Salmonella organisms. We identified a patient with recurrent disseminated Histoplasma capsulatum osteomyelitis who had an autosomal dominant form of IFN-gamma receptor 1 deficiency (i.e., a 4-bp deletion at or near base 818). IFN-gamma-mediated immunity is important in the control of histoplasmosis.
干扰素(IFN)-γ受体的突变易使人感染卡介苗、非结核分枝杆菌和沙门氏菌。我们鉴定出一名患有复发性播散性荚膜组织胞浆菌骨髓炎的患者,其存在常染色体显性形式的IFN-γ受体1缺陷(即818位碱基或其附近有一个4碱基缺失)。IFN-γ介导的免疫在组织胞浆菌病的控制中很重要。
