Description : Common variable immunodeficiency (CVID) is a clinically and genetically heterogeneous
group of disorders characterized by antibody deficiency, hypogammaglobulinemia, recurrent
bacterial infections, and an inability to mount an antibody response to antigen. The
defect results from a failure of B-cell differentiation and impaired secretion of
immunoglobulins; the numbers of circulating B cells are usually in the normal range,
but can be low. Most individuals with CVID have onset of infections after age 10 years.
CVID represents the most common form of primary immunodeficiency disorders and is
the most common form of primary antibody deficiency. Approximately 10 to 20% of patients
with a diagnosis of CVID have a family history of the disorder (reviews by Chapel
et al., 2008, Conley et al., 2009, and Yong et al., 2009). - Genetic Heterogeneity
of Common Variable Immunodeficiency Common variable immunodeficiency is a genetically
heterogeneous disorder. See also CVID2 (240500), caused by mutation in the TACI gene
(TNFRSF13B; 604907); CVID3 (613943), caused by mutation in the CD19 gene (107265);
CVID4 (613494), caused by mutation in the BAFFR gene (TNFRSF13C; 606269); CVID5 (613495),
caused by mutation in the CD20 gene (112210); CVID6 (613496), caused by mutation in
the CD81 gene (186845);;
Inheritance : Autosomal recessive;
Molecular basis : Caused by mutation in the inducible costimulator gene (ICOS, 605448.0001);
Laboratory abnormalities : Markedly reduced IgG levels; Markedly reduced IgA levels; Reduced IgM levels;
