Study Notes
Immunodeficiency Disorders in Animals
- Immunodeficiency disorders range from failure of pluripotent stem cells to production of complement molecules
- Clinical features suggesting primary immunodeficiency in animals include breed-specific diseases, chronic recurrent infections, and failure to respond to vaccination
- Chediak Higashi syndrome, an autosomal recessive disorder, is associated with defective neutrophil function and increased susceptibility to infection in various species
- Leukocyte adhesion deficiency and Pelger-Huet anomaly are inherited disorders observed in animals affecting neutrophil function and appearance
- Canine C3 deficiency and porcine factor H deficiency are examples of complement deficiencies in animals, leading to renal alterations and dense deposit disease
- Severe combined immunodeficiency (SCID) has been described in Arabian horses, leading to failure to produce functional T or B cells and overwhelming infection
- Selective immunoglobulin deficiency has been observed in dogs, horses, and cattle, with German Shepherds being predisposed to a range of infectious disorders
- Common variable immunodeficiency is characterized by a failure of B cells to produce antibodies
