Technically PIDs can manifest in any organ system but the focus of this articl general this article is emphasizing that some common skin conditions such a infections might be a sign of a primary immunodeficiency disorder. The artic are extensive, recurrent, are not responding to therapy, or if there are other investigation into a possible PID should be done. A lot of these conditions ari to catch them early (and dermatologists can play an important part in this)! I would say the main take away is that the following derm conditions are ass Eczema Erythroderma Viral warts or molluscum contagiosum Chronic mucocutaneous candidiasis Recurrent non-healing ulcers Skin abscesses Petechial or purpuric spots And to cover this objective thoroughly here are the details on what specific P Eczema - Various PIDS Many PIDs have eczema as a clinical manifestation Wiskott-Aldrich Syndrome (WAS) photos: https://catmailohio-my.sharepoint.com/personal/cw427624_ohio_edu/_layouts/15/Doc.aspx?sourcedoc={434df08f-0ff3-4dc1-9da7-6963d7f38995}&a… 22/28 2/17/25, 10:06 PM OneNote Chronic Mucocutaneous Candidiasis as a Predominant Manifestation in PID Candida infection localized to skin and mucous membranes PIDs involving both innate and adaptive can have CMC as a predomina This table summarizes each of the PIDs and denotes their clinical featu Molluscum Contagiosum as a result of PIDS: Viral infection ○ Poxvirus family Discrete papular or nodular lesions PIDs that predispose to molluscum contagiosum ○ WAS ○ AR-HIES (DOCK8 mutation) Warts as a result of PIDs: HPV (human papilloma virus) ○ Infect skin and mucosa ○ Cutaneous and genital warts Cellular immunity (T helper cells and NK cells) typically defend against Associated with many PIDs predispose to warts ○ PID should be suspected if recurrent warts, warts resistant to the https://catmailohio-my.sharepoint.com/personal/cw427624_ohio_edu/_layouts/15/Doc.aspx?sourcedoc={434df08f-0ff3-4dc1-9da7-6963d7f38995}&a… 23/28 2/17/25, 10:06 PM OneNote *They stopped having a nice table at this point so I tried my best to conden likely important for us to know right now!

Occurs as a result of an acquired impairment of the function of B cells, T cells, or both. Often reversible if the underlying cause is resolved. Malnutrition (most common cause worldwide): Affects both innate and adaptive immunity Reduction in protein synthesis which provokes a reduction in phagocyte function, complement and antibody synthesis, and cell- mediated immunity. Deficiency of vitamins and minerals affects the immune response - zinc deficiency impairs T cell and DC function and reduces the killing functions of phagocytes. Splenectomized patients: Removal of the spleen increases susceptibility to bacteremias with encapsulated bacteria, since specialized B cells (T-independent) in the spleen are crucial for mounting antibody responses to polysaccharide antigens carried in the capsule of some bacteria. Macrophages present in the spleen collaborate in eliminating microbial antigens from circulation via phagocytosis. Cancer patients: Suffer from immunosuppression Anti-proliferative/cytotoxic chemotherapy or radiation can cause death of bone marrow stem cells and inhibition of peripheral lymphocyte proliferation. The immune system could be the origin of the cancer cells (e.g. leukemias or lymphomas) which would lead to the disruption of normal output of immune cells from the bone marrow, crowding of https://catmailohio-my.sharepoint.com/personal/cw427624_ohio_edu/_layouts/15/Doc.aspx?sourcedoc={434df08f-0ff3-4dc1-9da7-6963d7f38995}&a… 27/28 2/17/25, 10:06 PM OneNote lymphoid organs due to leukocyte proliferation, or loss of normal antibody responses. Patients taking immunosuppressant drugs: Patients who are receiving treatment for inflammatory conditions or controlling transplant rejection. Example: corticosteroids exert a broad inhibition of cytokine gene expression, phagocyte migration, and lymphocyte function. Specific drugs: cyclosporine or anti-CD3 serum - used in transplant rejection. Target specific immune populations. May inhibit or eliminate T cells. Aging Involution of thymus - by age 40 humans stop producing new T cells Decrease in output of immune cells by bone marrow Low degree of chronic inflammation in the elderly which alters the capacity of the immune system to fight infections Protein loss: Can cause low antibody levels, hypoproteinemia, or Crohn's disease.
