Chronic granulomatous disease: Overview and hematopoietic stem cell transplantation

Abstract: Chronic Granulomatous Disease (CGD) still causes significant morbidity and mortality. The difficulty in considering high-risk yet curative treatments, such as allogeneic bone marrow transplantation, lies in the unpredictable courses of both CGD and bone marrow transplantation in different patients. Some CGD patients may have frequent infections and/or suffer from granulomatous or autoimmune disorders necessitating immunosuppressive therapy, but also experience long periods of relative good health. However, the… Show more

“…Human pathology indicates the vital necessity of all the above steps as any disturbance of the migration, superoxide production, opsonization or granule production results in serious diseases with repeated, often life-threatening infections [30,46,52,100,112].…”

“…El trasplante de células madre hematopoyéticas es una opción de tratamiento para los pacientes con enfermedad granulomatosa crónica; sin embargo, no es frecuente recurrir a ella debido a la mortalidad y la morbilidad asociadas al procedimiento (3). El trasplante con un donante haploidéntico aumenta la posibilidad de la falla del injerto y retrasa la reconstitución inmunológica; sin embargo, si hay un donante emparentado con HLA idéntico, la supervivencia del injerto mejora hasta en el 90 % (26).…”

“…Esta enfermedad tiene una prevalencia estimada de uno por 200.000 nacidos vivos y hasta 70 % de los casos se deben a mutaciones ligadas al cromosoma X en el gen que codifica para la proteína gp91 phox (CYBB), mientras que las formas autosómicas recesivas se deben a mutaciones en los genes que codifican para las proteínas p67 phox , p22 phox , p47 phox o p40 phox (3)(4)(5)(6).…”
