摘要: Phagocytes, such as granulocytes and monocytes/macrophages, contain a membrane-associated NADPH oxidase that produces superoxide leading to other reactive oxygen species with microbicidal, tumoricidal inflammatory activities. Primary defects in activity chronic granulomatous disease (CGD) lead severe, life-threatening infections demonstrate the importance of oxygen-dependent microbicidal system host defence. Other immunological disturbances may secondarily affect system, impair phagocytes predispose recurrent infections. This article reviews primary human classical CGD, more recently discovered affecting phagocyte respiratory burst function resulting immunodeficiencies varied phenotypes, including susceptibilities pyogenic or mycobacterial
