Deficit of cell-mediated immunity, chromosomal alterations and defective DNA repair in a case of dyskeratosis congenita.

A Giannetti, S Seidenari.   

Abstract

A case of dyskeratosis congenita with depressed responsiveness to policlonal mitogens (PHA, Con-A, PKM) and negative skin tests (PPD, SK-SD, Candidin, Trichophytin) is reported. Chromatid breaks and reduction of the capacity of DNA repair were also present. The findings are discussed in relationship to the prognosis of dyskeratosis congenita.
