Grass immunotherapy induces inhibition of allergen-specific human peripheral blood mononuclear cell proliferation.

abstract：BACKGROUND:Common variable immunodeficiency (CVID) is the most common primary antibody deficiency syndrome in humans, but it remains a diagnosis of exclusion in most cases. Several genetically defined primary immunodeficiencies mimic CVID. Among them is the X-linked lymphoproliferative syndrome (XLP) which was shown to...
