Clinical and molecular characteristics of hereditary non-polyposis colorectal cancer families in Southeast Asia.

abstract：:Carriers for chronic granulomatous disease (CGD) and patients with lupus erythematosus (LE) share several characteristics: They are mostly females, they reduce nitroblue tetrazolium (NBT) poorly in their neutrophils, and, in some cases, they have similar skin lesions. We thus investigated 19 female LE patients for the...
