Cytokines and immunodeficiency diseases: critical roles of the γc‐dependent cytokines interleukins 2, 4, 7, 9, 15, and 21, and their signaling pathways
Abstract
Summary: In this review, we discuss the role of cytokines and their signaling pathways in immunodeficiency. We focus primarily on severe combined immunodeficiency (SCID) diseases as the most severe forms of primary immunodeficiencies, reviewing the different genetic causes of these diseases. We focus in particular on the range of forms of SCID that result from defects in cytokine‐signaling pathways. The most common form of SCID, X‐linked SCID, results from mutations in the common cytokine receptor γ‐chain, which is shared by the receptors for interleukin (IL)‐2, IL‐4, IL‐7, IL‐9, IL‐15, and IL‐21, underscoring that X‐linked SCID is indeed a disease of defective cytokine signaling. We also review the signaling pathways used by these cytokines and the phenotypes in humans and mice with defects in the cytokines or signaling pathways. We also briefly discuss other cytokines, such as interferon‐γ and IL‐12, where mutations in the ligand or receptor or signaling components also cause clinical disease in humans.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
