Abstract

Hyper-IgE syndrome is a primary immunodeficiency marked by abnormalities in the coordination of cell-cell signaling with the potential to affect TH17 cell, B cell, and neutrophil responses. Clinical manifestations include recurrent skin and lung infections, serum IgE elevation, connective tissue repair and development alterations, and the propensity for vascular abnormalities and tumor development. Signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 (STAT3) signaling, dedicator of cytokinesis 8 (DOCK8) signaling, and tyrosine kinase 2 (TYK2) signaling alterations have been implicated in 3 forms of hyper-IgE syndrome.
