Abstract

Mechanisms of autoimmunity in primary immunodeficiencies (PID) are, in many situations, unclear. Despite being linked with many PIDs (namely humoral), juvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIA) has rarely been associated with DNA-repair disorders, such as Ataxia-telangiectasia (A-T).

Highlights

  • Mechanisms of autoimmunity in primary immunodeficiencies (PID) are, in many situations, unclear
