| Name |
Chronic mucocutaneous candidiasis (CMC);
Familial candidiasis (CANDF)
|
| Description |
Chronic mucocutaneous candidiasis (CMC) is manifested as a primary immunodeficiency characterized by persistent or recurrent infections of the mucosa or the skin with candida species. Most cases are sporadic, but both autosomal dominant inheritance and autosomal recessive inheritance have been described. It has been reported that CMC is caused by mutations in components of a signaling pathway involving the cytokine interleukin-17.
