Leukocyte adhesion deficiency II: therapy and genetic defect.
Leukocyte adhesion deficiency II (LAD II) is a rare congenital disease which is caused by a defect in fucosylation of glycoconjugates. Hypofucosylated structures include ligands for the selectin family of adhesion molecules. This results in a leukocyte adhesion defect causing an immunodeficiency. In...
