First Case of X-linked Recessive Anhidrotic Ectodermal Dysplasia with Immunodeficiency from Iran with Unusual Aspergillus Infection

NEMO (NF-κB essential modulator) is a regulatory factor involved in signaling pathways of innate and adaptive immune system. Hypomorphic mutation of IKBKG gene on X chromosome leads to X-linked recessive anhidrotic ectodermal dysplasia with immunodeficiency. The affected boys presented developmental phenotype with hypotrichosis, hypohidrosis; hypodontia with conical incisors; and susceptibility to pyogenic bacteria, mycobacteria, and viruses. Most of them have impaired antibody response to polysaccharide antigens. Here, we presented the case report of 7 years old Iranian boy with NEMO-deficiency and unusual Aspergillus infection.
