Natural kill (NK) cells deficiency is either the deficiency, absence, or malfunction of NK cells.
Natural killer (NK) cells deficiency is a rare condition characterized by either the deficiency, absence, or malfunction of [[NK cell]]s, without the involvement of other types of immunological abnormalities and in the absence of secondary etiologies such as medications or viral infections.<ref name="pmid23993353">{{cite journal| author=Orange JS| title=Natural killer cell deficiency. | journal=J Allergy Clin Immunol | year= 2013 | volume= 132 | issue= 3 | pages= 515-25; quiz 526 | pmid=23993353 | doi=10.1016/j.jaci.2013.07.020 | pmc=PMC3917661 | url=http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/entrez/eutils/elink.fcgi?dbfrom=pubmed&tool=sumsearch.org/cite&retmode=ref&cmd=prlinks&id=23993353  }} </ref> NK cell deficiency is considered a type of [[immunosuppression]].  Acquired NK cells deficiency is not an uncommon finding among [[AIDS]] patients.<ref name="pmid2186744">{{cite journal| author=Sirianni MC, Tagliaferri F, Aiuti F| title=Pathogenesis of the natural killer cell deficiency in AIDS. | journal=Immunol Today | year= 1990 | volume= 11 | issue= 3 | pages= 81-2 | pmid=2186744 | doi= | pmc= | url=http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/entrez/eutils/elink.fcgi?dbfrom=pubmed&tool=sumsearch.org/cite&retmode=ref&cmd=prlinks&id=2186744  }} </ref>

Overview

Natural killer (NK) cells deficiency is a rare condition characterized by either the deficiency, absence, or malfunction of NK cells, without the involvement of other types of immunological abnormalities and in the absence of secondary etiologies such as medications or viral infections.[1] NK cell deficiency is considered a type of immunosuppression. Acquired NK cells deficiency is not an uncommon finding among AIDS patients.[2]

Classification

  • Classical NK cell deficiency (CNKD): Absence of NK cells in the peripheral blood
    • CKND subtype 1
    • CKND subtype 2
  • Functional NK cell deficiency (FNKD): Presence of NK cells in the peripheral blood but with abnormal function
    • FKND subtype 1[1]

Causes

Genes

  • GATA2 (CNKD1)
  • MCM4 (CNKD2)
  • FCGR3A (FNKD1)[1]
