Where this comes from

Abstract

In this issue of Cell, Casanova and colleagues examine three family members with a mutation that results in deficiency of the T cell co-stimulatory molecule CD28. These patients exhibit clinical symptoms due to human papillomavirus-2 and -4 infections, show increased levels of Epstein-Barr virus and cytomegalovirus in the blood, and respond poorly to vaccines.
