Natural Killer Cells from Patients with Recombinase-Activating Gene and Non-Homologous End Joining Gene Defects Comprise a Higher Frequency of CD56 NKG2A Cells, and Yet Display Increased Degranulation and Higher Perforin Content.

Mutations of the recombinase-activating genes 1 and 2 ( and ) in humans are associated with a broad range of phenotypes. For patients with severe clinical presentation, hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) represents the only curative treatment; however, high rates of graft failure and incomplete immune reconstitution have been observed, especially after unconditioned haploidentical transplantation. Studies in mice have shown that natural killer (NK) cells have a mature phenotype, reduced fitness, and increased cytotoxicity.
