Abstract

Selective immunoglobulin A deficiency (SIgAD) is the most prevalent type of primary immunodeficiency disorder. The phenotypic feature of SIgAD is related to a defect in B lymphocyte differentiation into plasma cell-producing immunoglobulin A (IgA). In this review, we summarize the recent advances in this regard. Genetic (including major histocompatibility complex MHC and non-MHC genes), immunologic (including B and T lymphocyte subsets abnormality), cytokines/chemokines and their related receptors, apoptosis and microbiota defects are reviewed. The mechanisms leading to SIgAD are most likely multifactorial and it can be speculated that several pathways controlling B cells functions or regulating epigenetic of the IGHA gene encoding constant region of IgA heavy chain and long-term survival of IgA switched memory B cells and plasma cells may be defective in different SIgAD patients. © 2019 S.
