People with Job's syndrome lack specific immune cells

Scientists have made another major breakthrough--the second in the past year--in understanding a rare immune disorder called Job’s syndrome. Job’s syndrome is characterized by recurrent and often severe bacterial and fungal infections leading to outbreaks of abscesses and boils. Other symptoms of the disease include lung infections, problems in facial and dental development, curved spine and high risk of bone fractures. While individuals with Job’s syndrome often have normal life spans with intensive medical supervision, life-threatening complications from infections are a constant concern.
