Immune Dysregulation Polyendocrinopathy Enteropathy X Linked Syndrome Rare Inherited

IPEX syndrome (immune dysregulation, polyendocrinopathy, enteropathy, X-linked) is a very rare inherited condition where regulatory T cells (Treg) CD4 CD25 are lacking due to a mutation in the FoxP3 gene, leading to the development of autoimmunity.

El síndrome IPEX es una afección heredada muy rara donde faltan células T reguladoras (Treg) CD4 CD25 debido a una mutación en el gen FoxP3, lo que lleva al desarrollo de autoinmunidad.
