摘要

Humans fend off offending agents such as pathogens and tumour cells using their immune system. When immune function is diminished as a result of immunodeficiencies, individuals become more susceptible to infections and, in some cases, to cancer. Immunodeficiencies can result from defects in any component of the immune system, including T cells and B cells. These disorders can be hereditary (primary immunodeficiencies) or acquired - for example, through infection with viruses such as HIV1. Although primary immunodeficiencies are rare, their study has frequently led to identification of new, and at times unsuspected, regulators of the immune system. On page 471 of this issue, Li and colleagues2 describe one such regulator, the magnesium-ion transporter MAGT1, mutations in which result in a hereditary human immunodeficiency.
