此绘图呈现了XMEN病的部分临床和实验特征。

XMEN病是一种罕见遗传性免疫疾病。英文病名简写XMEN,其全名为“X染色体性联免疫缺乏合并缺乏(M)、EB病毒(E)、肿瘤(N)”。疾病特征为CD4+淋巴球不足、严重慢性病毒感染、以及T淋巴球活化之缺陷。美国卫生研究院免疫感染研究所的Michael Lenardo团队在2011年首度报告此疾病。[1][2][3][4]

因为人类X性染色体上的基因MAGT1变异,导致该基因所表现的镁离子传递蛋白功能缺陷,导致XMEN[2]。镁离子传递蛋白对体内镁离子的平衡扮演重要角色。[5]由于该基因位于X染色体上,因此该基因缺陷为性联遗传模式。不过,环境因子与其他基因会影响疾病严重度。[3]

XMEN病人一般会具有慢性的EB病毒感染,CD4+淋巴球减少、B淋巴球量提高、以及中性球轻微不足的现象。临床上会依照病人的症状予以治疗。镁离子补充可能是个治疗方向,但目前对于借此方法治疗XMEN或预防淋巴癌发生的效果尚未知。美国国家卫生研究院正在进行诊断与治疗此遗传疾病的方法。[6][7]
