Wiskott-Aldrich Syndrome is an inherited immune disorder that occurs in young boys. It causes eczema (a type of skin inflammation), a decrease in the number of platelets (blood cells that help prevent bleeding), and frequent bacterial infections. People with Wiskott-Aldrich syndrome are at increased risk of developing leukemia and lymphoma. Also called Aldrich syndrome.
Sinai Health researchers have reported that they have uncovered a new mechanism that regulates harmful overreactions in the body’s immune system.
