![When the body's immune system does not function as it should, it leads to diseases such as immunodeficiency diseases](https://fortunetelleroracle.com/public/upload/media/posts/2021-12/01/when-the-body-s-immune-system-does-not-function-as-it-should-it-leads-to-diseases-such-as-immunodeficiency-diseases_1638353033-b.jpg)
Immunodeficiency diseases develop when the immune system fails to protect the body from pathogens such as viruses, bacteria, fungi, parasites, and other microorganisms. Primary and secondary immunodeficiency diseases are the two types of immunodeficiency diseases. Gene mutations such as gene deletion, gene duplication, and others cause primary immunodeficiency diseases, which are present at birth.
These genetic flaws can cause primary immunodeficiency diseases like combined immunodeficiency disease, DiGeorge syndrome, hypogammaglobulinemia, Bruton's disease, and others. Secondary immunodeficiency disease is caused by a variety of factors, including malnutrition, diabetes, radiation, severe burns, and others. Secondary immunodeficiency diseases include HIV/AIDS, leukemia, viral hepatitis, multiple myeloma, and other illnesses. Antibiotics, immunoglobulin therapy, antiviral drugs, stem cell therapy, and gene therapy are all options for treating immune-deficiency diseases.
Immunodeficiency disorders or diseases compromise a person's immune system's ability to fight microbial infection, leaving them immunocompromised. As a result, people who have immunodeficiency diseases or disorders are more likely to get sick. Congenital and acquired immune deficiency disorders are both possible. A congenital immunodeficiency disorder appears at birth, whereas an acquired immunodeficiency disorder appears later in life. For example, primary immunodeficiency disease is a congenital immunodeficiency disease caused by a mutation in genes that control the immune system.
