T-Cell Disorders

T-cell disorders are conditions affecting a type of immune cell called T-cells, which are crucial for fighting infections and controlling immune responses. These disorders can involve T-cells being produced abnormally, failing to function properly, or multiplying excessively. Examples include immune deficiency diseases, where T-cells are weak or absent, leading to increased infections, and T-cell cancers like lymphomas. Some disorders are acquired, resulting from infections or other factors, while others are genetic. Managing these conditions often requires specialized treatments to restore immune function or control abnormal cell growth.
