Research that Leads to Innovation

The Immune Deficiency and Histiocytosis Program at Cincinnati Children's Hospital Medical Center conducts clinical and laboratory research related to a number of immune deficiencies, including:

  • Hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis (HLH)
  • Autoimmune lymphoproliferative syndrome (ALPS)
  • X-linked lymphoproliferative syndrome 1 and 2 (XLP 1 and 2)

These studies help identify genetic causes of immune deficiencies, advance our understanding of immune deficiency disorders and help physicians provide patients with the most up-to-date treatment protocols.
