Major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class II deficiency is a primary immunodeficiency. Lentiviral vectors are used for gene therapy in a mouse model of this disease. In addition, by a direct genetic correction approach, a diagnostic test to determine which of the four MHC II genes is defective in new MHC II-deficiency patients has been optimized.
