Quizplus · Accepted Answer

B-cell immunodeficiencies involve defects in the development or function of B-cells, resulting in a decreased production of antibodies. This can lead to an inability to protect mucosal surfaces with neutralizing antibody, increased susceptibility to viral infections, loss of toxin neutralization function, and an inability to opsonize encapsulated bacteria. However, severe combined immunodeficiency (SCID) is not a B-cell immunodeficiency but rather a primary immunodeficiency that involves defects in both T and B-cells.
