- Primary immunodeficiencies may affect either the innate immune system or the adaptive immune system
- They are categorised by either the type or the developmental stage of the cells involved
- Lymphoid cell disorders affect T cells or B cells (or both)
- Myeloid cell disorders affect phagocytic function
- The severity of the immunodeficiency depends on at which stage in development the problem occurs
- E.g. Defects early on in development will affect the entire immune system
- T cell deficiencies can affect both the cell-mediated and humoral response as T cells play a central role in the immune system
