Short description of the WASbase :

Defects in WASP are the cause of Wiskott-Aldrich syndrome (WAS), an X-linked recessive immunodeficiency characterized by eczema, thrombocytopenia, recurrent infections, and bloody diarrhea. Death usually occurs before age 10. Two forms of WAS exist: a severe form culminating in early lymphoma, and a milder form compatible with survival to adult life. X-linked thrombocytopenia it is a mild variant with thrombocytopenia and without eczema and immune deficiency.
