Summary

B-cell expansion with NFKB and T-cell anergy (BENTA) is an autosomal dominant disorder characterized by onset in infancy of splenomegaly and polyclonal expansion of B cells, resulting in peripheral lymphocytosis. Affected individuals also show mild immune dysfunction, including some defective antibody responses and T-cell anergy. There may be a predisposition to the development of B-cell malignancy (summary by Snow et al., 2012). [from OMIM]
