Abstract
Four related male infants presented with neonatal diabetes mellitus, i mmune dysregulation with extremely high concentrations of immunoglobul in E, and intractable diarrhoea. They were all hem one family, and all of them died. As far as is known this X-linked recessive disorder has not been described before. It is suggested that this is a new immunod eficiency in which type 2 T helper responses predominate.
