CGD shows what symptoms
Chronic inflammation such as (gingivitis, enlarged lymph nodes, tumor-like granuloma masses)
What is chediak-higashi syndrome?

Opsonization enhances ____________ up to 4000 fold
Phagocytosis
___________ receptors are on human cells that recognize different microbial products
Toll-like
