Simplified model of the immune response in a healthy individual and in a patient with a mutation in IL12RB1, lacking IL12Rβ1 expression. The hypothetical consequences of nonfunctional IL-12 receptor are depicted. This model is based on the clinical cases reported here and published articles on animal models of infection.
