Details of patients whose CD40 ligand (CD40L) expression was analysed by immunostaining

Patient	CD40L expression	Age	IgM	IgA	IgG	Mutation	Evidence of mutation being disease causing
CD40L expression is described as present, absent, or weak. The age listed is the age of the patient when immunostaining was performed. Immunoglobulin concentrations are listed as high (H), normal (N), low/absent (L), maternal (M), or replacement (R) using age appropriate normal ranges. Mutation data are only presented for TNFSF5 gene analysis—the exon/intron in which the mutation resides is given, together with the reference if previously reported, and CD40Lbase accession number (AC). Mutation nomenclature is according to the nomenclature working group.¹⁷ *Accession number for a relative. a.a., amino acid.
