Mutations in the kindlin-3 gene lead to type-III leukocyte adhesion deficiency (LAD-III), as well as recurrent infections, immune deficiencies, and severe bleeding disorders caused by the dysfunction of integrins in leukocytes and platelets; loss of hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) and hematopoietic progenitor cells (HPCs) in the bone marrow; elevated leukocyte counts; and osteopetrosis [61–64]. Here, FERMT3 is linked to Leukocyte adhesion deficiency type III.
