      Case#: P01, Female, clinical diagnosis at the age of 45, genetic diagnosis at the age of 56, German, alive at the time of article's publication

      CasePreviousTesting: The percentage of transendocytosis using either CD80-GFP or CD80-mScarlet CHO cells was determined in eight LRBA-deficient patients. No difference in the percentage of transendocytosis was observed between CTLA4-variant carriers (GFP median=5.4%; mScarlet median= 49.8%) and LRBA-deficient patients (GFP median=9.9%; mScarlet median, 48.6%). However, significantly lower percentages of transendocytosis were observed in LRBA-deficient patients compared to healthy donors (HD) when using CD80-mScarlet CHO cells (median, 48.6% vs. 65.5% in HD) (Fig. ​(Fig.4e),4e). This difference was not observed with CD80-GFP CHO cells (patients median of 9.9% in patients vs. 13.9% in HD). In conclusion, the CTLA4 transendocytosis method using CD80-mScarlet CHO cells enables the functional verification of LRBA deficiency, but it cannot differentiate between LRBA deficiency and CTLA4 insufficiency.

      CasePreviousTesting: The percentage of transendocytosis using either CD80-GFP or CD80-mScarlet CHO cells was determined in eight LRBA-deficient patients. No difference in the percentage of transendocytosis was observed between CTLA4-variant carriers (GFP median=5.4%; mScarlet median= 49.8%) and LRBA-deficient patients (GFP median=9.9%; mScarlet median, 48.6%). However, significantly lower percentages of transendocytosis were observed in LRBA-deficient patients compared to healthy donors (HD) when using CD80-mScarlet CHO cells (median, 48.6% vs. 65.5% in HD) (Fig. ​(Fig.4e),4e). This difference was not observed with CD80-GFP CHO cells (patients median of 9.9% in patients vs. 13.9% in HD). In conclusion, the CTLA4 transendocytosis method using CD80-mScarlet CHO cells enables the functional verification of LRBA deficiency, but it cannot differentiate between LRBA deficiency and CTLA4 insufficiency.

    1. Case 3 is a 10‐month‐old Japanese female born at 37 weeks of gestation with a birth length of 40.0 cm (−2.9 SD relative to the average for this gestational age) and birth weight of 1,676 g (−3.1 SD relative to the average for this gestational age) (Table 1). A clinical diagnosis of Silver‐Russell syndrome was tentatively made on the basis of IUGR and her distinctive facial features—including a pronounced forehead, triangular facial structure, and underdeveloped alae nasi (Figure 1c,d)—but no genetic testing was performed until the current evaluation. Her height and weight were 60.3 cm (−4.0 SD relative to the average for her age) and 4.01 kg (−7.6 SD relative to the average for her age), respectively, at the time of evaluation for the present study. She was suspected to have SHORT syndrome given that her father (case 4) manifested diabetes and facial characteristics consistent with this syndrome. Her fasting plasma glucose, serum IRI concentrations, and serum C‐peptide were 83 mg/dL, 2.6 μIU/mL, and 1.34 ng/mL, respectively, with an HbA1c level of 4.6%. Her HOMA‐IR was 0.53, and her HOMA‐β was 46.8%.

      Case#: 10-month‐old Japanese female

      DiseaseAssertion: Patients are asserted to have “SHORT syndrome” and “harbor either a common or a previously unknown mutation in PIK3R1 as well as provide an in silico functional analysis of the mutant proteins.”

      FamilyInfo: Her father has SHORT syndrome, with the same variant of PIK3R1, NM_181523.3:c.1957A>T, further described in Case 4. Her paternal grandmother "also manifests some facial characteristics of SHORT syndrome as well as a hearing impairment."

    2. Case 1 is a 20‐year‐old Japanese male born at 39 weeks of gestation with a birth length of 45 cm and a birth weight of 1,990 g (−3.0 SD relative to the average for this gestational age) (Table 1). He was found to have glycosuria during a school urine test at the age of 12 years and started treatment with metformin for diabetes at 15 years. At the time of evaluation for the present study, he was taking an SGLT2 (sodium‐glucose cotransporter 2) inhibitor in addition to metformin (1,500 mg/day). The addition of the SGLT2 inhibitor had reduced his glycosylated hemoglobin (HbA1c) level from ~8% to ~6%. His fasting plasma glucose, serum immunoreactive insulin (IRI) concentrations, and serum C‐peptide at evaluation were 161 mg/dL, 35.8 μIU/mL, and 5.20 ng/mL, respectively. His HOMA‐IR was 14.2, and his HOMA‐β was 131.5%. He had a height of 163.4 cm (−1.2 SD) and weight of 38.5 kg (−2.7 SD), with a body mass index of 14.4 kg/m2 (−2.1 SD). He manifested facial characteristics of SHORT syndrome as well as adipose tissue atrophy in the upper body. He had hyperopic astigmatism and was diagnosed with anisometropic amblyopia at the age of 3 years. He had used an eye patch until the age of 8 years.

A flow cytometric analysis demonstrated a decreased number of CD19+CD27+ memory B cells in the blood, with a selective decrease in IgG- and IgA-producing memory B cells. Chest radiography revealed bilateral infiltration of the lower lung fields while chest CT showed bilateral lower lobe reticular shadows as well as right middle lobe infiltrative and scattered nodular shadows in both the upper lobes. Bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) showed increased cell counts (5.5×104/μL) and increased eosinophils, neutrophils, and lymphocytes in the cell fraction (eosinophils, 7%; neutrophils, 3%; lymphocytes, 25%; macrophages, 65%). The CD4/CD8 ratio in the lymphocytes was within the normal range (CD4/CD8 ratio: 1.06). A transbronchial lung biopsy revealed mild lymphocytic and eosinophilic infiltration of the cell septa. A pathological examination at low magnification revealed collapsed alveolar spaces with surrounding fibrotic changes, and at high magnification, thickened alveolar walls, nodule formation with lymphocyte and plasma cell infiltration, and lymphatic follicles were found. Polypoid plugs of loose organizing connective tissue (Masson bodies) within alveoli and small granulomas were also present. The infiltrated lymphocytes were CD3- or CD20-positive.
