    1. Comprehensive comparison between 222 CTLA-4 haploinsufficiency and 212 LRBA deficiency patients: a systematic review

      PMID: 33788257

      Gene: CTLA4

      HGNC: 2505

      Disease: autoimmune lymphoproliferative syndrome due to CTLA4 haploinsufficiency

      MONDO: 0014493

      InheritancePattern: autosomal dominant

      Prevalence: <1 in 1,000,000

      Penetrance: The penetrance of the phenotype among carriers of pathogenic variants is incomplete.

    1. Whole exome sequencing (WES) and genetic linkage analysis were carried out in fourteen members of a large family with 39 individuals (Family A, Fig. 1a and Supplementary Notes). Five family members presented with recurrent respiratory tract infections, hypogammaglobulinemia, autoimmune cytopenia, autoimmune enteropathy and granulomatous infiltrative lung disease. Since no perfectly segregating novel mutations could be identified, we performed an affected-only analysis to allow for reduced penetrance of the causative mutation. Here, we identified 27 novel heterozygous mutations in 19 genes, which had not been listed in dbSNP (http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/SNP/) (Supplementary Fig. 1). A nonsense mutation at position c.105 (C35*) was identified in the first exon of CTLA4 which segregated with disease, which we also found in six members of Family A who were so far considered healthy (I.2, II.2, II.3, II.10, III.5, and III.6) (Fig. 1a, b).

      Case#: Family_A_Patient_A.II.9, male, onset at or before the age of 17, death at age 37 years, ethnicity not specified

      DiseaseAssertion: Patients are asserted to have "CTLA4 haploinsufficiency" or impaired ligand binding by CTLA4 resulting in "a complex syndrome with features of both autoimmunity and immunodeficiency".

      FamilyInfo: The Family A pedigree is shown in Figure 1a and includes 39 members and 11 genotype-positive members, of whom 5 are affected.

      CasePresentingHPOs: HP:0010444 (Pulmonary insufficiency), HP:0004313 (Decreased circulating antibody level), HP:0001744 (Splenomegaly), HP:0011108 (Recurrent sinusitis), HP:0002837 (Recurrent bronchitis), HP:0000787 (Nephrolithiasis), HP:0032262 (Pulmonary tuberculosis), HP:0032271 (Extrapulmonary tuberculosis), HP:0006532 (Recurrent pneumonia), HP:0025419 (Pulmonary pneumatocele), HP:0030875 (Abnormality of pulmonary circulation), HP:0010976 (B lymphocytopenia), HP:0004313 (Decreased circulating antibody level), HP:0002720 (Decreased circulating IgA level), HP:0002850 (Decreased circulating total IgM)

      CaseHPOFreeText: Diagnosis at age 17 was accompanied by hypogammaglobulinemia and splenomegaly. Death at age 37 was due to pulmonary insufficiency. The patient had pulmonary hypertension and clubbing. Lobectomy and lung transplant were performed. Laboratory values included very low B cells and NK cells.

      CaseNotHPOs: N/A

      CaseNotHPOFreeText: N/A

      CasePreviousTesting: Genotyping was performed at the genome-wide level (whole exome sequencing), and additional linkage analysis was performed in this family.

      GenotypingMethod: Genotyping was performed by whole exome sequencing as well as genetic linkage analysis with microsatellite markers, linking the disease locus to the D2S1384 marker on chromosome 2 (close to CTLA4).

      PreviouslyPublished: No prior article is known to contain information on the same proband.

      Variant: The patient harbors the NM_005214.5(CTLA4):c.105C>A (p.Cys35Ter) variant in the heterozygous state.

      ClinVar: 161112

      CAID: N/A (Not required, as there is already a ClinVar ID for this variant)

      gnomAD: This variant was not found in gnomAD v.2.1.1.

      SupplementalData: Yes, the description of the patient is located in the Supplementary Notes, while the clinical phenotypes and laboratory measurements are found in Tables S1 and S2.

      CaseNotHPOs: N/A

      CaseNotHPOFreeText: In 2013, the 45‐year‐old patient was admitted for sepsis. An elective total right hip replacement 6 months before had been followed by recurrent urosepsis. Postoperative diagnosis: recurrent urosepsis caused by Enteroccocus faecalis, Klebsiella pneumoniae and Pseudomonas aeruginosa.

      For the next 3 years, the patient remained free of infection on IVIG replacement (0.6–0.8 g/kg) every 3–4 weeks, with a median IgG concentration of approximately 6 g/L. In October 2016, he underwent a transurethral resection of the prostate and soon afterward developed diarrhea and significant weight loss. He was again admitted to our hospital, but after extensive investigation, no infectious or immune‐mediated cause could be found. There was an excellent response to a short course of a higher dose of oral prednisolone (30 mg/day, tapered over the next 2 months to 5 mg/day). In February 2017, he was admitted to his local hospital with left‐sided epididymo‐orchitis and rapidly died from hospital‐acquired pneumonia.

      CasePreviousTesting: Broad genetic screening using a custom panel of many immune‐related genes using an ion proton next‐generation sequencer, followed by Sanger sequencing, was performed at the Laboratory of Clinical and Infectious Diseases of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, Bethesda, Maryland. See Table 1.

      GenotypingMethod: CTLA‐4 sequencing was performed after amplification of the four exons. See Table 1.

      Case#: N/A. This patient is the only one studied in this paper. Female. Age of Onset: 11 y.o. Age of evaluation: 13 y.o. Origin not specified but looking at the author information, I believe it can be safely inferred that the patient is originally from Japan.

      DiseaseAssertion: Autoimmune enteropathy with CTLA4 haploinsufficiency

      FamilyInfo: Patient had no family history of autoimmune diseases, except for hypothyroidism in her mother and hyperthyroidism in her sister. The patient’s mother and sister were found to have the same heterozygous mutation, but they showed only thyroid gland dysfunction that was manageable with medication, which suggests incomplete penetrance.

      CasePresentingHPOs: HP:0002720 (low IgA), OMIM:188030 (immune thrombocytopenic purpura (ITP)), sometimes accompanied by HP:0001890 (autoimmune hemolytic anemia), HP:0001882 (leukopenia), and ORPHA:56425 (cold agglutinin disease).

      CaseHPOFreeText: Persistent watery diarrhea, immunoglobulin A (IgA) deficiency with low IgG2 and IgG4 subclass, recurrent immune thrombocytopenic purpura (ITP).

      The patient had CTLA4 haploinsufficiency and was positive for anti-AIE-75 autoantibody but was successfully treated with 6-mercaptopurine (6-MP)

      Patient was suspected of having interstitial nephritis

      The patient responded well to prednisolone (PSL; 2 mg/kg/day) that was used to treat ITP at every onset, and the treatment was successfully tapered off. However, watery diarrhea appeared during the tapering of PSL while the treatment for the fifth episode of ITP was ongoing.

      Her height was 155 cm (third to fifth percentile) and weight was 48 kg (fifth percentile)

      In our patient, clinical remission was achieved with 40 mg/day of PSL. Clinical remission was maintained on 6-MP even after cessation of PSL for 4 years.

      CaseNotHPOs: N/A.

      CaseNotHPOFreeText: After analyzing the patient’s past laboratory data, we found that following cessation of PSL, ITP relapsed in association with the normalization of IgG levels (861–1,747 mg/dL). In addition, we found that serum levels of sIL-2R were extremely elevated at the onset of AIE. There was no manifestation of AIE, ITP, or other autoimmune diseases for 4 years, while the dose of 6-MP was adjusted to keep the levels of IgG and sIL-2R below 700 mg/dL and 1,500 U/mL, respectively (Fig. 3).

      Flow cytometry analysis showed reduced frequency of CD4+ CD25+ FOXP3+ Tregs (Fig. 4) [10]. Consistent with clinical remission of AIE, an endoscopy and histological study 3 years after the achievement of remission demonstrated recovery from villous atrophy (Fig. 5). After 4 years of 6-MP administration, we tried to reduce the amount of 6-MP because we were concerning about the risk of secondary malignancies such as malignant lymphoma caused by 6-MP. Unfortunately, it led to the relapse of diarrhea and ITP along with soar up of serum level of rIL-2 receptor (Fig. 3).

      CasePreviousTesting: The patient underwent many different types of testing:

      None of the viruses, namely, adenovirus, enterovirus, cytomegalovirus, Epstein-Barr virus, norovirus, and rotavirus, were detected in the patient’s stool sample using polymerase chain reaction. In addition, no pathogenic bacteria were cultured from the stool. Besides, a toxin detection test for Clostridium difficile also yielded negative results. A computed tomography scan of her abdomen revealed a small volume of ascites.

      An esophagogastroduodenoscopy and a colonoscopy demonstrated prominent atrophy of the villus in the duodenum (Fig. 1A) and terminal ileum. Colon was intact endoscopically (Fig. 1B). Histopathological examinations of the duodenum and ileum showed severe villous atrophy. Crypt apoptosis, and infiltration of lymphoplasmacytes into the lamina propria were seen in the biopsies of duodenum, ileum, and colon (Fig. 1C-​-E).E). Immunostaining of the normal small intestine tissue with the patient’s serum showed positive staining of the brush borders of the intestinal epithelium, indicating the presence of anti-enterocyte autoantibodies in the serum of the patient (Fig. 2A and ​andB).B). Furthermore, autoantibodies against AIE-75 were detected by Western blotting, using a recombinant protein as an antigen (Fig. 2C). The patient was diagnosed with AIE and was administered an increased dose of PSL (40 mg/day) as induction therapy.

      Whole-exome sequencing demonstrated a heterozygous missense mutation in the CTLA4 gene. Flow cytometry analysis showed reduced frequency of CD4+ CD25+ FOXP3+ Tregs

      DiseaseAssertion: CTLA4 haploinsufficiency in a patient with Epstein–Barr virus-positive diffuse large B-cell lymphoma and subsequent benign lymphadenopathy

      FamilyInfo: A missense mutation in exon 2 of the CTLA4 gene (c.251T>C, p.V84A) was found in the patient’s peripheral blood and buccal cell DNA, but not in her parents’ DNA.

      Neither of the parents had this mutant allele of CTLA4 (Figure 3A) and the case was considered to be sporadic.

      CasePresentingHPOs: HP:0001047 (Atopic dermatitis), HP:0012378 (fatigue), HP:0001945 (fever), HP:0002716 (Lymphadenopathy/swollen lymph nodes), HP:0001744 (splenomegaly).

      CaseHPOFreeText: Mild atopic dermatitis, high fever, multiple swollen lymph nodes, systemic lymphadenopathy and multiple bone lesions.

      CTLA4 expression decreased in the peripheral regulatory T cells upon stimulation, whereas CTLA4 and PD-1-positive T cell subsets increased, possibly to compensate for the defective CTLA4 function

      Although the patient had no history of autoimmune disease or specific infections, her uncommon clinical course led us to perform genetic screening for congenital immune dysfunction, and a missense germline mutation in CTLA4 was identified.

      CaseNotHPOs: N/A

      CaseNotHPOFreeText: N/A

      CasePreviousTesting: Immunohistochemistry was performed with antibodies against the following proteins: CD20 (346595, BD Biosciences, San Jose, CA), CD3 (349201, BD Biosciences), CD30 (clone Ber-H2, Roche, Mannheim, Germany), CD15 (Carb-3, Dako, Santa Barbara, CA), Ki-67 (clone MIB-1, Dako), EBV LMP-1 (CS-1-4, Dako), EBV EBNA2 (PE2, Dako), CTLA4 (sc-376016, Santa Cruz Biotechnology, Santa Cruz, CA), and FOXP3 (clone PCH101, eBioscience, San Diego, CA). Immunohistochemistry was performed using an automatic immunostainer (BenchMark, Ventana Medical Systems, Tucson, AZ and BOND-III system, Leica Microsystems, Bannockburn, IL) in accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions.

      Epstein–Barr virus detection was performed by in situ hybridization using an EBV-encoded small non-polyadenylated RNA probe on an automated system (Ventana Medical systems for Figure 1B, g, and Leica Microsystems for Figure 2B, e).

      Peripheral blood mononuclear cells were separated from the peripheral blood of the patient and two healthy donors using a Ficoll-Paque density gradient (Cedarlane), and total T cells were collected by negative selection using MACS Cell Separation Technology (Miltenyi Biotec, Bergisch Gladbach, Germany). Total RNA was extracted using the RNeasy Mini kit, and complementary DNA (cDNA) was synthesized using a SuperScript III First-Star and Synthesis system (Life Technologies, Carlsbad, CA, USA). qRT-PCR was performed using TB Green Premix Ex Taq II (Takara Bio, Otsu, Japan). The primers used for the amplification are listed in Table 1. The expression levels of FOXP3, CTLA4, and PDCD1 were normalized to that of ACTB.

      [18F]-Fluorodeoxy-d-glucose positron emission tomography (FDG-PET)-computed tomography (CT) revealed systemic lymphadenopathy, splenomegaly, and multiple bone lesions (Figure 1A). Laboratory data included increases in lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) to 1,127 IU/L (normal range, 117–236 IU/L), soluble interleukin-2 receptor (sIL-2R) to 10,500 U/mL (145–519 U/mL), and β2-microglobulin to 4.6 µg/mL (1.0–1.9 µg/mL). Serum IgG and IgA moderately decreased to 651 mg/dL (870–1,700 mg/dL) and 28 mg/dL (110–410 mg/dL), respectively, whereas IgM was normal (78 mg/dL; normal range 35–220 mg/dL). The patient’s serum was negative for human immunodeficiency virus-1 antibody.

      Histological analysis of the biopsied right axillar lymph node first led to a diagnosis of classic Hodgkin lymphoma (cHL), but the diagnosis was later revised to EBV-positive DLBCL with a T-cell-rich large B-cell lymphoma-like pattern (Figure 1B). The large tumor cells were positive for CD20, CD30 (weak, 30%), and EBV-encoded small RNA (EBER)-in situ hybridization (ISH), and negative for CD3 and CD15. Ki-67 was positive in 80% of the tumor cells. The tumor cells expressed EBV latent membrane protein 1 (LMP-1), but lacked EBV nuclear antigen 2 (EBNA2), and exhibited a type 2 latency pattern (Figure 1C). The patient was treated with one cycle of ABVD (doxorubicin, bleomycin, vinblastine, and dacarbazine) and six cycles of R-CHOP (rituximab, cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin, vincristine, and prednisolone), and achieved complete remission.

      Two years later, the patient developed cervical lymph node swelling (Figure 2A). Although the relapse of DLBCL was suspected, histological analysis of the biopsied cervical lymph node revealed only reactive follicular hyperplasia with a few, small EBER-positive cells (Figure 2B, a-e). The patient had normal blood cell counts with a relatively low lymphocyte count of 590/µL (normal range, 400–3,700/µL) and normal lymphocyte subsets (CD3+ T cells, 72.1%; CD3+CD4+ T cells, 38.5%; CD3+CD8+ T cells, 28.1%; CD56+ NK cells, 12.7%; CD19+ B cells, 15.2%). However, the serum immunoglobulin levels further decreased (IgG 320 mg/dL, IgA 10 mg/dL, IgM 40 mg/dL). The serum EBV-DNA was 190 copies/µg of DNA when evaluated after 1 cycle of ABVD and became negative after the next cycle of chemotherapy. However, it became positive again half a year before the appearance of lymphadenopathy and remained positive at low levels thereafter (20–60 copies/µg of DNA).

      Persisting lymphadenopathy with low immunoglobulin levels and serum EBV-DNA positivity led us to consider the possibility of congenital immune dysfunction.

      We evaluated CTLA4 expression upon stimulation of peripheral regulatory T cells, which was markedly reduced according to flow cytometry6 (Figure 3B), and the patient was diagnosed with CTLA4 haploinsufficiency.

      GenotypingMethod: The patient’s peripheral blood DNA was screened for germline mutations (Kazusa DNA Research Institute, Chiba, Japan). A missense mutation in exon 2 of the CTLA4 gene (c.251T>C, p.V84A) was found and the mutation was confirmed by Sanger sequencing of the patient’s buccal cell DNA.

    1. A 27-month-old girl was referred due to recurrent fever, arthritis, and erythema nodosum to the rheumatology clinic of Mofid Children’s Hospital (Tehran, Iran). She was the second alive child of consanguineous marriage (G2P2L2) with a 3800-gram birth weight and a history of neurodevelopmental delays in walking (at the age of 21 months) and speaking (at the age of 24 months). There is no positive point in the family history, except for the mother, who had hypothyroidism and a history of frequent respiratory infections in childhood.She had a history of several hospital admissions after her birth. First, she was admitted at two months old with a fever and high levels of ESR and CRP. She received antibiotics for five days and was discharged with no signs or symptoms but still had high ESR and CRP.At 8 months old, she was evaluated due to failure to thrive (FTT). During patient examinations, the low heart rate, muffled heart sound, and massive pericardial effusion were found in her echocardiography. The pericardial effusion caused her to be hospitalized for 16 days in the intensive care unit (ICU). Pericardial effusion was tapped without any infectious resources. Pericardial effusion was treated with prednisolone, and she was discharged in good condition. Two months later, she was hospitalized again with recurrent pericardial effusion for 19 days. In evaluations, she had hypothyroidism and a little pericardial effusion. She was treated with dexamethasone, ibuprofen, and levothyroxine.Fourth and fifth hospitalizations occurred due to high-grade fever and elevated ESR and CRP levels at the 13th and 18th months of old, respectively.She got COVID-19 at 24 months old and was admitted to the hospital for the 6th time because of her past medical history. She had only a fever as a COVID-19 manifestation. After 4 months, she got COVID-19 again and had gastrointestinal manifestations without any adverse effects.At the age of 27 months, the patient was referred to the rheumatology clinic due to several episodes of high grade fever, inflammatory pericardial effusion, and active left knee arthritis with an increase in inflammatory marker levels without any localized origin, as well as an erythematous plaque on the leg and a history of multiple hospitalizations. A skin biopsy revealed septal panniculitis compatible with erythema nodosum. The patient was thoroughly evaluated in terms of rheumatology, her height, and weight were 82 cm and 10 kg in physical examination, respectively. We found blonde hair, frontal bossing, and macular rashes on limbs, and eventually, according to the lack of response to treatment and the history of respiratory infections, an immunological examination including CBC, CD markers, and immunoglobulins levels was performed. The clinical manifestations of the patient are shown in Fig. 1.Open in a separate windowFig. 1The clinical manifestation of the patient Low serum IgG levels, decreased CD4/CD8 ratio and CD27 level, and a poor response to candida in the lymphocyte transformation test (LTT) were detected (Table 1). Intravenous immunoglobulin (IVIG) and prophylactic antibiotics were started which led to the control of the patient’s fever and other symptoms.Table 1The results of hematological, biochemical and immunological tests of the patientTestValueNormal RangeTestValueNormal Range WBC(cell/mm 3 ) 89006000–17,000 IgM ( mg/dl) 5940–150 Neutrophil(cell/mm 3 ) 44501500–8500 IgG( mg/dl) 520600–1100 Lymphocyte(cell/mm 3 ) 36043000–9500 IgA ( mg/dl) 2151–297 Hb(g/dl) 7.411.5–13.5 IgE ( IU/ml) 1Up to 144 PLT 566,000150,000–450,000 CD3%(total count) 65.2 (3338)35–78% ANA NegativeNL < 1/160 CD4%(total count) 33 (1690)22–62% RF NegativeNeg < 10 CD8%(total count) 32.3 (1654)12–36% Anti Ds DNA NegativeNeg < 2.6 CD19%(total count) 11 (563)3–14% HLAB51 Negative CD20%(total count) 13.2 (676)3–15% Anti CCP NegativeNeg < 0.3 CD16%(total count) 15.4 (229)3–5% Anti Phospholipid Ab NegativeNegative CD56%(total count) 16.23–5%Anti SSA(RO)NegativeNeg < 15 CD4/CD8 1.021.5-2Anti SSB(La)NegativeNeg < 20 CD27% 3.909–35% ESR (mm/hr) 57 (H)Nl < 20 LTT(PHA) 7.1Nl˃3.5 CRP (mg/L) 43Nl < 6 LTT (Candida) 1.5Nl˃2.5Anti-Tetanus Ab(IU/ml)1.57˃0.1LTT (BCG)6.2Nl˃2.5Anti-Diphtheria Ab(IU/ml)0.29˃0.01Open in a separate windowWBC: White Blood cell, Hb: Hemoglobin, PLT: Platelet, ANA: AntiNuclear Antibody, RF: Rheumatoid Factor, Anti Ds DNA: Anti Double stranded DNA, Anti CCP: Anti Cyclic Citrullinated Peptide, Anti SSA Ab: anti–Sjögren’s-syndrome-related antigen A autoantibody, Anti SSB: anti–Sjögren’s-syndrome-related antigen B autoantibody, ESR: Erythrocyte Sedimentation Rate, CRP: C-reactive Protein, Ig: Immunoglobulin, LTT: lymphocyte transformation test, PHA: Phytohemagglutinin, BCG: Bacillus Calmette-Guerin After about 5 months of the follow-up, the patient was hospitalized due to polyuria, polydipsia, tachypnea, and lethargy with the diagnosis of diabetic ketoacidosis and was discharged with injectable insulin. Whole-exome sequencing was performed on the patient’s whole blood sample. Variant interpretation of interested variants was accomplished through the American College of Medical Genetics and Genomics (ACMG). A novel heterozygous variant (c.1429 G > A; p.Glu477Lys) was found in the PIK3CD gene (Table 2). The variant was validated in the patient, and segregation analysis showed the mother is the carrier for the variant. According to the ACMG guideline, this variant can be classified as a Variant of Unknown Significance (VUS).Table 2The result of genetic sequencing of the patientGene/TranscriptVariant LocationChromosome position(GRCh37)Relationship with the patientZygosityVariant classificationPIK3CDENST00000377346.4NM-005026Exon11c.1429G > Ap.E477KProbandHetVUSMotherHetFatherN

    1. We

      Case#: Case 1, male, Brazilian

      DiseaseAssertion: APDS1

      FamilyInfo: We identified a kinship that included 3 half-siblings with symptoms typical for APDS1. The patient's father (I.4), a truck driver, reported that in addition to the index case, he had 4 additional children with 3 other women living in different Brazilian cities along his truck route and that 2 of these children (II.4 and II.5) had symptoms similar to the index case (Fig 1A). Of his 5 children, 1 had died at 3 years of age (II.1) with clinical symptoms similar to the index case, including hepatosplenomegaly, fever, and recurrent infections; immunologic studies were not performed. The other symptomatic half-brother (II.5) was evaluated at 5 years of age with a history of 5 episodes of pneumonia, recurrent oral candidiasis, several upper respiratory infections, and hepatosplenomegaly. The pedigree suggested that the father (I.4) carried the same autosomal-dominant PIK3CD mutation that affected 3 sons born to different mothers. However, neither he nor the mothers of the affected boys had any symptoms suggestive of APDS. Sanger sequencing demonstrated that neither the father nor the mothers of the affected boys carried the identified PIK3CD mutation in blood. This raised the possibility of germline or gonadal mosaicism in the father. To test this hypothesis, genomic DNA was extracted from his semen. As illustrated in Figure 1F, semen-derived DNA carried the heterozygous p.E1021K mutation identified in the affected sons. Based on relative peak heights, we estimated that 20% to 25% of the semen carried the mutation.

      CaseHPOFreeText: The index case (II.4 in Fig 1A) had 10 episodes of pneumonia, 2 episodes of sepsis, several upper respiratory infections, and oral moniliasis within the first year of life. He subsequently developed hepatosplenomegaly, lymphadenopathy, and an axillary abscess owing to Candida albicans. At 3 years of age, laboratory investigation showed increased immunoglobulin (Ig) M (368 mg/dL) and IgG (1,450 mg/dL) levels, normal IgA level (107 mg/dL), low CD4 (330/mm3) and increased CD8 (1,229/mm3) counts, and low CD19 B cells (17/mm3). IgG subclasses showed normal absolute levels of IgG1 (1,020 mg/dL), IgG2 (79.0 mg/dL), IgG3 (78.3 mg/dL), and IgG4 (28.1 mg/dL); however, their ratio showed a proportional decrease of IgG2.

      GenotypingMethod: Sanger sequencing. Unclear if entire PIK3CD gene was sequenced across intron/exon boundaries.

      Variant: a heterozygous PIK3CD hotspot mutation (c.3061G→A, p.E1021K) was identified by Sanger sequencing.

      CaseHPOFreeText: Her clinical history included upper respiratory tract infections during adolescence and an episode of hidradenitis suppurativa at the age of 21 years. Family history was negative for primary immunodeficiencies. Immunological work up showed lymphopenia with hypogammaglobulinemia of all classes and absent response to vaccinations (Supplementary Table 1). T cells were present at normal percentages, while B cells were slightly below the lower range of the norm (Supplementary Table 1). The patient was diagnosed with CVID at 27 years of age and was started on immunoglobulin replacement treatment. During 20 years of follow-up, the clinical course of the patient was particularly mild: she only presented one episode of gastroenteritis at the age of 36 years, and occasional upper respiratory tract infections were treated with oral antibiotics. She has always remained negative for CMV and EBV. Annual abdominal ultrasonography showed a normal spleen size and no lymphoadenopathies. Lung CT scanning did not reveal mediastinal lymphoadenopathies or development of bronchiectasis during sequential lung CT scans (Supplementary Fig. 1). Endoscopic evaluation at 39 years revealed mild gastritis and duodenitis without T cell infiltrate with complete lack of plasma cells (Supplementary Fig. 2). Regarding the immunological evolution during follow-up, lymphopenia was persistent over time (Fig. 1A). In addition, the patient showed a progressive reduction of peripheral B cells (Fig. 1A and Supplementary Table 1) with lack of terminal B cell differentiation (Supplementary Table 2). Bone marrow evaluation showed impaired B cell maturation with an accumulation of precursors at the pro-B to pre-B1 stage (Fig. 1B).

      CaseHPOFreeText: Suffered from Haemophilus b epiglottitis at the age of 2. He had received only one vaccine dose against diphtheria, tetanus, and poliomyelitis, due to parental choice, and had a history of recurrent respiratory tract infections. Biological features at diagnosis included: reduced serum levels of IgG2 and IgG4, normal IgA, IgG1, and IgG3 levels, and elevated IgM levels. The total lymphocyte count was normal but with quantitatively decreased T cells and CD21+ B cells, and an immune profile in favor of excessive memory CD4+ T cells. Later on, he suffered from frequent respiratory tract infections and a chest computed-tomography showed bronchiectasis at the age of 4. Digestive symptoms also appeared at the age of 4 when he presented with hematochezia related to colic malacoplakia (polypoid mucosal infiltration with histiocytes containing intra-cytoplasmic inclusions stained by Michaelis-Gutmann coloration) and lymphoid hyperplasia, which were both diagnosed on gastro-intestinal biopsies. From the age of 8 onward, he began to experience diarrhea that was linked to infections by Giardia and Cryptosporidium (diagnosed through acid-fast staining performed on stool samples). The cryptosporidiosis evolved toward a chronic infection with multiple episodic recurrences. He then developed celiac-mesenteric and hepatic lymphadenopathy, chronic ileitis with malabsorption syndrome, colitis with exudative diarrhea, and cholestasis with mild hepatic cytolysis due to grade II hepatic fibrosis (chronic hepatitis with inflammation and portal fibrosis, Metavir scoring F2-F3) with no sclerotic cholangitis. A recurrence of cryptosporidiosis accompanied by a C. difficile infection led to another intensive care unit stay, at the age of 9. Lymphadenopathy increased thereafter, with the appearance of hepatosplenomegaly, but lymphoma was not diagnosed on biopsies. He also developed cutaneous candidiasis, asymptomatic EBV reactivation (age 10) and persistent shedding of Adenovirus in the stools without viremia. The biological phenotype also worsened with time, leading to a TlowBlowNK+ CID. The evolution of the main immunologic parameters is shown in Fig. 1. Further analyses identified the following: absence of class-switched B cells, low and temporary immunoglobulin response to tetanus and diphtheria antigens and no response to Pneumococcus or Haemophilus b antigens, no lymphocyte proliferation to antigens after revaccination, and low or nonexistent proliferation with mitogens. Immunological explorations performed up to the age of 9 did not provide us with the precise diagnosis: IL-6 and IL-10 levels, double negative T cells, ADA and PNP levels, class I and II HLA molecules and CD40L, sequencing of CD40L and RAG1/2 genes, and Vβ repertoire of T cells were all normal. Proliferation of B cells with CD40L and IL-4 was present but weak.

      CaseHPOFreeText: The patient received the attenuated Bacillus Calmette-Guérin, polio, and measles vaccines without sequelae and was healthy until six years of age, when he presented with chronic diarrhea and polyarticular arthritis affecting his knees and ankles. He was empirically treated with steroids for two months, leading to complete resolution of his symptoms. Over the subsequent five years, he had episodes of colitis treated with prednisone, sulfasalazine, and methotrexate for presumed inflammatory bowel disease. Due to worsening colitis, he underwent an upper endoscopy and colonoscopy that revealed candida esophagitis as well as increased intraepithelial lymphocytes and moderate villous blunting in the duodenum. His laboratory evaluation was notable for leukocytosis, neutrophilia, mild monocytosis, and thrombocytosis (Table 1). He had normal numbers of T, B, and NK cells and normal percentages of T and B cell subsets. His serum levels of IgG and IgA were decreased. Ca2+ flux in response to anti-CD3 crosslinking on T cells was decreased (Fig. 1A), although proliferation to anti-CD3+CD28 stimulation was robust (Table 1). The patient was treated with immunoglobulin replacement therapy, antifungal prophylaxis, and prophylactic antibiotics, but died at the age of 14 years due to a severe pneumonia and sepsis shortly after the mutation was identified.

      FamilyInfo: born to not consanguineous parents of Rumenian origin

      CaseHPOFreeText: His clinical history was uneventful until the age of 12, when he presented arthralgias and arthritis of the right ankle. After 4 months, the patient was admitted in a peripheral hospital due to fever, diffuse rash followed by desquama- tion. Initial blood work-up revealed increased ferritin (40.000 μg/L; normal values: 30–400 μg/L) and increased AST (88 U/L; normal va- lues: 18–32 U/L). The index patient was transferred to our clinic where additional blood work-up confirmed increased ferritin and AST. Radiologic evaluation revealed splenomegaly and lymphadenomegaly. Bone marrow aspirate revealed the presence of rare hemophagocytes. Based on available diagnostic criteria, MAS/HLH was suspected (Supplemental Table 1). Natural killer (NK) cell activity was normal, and genetic screening for HLH-related genes did not yield any patho- genic variants. The patient was put on high-dose steroid treatment with good clinical response. Progressive reduction of steroids upon dismission led to a novel flair of the febrile condition, requiring a novel admission. High dose steroid treatment was repeated with good clinical response. Considering the initial articular involvement, anakinra was also added for a period of 8 weeks. Upon progressive treatment sus- pension, another flair of fever associated with malaise, diffuse lym- phadenopathies, pruritus and arthralgias occurred. Screening for in- fectious aetiologies (including Epstein Barr Virus (EBV), Cytomegalovirus (CMV)) yielded negative results. Whole body mag- netic resonance imaging (MRI) revealed diffuse lymphadenopathies (Fig. 1A, upper panels). Positron emission tomography (PET) confirmed increased glucose metabolism in lymph nodes and spleen, suggestive of lymphoma (Fig. 1A, lower panels). In order to exclude lymphoid ma- lignancies, a lymph node excision was performed. The inguinal lymph node (1.2 cm in maximum diameter) that was removed showed a pre- served architecture, with reactive B-cell follicles and expanded para- cortex (Supplemental Text and Supplemental Fig. S1).

      Case#: Patient 3, Korean, 13 year old, female

      DiseaseAssertion: APDS1

      CaseHPOFreeText: Previously diagnosed with selective IgA deficiency was reevaluated for other PIDs when she presented with multiple episodes of prolonged fever and enlargement of several lymph nodes. Patient 3 had a history of hospitalizations attributable to recurrent respiratory tract infections, cellulitis, and osteomyelitis. She was diagnosed with selective IgA deficiency at the age of 4 years at our hospital. Cervical lymph node enlargement was first noticed at the age of 6 years; hematochezia was also noted. Colon and cervical lymph node biopsies showed atypical lymphocyte proliferation with polyclonality, and persistent atypical lymphoid proliferation of the colon was observed at the age of 10 years. One colon biopsy specimen was suspicious for mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue lymphoma. The oncologists decided to observe the patient without special chemotherapy. During the follow-up period, we diagnosed and treated Patient 1 from the present case series, leading the clinicians to reevaluate Patient 3 for other PIDs. Upon reevaluation, the height and weight of Patient 3 were below the 5th percentile and development was normal. At the age of 12 years, laboratory values were WBC, 5410/µL; Hb, 8.5 g/dL; and PLT, 285k/µL. Immunological values were CD3, 391/µL (normal, 800–3500/µL); CD4, 194/µL (normal, 400–2100/µL); CD8, 190/µL (normal, 200–1200/µL); and CD19, 54/µL (normal, 200–600/µL). The CD4:CD8 ratio was 1.02. The response to phytohemagglutinin mitogen was reduced, while results from the same test performed 8 years prior were normal. Serum IgG, A, and M levels were 1920 mg/dL (normal, 639–1349 mg/dL), 3 mg/dL (normal, 70–312 mg/dL), and 1138 mg/dL (normal, 56–352 mg/dL), respectively. Hypermetabolic enlarged lymph nodes, splenomegaly, and bronchiectatic changes in the middle lobe of the right lung were observed on PET/CT. Summary of symptoms in Table 1.

      CaseHPOFreeText: history of idiopathic thrombocytopenic purpura, Bacillus Calmette-Guérin vaccine site infection, and respiratory tract infection requiring hospitalization was referred to our clinic for enlargement of multiple lymph nodes suspicious for lymphoma. Cervical lymph node enlargement was first noticed at 31 months old. At the age of 3 years, decreased IgG (89 mg/dL) with elevated IgM (347 mg/dL) and normal IgA (16 mg/dL) were detected at a prior hospital. He received regular IGRT under the interim diagnosis of CVID; however, trough IgG levels remained below 400 mg/dL despite receiving a higher IGRT dose (800 mg/kg) every 3 weeks. Patient 2 had a head circumference of 52.8 cm (95th percentile) and body weight of 17 kg (25–50th percentile). Multiple enlarged lymph nodes in the cervical, supraclavicular, and inguinal areas were palpated, and massive splenomegaly was noted. Molloscum contagiosum was observed on his buttocks. Complete blood count results included WBC, 3300/µL; Hb, 13.1 g/dL; and PLT, 157k/µL. Immunological values were CD3, 867/µL (normal, 1578–3707/µL); CD4, 241/µL (normal, 870–2144/µL); CD8, 613/µL (normal, 472–1107/µL); and CD19, 24/µL (normal, 276–640/µL). The CD4:CD8 ratio was 0.39 (Table 1). Positron emission tomography/computed tomography (PET/CT) findings showed enlargement of multiple lymph nodes, including the bilateral cervical, supraclavicular, and inguinal areas, and abnormal uptake in the whole intestine. A colonoscopy revealed multiple nodules and masses throughout the entire length of the colon. Cervical lymph node and large intestine biopsies revealed atypical lymphocyte proliferation with polyclonality (Fig. 1A–C) (Supplementary Fig. 1A and B, only online). A colon biopsy revealed CMV, and the patient complained of diarrhea. Summary of symptoms in Table 1.

      CaseHPOFreeText: diagnosed with common variable immunodeficiency (CVID) was referred to our clinic for persistent lymph node enlargement, hematochezia, and increased serum immunoglobulin (Ig)M. His medical history included double barrel enterostomy and segmental resection of the small intestine, attributable to intestinal malrotation and perforation in the neonatal period. He was diagnosed with hemolytic anemia at the age of 10 months and pancytopenia at the age of 15 months, after which he received steroid treatment. At the age of 21 months, he exhibited increased IgM (304 mg/dL; normal, 43–173 mg/dL) and decreased IgG (16 mg/dL; normal, 345–1236 mg/dL) and IgA (<1 mg/dL; normal, 11–106 mg/dL). Regular immunoglobulin-replacement treatment (IGRT, 500 mg/kg every 3 weeks) was initiated for CVID. At the age of 10 months, a lymph node biopsy revealed atypical lymphoid cell proliferation. At the age of 3 years, hematochezia gradually increased, and IgG trough levels were not well maintained (average, 333 mg/dL; normal, 345–1236 mg/dL) despite IGRT (500 mg/kg every 3 weeks). Patient 1 had a head circumference of 55 cm (>95th percentile) and body weight of 15 kg (<10th percentile), as well as multiple enlarged cervical lymph nodes and splenomegaly. Complete blood count values were white blood cells (WBC), 7910/µL (normal, 6000–15000/µL); hemoglobin (Hb), 10.9 g/dL (normal, 10.5–14.0 g/dL); and platelets (PLT), 122 k/µL (normal, 150–450 k/µL). Immunological values were CD3, 68%, 2320/µL (normal: 56–75%, 1400–3700/µL); CD4, 19%, 648/µL (normal: 28–47%, 700–2200/µL); CD8, 45%, 1535/µL (normal: 16–30%, 490–1300/µL); and CD19, 10%, 341/µL (normal: 8–39%, 180–1300/µL).

      CaseHPOFreeText: He was referred to our hospital at the age of 2 years with recurrent bronchopulmonary infections, lymphadenopathy, hepato-splenomegaly, liver disease (elevated transaminases and portal septal fibrosis at liver biopsy). He had increased serum IgM levels (4.25g/L), normal IgG (5.7 g/L) and decreased IgA (0.65g/L) levels, compatible with the diagnosis of CSR-D. The CD40L and CD40 defects were excluded and intravenous IgG substitution was initiated. At 8 years of age, he developed a high grade diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL, WHO classification) of biliary tract (Figure 1 a-c). In situ hybridization for Epstein Barr virus (EBV) was negative and Bcl-6 was expressed as shown by immunohistochemistry. The patient recovered after nine courses of chemotherapy (UKCCSG 9002 protocol; “see E3”). At 19 years of age, under IgG substitution, he again developed a high grade EBV(-) DLBCL of the colon, which was found to be Bcl-6 negative (Figure 1 d-f). He received CHOP (Cyclophophamide, vincristine, steroids) plus rituximab. He died from large bowel perforation and bleeding 12 days after the third course of chemotherapy.

      CaseHPOFreeText: belongs to a family in which two siblings were reported as suffering from a CSR-D (data from the affected sister P7 “see Tables E1 and E2”). From the age of 5 months, he suffered recurrent upper (recurrent acute otitis media) and lower respiratory tract infections complicated by bronchiectasis, chronic non-infectious diarrhea with malabsorption syndrom and failure to thrive. Other infections were also noticed, including pericarditis caused by Echo virus infection and recurrent synovitis. The diagnosis of CSR-D was made, according to his familial history and IgG substitution was started. At 6 and 8 years of age, he displayed episodes of massive enlargement of lymph nodes (cervical and mesenteric) with no malignant feature at biopsy. Serum Ig levels revealed an increase of IgM (4.5g/L at 5 years and 13g/L at 11 years) and a decrease of IgG (<1.9g/L) and IgA (0.41 g/L). At 11 years of age, he had a new episode of cervical lymph nodes enlargement which led to the diagnosis of Hodgkin disease, histological type nodular sclerosis, stage III with localization to cervical, mediastinum, retroperitoneum and spleen (EBV status was unknown and could not be studied retrospectively) (Figure 1 g-i). Patient received chemotherapy and radiotherapy with irradiation of regions above and below diaphragma, which induced complete remission. He is now well on IgG substitution and prophylactic antibiotherapy with a follow-up of more than 10 years.

      DiseaseAssertion: APDS (She was diagnosed with polymorphous B-cell lymphoproliferative disorder)

      FamilyInfo: no family history suggestive of an immunodeficiency

      CaseHPOFreeText: referred by pulmonary to clinical immunology for evaluation of her recurrent pneumonias and bronchiectasis. Work-up at that time revealed IgA < 6 (34–305 mg/dL), IgG 30 (572–1,474 mg/dL), IgM 1190 (31–208 mg/dL). In addition to low levels of IgG and IgA but elevated IgM levels, immune evaluation revealed T and B cell lymphopenia −827 (876–3,394 CU MM) and 28 (200–1,259/CU MM), respectively. Her CD4 count was 331 (412–2,095/CU MM) and CD8 count was 481 (236–995/CU MM). She had a normal response to lymphocyte mitogen and antigen stimulation. Due to these results and her clinical history, she was started on intravenous immunoglobulin replacement which helped decrease her incidence of infections. As she grew older she began to have increased hospitalizations for hemolytic anemia and recurrent pneumonias and sinusitis. She also developed lymphadenopathy and splenomegaly. She received rituximab with resultant improvement in her counts and decrease in size of her lymphadenopathy and hepatosplenomegaly. She was also started on trimethoprim/sufamethoxazole prophylaxis to help prevent infections, and though she continued to have intermittent respiratory infections the amount was improved. In addition to asymmetrical cervical lymphadenopathy and parotid gland enlargement Figures 2A,B, a CT neck/chest/abdomen and pelvis done at that time showed mediastinal, hilar, abdominal, and pelvic lymphadenopathy, impressive retroperitoneal lymphadenopathy, hepatosplenomegaly, and cecum and terminal ileum thickening Figures 2C,D.

    1. Case Report

      Case#: 19 year old, Indian, male

      DiseaseAssertion: APDS

      FamilyInfo: Neither parent carried this mutation, suggesting a de novo origin.

      CaseHPOFreeText: referred for the evaluation of chronic active EBV disease. The patient’s medical history revealed congenital stenosis of the left bronchus, recurrent sinopulmonary infections, and autism spectrum disorder with an IQ of 80–86. EBV seroconversion was identified at 7 years of age when the patient presented idiopathic abdominal lymphadenopathy. Furthermore, a previous laboratory examination revealed IgA deficiency and low IgG2 and IgG4 levels without an overarching diagnosis. Four months before presentation, the patient developed fatigue, fever, night sweats, hepatosplenomegaly, anemia, hepatitis, weight loss of 10 kg, and lymphadenopathy (Fig. 1). Serum EBV copy numbers were repeatedly > 1500/mL. Histology of the three lymph nodes did not reveal any evidence of malignant lymphoma, but rather a markedly positive EBV-encoded RNA (EBER). Chronically active EBV was diagnosed, and rituximab therapy of 500 mg weekly during 4 weeks was initiated. A stable condition without any additional immunosuppressive drugs was achieved for 3 months after which he developed high spiking fever, pneumonia, progressive lymphadenopathy, severe unexplained cardiomyopathy with progressive anemia, thrombocytopenia, and hyperferritinemia (Table ​(Table1).1). Malignant lymphoma was excluded and hemophagocytosis was detected in the bone marrow (Fig. 3A, B). The patient therefore fulfilled six out of eight diagnostic HLH-04 criteria (Table ​(Table2)2) [7]. His clinical status quickly deteriorated, and he developed acute respiratory distress syndrome and multiple organ failure. Salvage therapy was initiated with high-dose steroids, sirolimus, and intravenous immunoglobulin. PI3K delta inhibitors were withheld due to heart and respiratory failure. Etoposide was withheld due to leucopenia and severe sepsis with systemic infection (hospital acquired pneumonia with H. influenza, not responding to treatment). Within 1 month, the patient died from cardiac failure with refractory pulmonary edema.

      FamilyInfo: The patient was the first of three children from a non-consanguineous family of Albanian origin

      CaseHPOFreeText: presented with recurrent otitis media, respiratory infections, persistent splenomegaly and nonmalignant lymphadenopathy. In the first year of life, she had recurrent episodes of wheezing associated with viral infections. In four occasions, she developed otitis media. Clinical evaluation at 17 months of age revealed splenomegaly suggesting Autoimmune lymphoproliferative disease (ALPS), but analysis of CD4 − /CD8 − /TCR alpha/beta + T cells was normal. In addition, bone marrow morphology and karyotype were normal. At the age of 21 months, the patient was hospitalized due to an additional episode of otitis caused by multidrug resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa . Since then, she suffered of recurrent otorrhea, due to Haemophilus influenzae and Moraxella catarrhalis . Virological testing ( Table 1 ) revealed chronic low-level Epstein–Barr virus (EBV) viraemia characterized by EBV-DNA persistence and elevated anti-VCA IgM (total viral load ranging from negative to 506 copies/ml; VCA IgM ranging from 43 AU/ml to 186 AU/ml).

    1. We conducted WGS on a 20-year-old Spanish proband (only child), who exhibited classical symptoms of IDAIL, including early-onset type 1 diabetes (diagnosed at 15 months old), severe enteritis, genital vitiligo and atopic dermatitis. Throughout his childhood, he faced recurrent respiratory infections, including pneumonia, alongside pronounced reactive hypereosinophilia, which constituted up to approximately 65% of total peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) at times. Notably, at the age 13, he experienced severe diarrhea and ascites, accompanied by eosinophil infiltration in the esophagus, stomach, and bone marrow. Medical investigations revealed a clonal γδ T cell band, characterized as reactive, with subsequent exclusion of FIP1L1-PDGFRA and PDGFRB rearrangements, as well as any abnormal karyotype. Over time, he developed esophageal candidiasis and sepsis due to Salmonella typhi and Clostridium difficile infection, which was accompanied by a gradual development of hypogammaglobulinemia. A complete clinical case description is included in the Supplementary Materials.Bioinformatic analysis revealed a known pathogenic maternally inherited missense variant in CTLA4, c.208C>T p.R70W, confirmed by Sanger sequencing (Fig. 1, A to D). This heterozygous variant has been previously reported to be causative of CTLA4-h with incomplete penetrance (1, 2). The R70W variant was also present in the patient’s mother who had been diagnosed with mild sarcoidosis, dysphagia with eosinophilic infiltrates of esophagus, low IgM, and decreased percentages of memory B cells.

      Case#: 20-year-old Spanish man

      DiseaseAssertion: Immune dysregulation with autoimmunity, immunodeficiency, and lymphoproliferation

      FamilyInfo: Maternally inherited CTLA4 variant and paternally inherited CLEC7A variant. Patient's mother had been diagnosed with mild sarcoidosis, dysphagia with eosinophilic infiltrates of esophagus, low IgM, and decreased percentages of memory B cells.

      CaseHPOFreeText: Type 1 diabetes was diagnosed at 15 months old. Patient has a history of severe enteritis. Investigations, which were undertaken due to hypereosinophilia and eosinophilic infiltration, revealed a clonal γδ T cell band, characterized as reactive, with subsequent exclusion of FIP1L1-FDGFRA and PDGFRB rearrangements, as well as any abnormal karyotype. Sepsis was due to Salmonella typhi and Clostridium difficile infection.

      Article provides functional evidence of CLEC7A variant affecting phenotype of this patient. Their data suggest that partial loss of DECTIN-1 in a patient with CTLA-4h may enhance IDAIL penetrance and confer additional unique phenotypes, with persistent marked hypereosinophilia as the most remarkable uncommon clinical manifestation.

    1. patient is the only daughter of non-consanguineous parents of Italian origin. At the age of 5 years, she had repeated episodes of hematochezia, which progressively evolved into chronic bloody mucous diarrhea lasting for over 4 weeks (9). When the girl was firstly evaluated at 5.5 years of age, physical examination was normal, and growth was regular. Her family and personal history were unremarkable, without any opportunistic or severe infection. Stool culture for bacteria and stool tests for viruses and parasites were negative. Fecal calprotectin showed repeatedly elevated results (>2,100 μg/g, normal value < 50 μg/g), while C-reactive protein and erythrocyte sedimentation rate were normal. Anti-neutrophil cytoplasmic antibodies (ANCA) and anti-Saccharomyces cerevisiae antibodies (ASCA) were negative. Sugar intestinal permeability was markedly altered (lactulose/mannitol ratio 0.09, normal value < 0.03). Upper and lower gastrointestinal digestive endoscopy showed numerous small nodules throughout the entire gastrointestinal tract from the stomach to the rectum (Figures 1A–F), whose histopathologic features were consistent with the diagnosis of NLH (Figures 1G–I). No signs of chronic intestinal inflammation or autoimmune enteropathy, such as enterocyte apoptosis, were observed in the multiple biopsies taken at endoscopy.

    2. Whole-exome sequencing with phenotype-driven analysis was performed, focusing on genes primarily implicated in immunological diseases (11, 12), revealing the presence of the heterozygous variant p.Glu525Gly (c.1574A>G) in the PIK3CD gene. Sanger sequencing confirmed the presence of this variant, and segregation analysis demonstrated its de novo occurrence (Figures 2A,B). The variation affects the same codon of two previously reported PIK3CD variants causing APDS, namely, c.1573G>A, p.(Glu525Lys) and c.1573A>C, p.(Glu525Ala) (Figure 2C) (13, 14). It has not been identified previously, and it is absent from the largest allele frequency databases (gnomAD, EVS, and 1000 Genomes Project).
    3. The gain-of-function effect of the variant was confirmed by demonstration of over activation of the Akt/mTOR pathway in the patient's cells. APDS diagnosis led to treatment with sirolimus, which resulted in the complete remission of NLH and in the prevention of extra intestinal complications. In conclusion, we identify APDS as a novel cause of isolated NLH and suggest that patients with severe pan-enteric NLH should be screened for this disorder that may not be apparent on first-line immunological testing.

      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. 14-year old female index patient

      Case#: 14-year old female index patient, F, Age of Report:, Ethnicity: Austrian.

      CasePresentingHPOs: HP:0001252 (Hypotonia), HP:0001945 (Fever), HP:0025297 (Prolonged), HP:0001873 (Thrombocytopenia), HP:0002155 (Hypertriglyceridemia), HP:0025435 (Increased circulating lactate dehydrogenase concentration/increased lactate dehydrogenase), HP:0003281 (Increased circulating ferritin concentration/markedly elevated ferritin), HP:0012156 (Hemophagocytosis),

      CaseHPOFreeText: Here we investigated a 14-year old female index patient, born to non-consanguineous healthy Austrian parents, who was hospitalized with severe hypotonia and prolonged fever. She had neither lymphadenopathy nor hepatosplenomegaly, and no infectious agent was found. Initial laboratory findings showed a mild thrombocytopenia, hypertriglyceridemia, increased lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) and markedly elevated ferritin (Table 1 and Figure 1A), prompting work up for hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis (HLH). Hemophagocytosis was indeed visible in the bone marrow aspirate (Figure 1B). Soluble CD25 was mildly elevated at 2204 U mL-1 (Table 1) but below the levels typically seen in HLH.6 NK-cell activity as measured by CD107a expression upon stimulation was in the low normal range in the initial diagnostic (Table 1). The presence of fever, hypertriglyceridemia, hyperferritinemia and hemophagocytosis, did not allow the diagnosis of HLH, but gave evidence of macrophage activation in the context of a hyperferritinemic inflammatory syndrome (Table 1).6We initiated treatment with dexamethasone, leading to clinical improvement and normalization of LDH and ferritin levels. Tapering of dexamethasone resulted in clinical deterioration and rise in ferritin (Figure 1A), and was accompanied by the development of autoimmune neutropenia as documented by HNA-1b antibodies. As the disease was distinct from classical HLH,6 we decided to treat the patient with recombinant human anti-IL-1β (Anakinra, 100 mg twice daily) in combination with dexamethasone, rather than using the etoposide-based HLH-94 protocol. We discontinued dexamethasone treatment after eight weeks and, one month later, reduced the Anakinra dose to a maintenance dose of 100 mg daily. The patient has remained clinically stable and is currently receiving Anakinra (decreased to 60 mg once daily) without any inflammatory manifestations. Immunological characterization of patient peripheral blood in the asymptomatic phase after ceasing dexamethasone revealed reduced absolute natural killer (NK)-cell counts and low frequency of monocytes, and slightly low absolute lymphocyte counts (Table 1)..

      CaseHPOFreeText: A female patient (hereafter called A.1) from a European-American family presented at nine years of age with fatigue and hemolytic anemia followed by early obstructive pulmonary impairment. A subsequent chest CT scan revealed bilateral nodular infiltrates and areas of patchy, peripheral-basal consolidation in lungs, and histological examination revealed a pattern of interstitial CD3+ lymphocytic infiltration, foamy histiocytes, scattered noncaseating granulomas, and luminal obstruction initially characterized as cryptogenic organizing pneumonia (Fig. 1a–b). Further follow up and analysis revealed clinical progression to hypogammaglobulinemia, thrombocytopenia, various lymphopenias, eosinophilia, mediastinal and hilar lymphadenopathy, and splenomegaly (Table 1). More recently, at sixteen years of age, patient A.1 developed enterocolitis with diarrhea and abdominal pain. Histological assessment of gut tissue revealed interstitial infiltrate of more than 25 CD3+ lymphocytes per 100 epithelial cells (Fig. 1b, bottom). Episodes of pneumonitis and colitis continue to recur intermittently, have an apparent noninfectious etiology (with separate incidences of infectious colitis), and respond to pulse doses of corticosteroids and steroid-sparing measures including mycophenolate mofetil.

      The childhood of patient A.1 was remarkable for recurrent sinopulmonary, ear, skin, and urinary tract infections (commonly with S. aureus), chronic nasal congestion, and eczema. Additional episodes of colitis were sometimes associated with stool cultures positive for C. difficile and Salmonella. Vaccination responses were protective for tetanus, borderline protective for diphtheria, and protective for 4 of 23 pneumococcal strains. Warm autoimmune hemolytic anemia at nine years of age (preceding the initial pneumonitis by several months) was treated with steroids and blood transfusions; a recurrence of autoimmune cytopenias at seventeen years prompted CD20+ B cell depletion with rituximab. Patient A.1 is currently treated with immunoglobulin replacement therapy to restore humoral protection and mycophenolate mofetil to suppress inflammation.

      CaseHPOFreeText: Proband was noted to have "characteristic facial gestalts/"characteristic facial dysmorphim", low weight at birth,

      The proband was admitted to our department due to irregular menstrual cycle and hirsutism with short stature, who had a history of intrauterine growth restriction and presented with short stature, teething delay, characteristic facial gestalts, hirsutism, and thyroid disease. Whole-exome sequencing and Sanger sequencing revealed c.1960C > T, a novel de novo nonsense mutation, leading to the termination of protein translation (p. Gln654*).

      This is the first case report of SHORT syndrome complicated with thyroid disease in China, identifying a novel de novo heterozygous nonsense mutation in PIK3R1 gene (p. Gln654*).

      The phenotypes are mildly different from other cases previously described in the literature, in which our patient presents with lipoatrophy, facial feature, and first reported thyroid disease. Thyroid disease may be a new clinical symptom of patients with SHORT syndrome.

      The patient was a girl born to a physically healthy and non-consanguineous couple by spontaneous delivery at the 37th week. Birth weight was 2150 g (− 3.39SD) and birth length was 44 cm (− 3.41SD), indicating that the patient had intrauterine growth restriction (IUGR). The proband also had teething delay, getting the first tooth at 1 year old. During childhood, the patient was bothered by short stature. Psychomotor and speech development was normal. The height of proband’s father and mother was 168 cm and 155 cm respectively. The patient also had a healthy 20-month-old brother.

      At the age of 15 years and 4 months, the proband was referred to our department due to irregular menstrual cycle and hirsutism with a height of 149 cm (− 2.04SD), weight of 43 kg (− 1.22SD) and body mass index (BMI) of 19.4 kg/m2. The height of the proband had remained 149 cm, ever since 13 years old. Physical examination showed a triangular-shaped face, small chin, large low-set ears, thin lip, downturned mouth, obvious beard and bushy eyebrows (Fig. 1a,b,c,d). Oral examination showed overcrowded and irregular teeth, hypodontia, and severe dental caries (Fig. 1g). Pubertal development was assessed according to the Tanner stage, with pubic hair at PH5 stage and breast at B2 stage. The second phalanx of little finger in the left hand was short and thicken, which was confirmed with X-ray (Fig. 1e,f). Ultrasound of neck showed diffuse thyroid disease. Ultrasound biomicroscopy of the eyes, examination of ocular fundus, abdominal ultrasound, reproductive system ultrasound, and chest X-ray were normal. The cranial magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) indicated a small posterior pituitary.

      VariantEvidence: A novel de novo heterozygous nonsense mutation in the PIK3R1 gene (p. Gln654*) was found in the proband.

      WES was performed to make a clear clinical diagnose. The candidate variants were first screened by a minor allele frequency < 3% against the 1000 Genomes Project, the NHLBI exome variant server or in 50 HapMap control exomes. Then, short stature, facial abnormalities were selected as the filtering clinical symptoms to analyze the screened candidate variants. According to the guidelines recommended by the American College of Medical Genetics and Genomics, a pathogenic variant of PIK3R1 gene was identified to contribute to the patient’s conditions. Sequencing result indicated c.1960C > T of PIK3R1 gene a novel nonsense mutation, leading to the termination of protein translation (p. Gln654*), which was confirmed by sanger sequencing (Fig. 2). In addition, direct sequencing results showed the genotypes of proband’s parents were wild-type, suggesting it was a de novo mutation.

      CaseAddInfo: The height of proband’s father and mother was 168 cm and 155 cm respectively. The patient also had a healthy 20-month-old brother.

      CaseHPOFreeText: To the best of our knowledge, this is the first case report of SHORT syndrome with TNDM.

      The patient was a newborn male and the only child of a healthy non-consanguineous Korean couple with a non-contributory family history. The height of his father and mother was 170 cm (−0.70 SD score) and 160 cm (−0.04 SD score), respectively. They had no dysmorphic features. The mother had regular antenatal check-up and did not have any history of medical and obstetric problems during pregnancy. He was born at 38 weeks of gestation but displayed features of IUGR during pregnancy. His birth weight was 1.8 kg (<3rd percentile), length 44 cm (<3rd percentile), and head circumference 31 cm (<3rd percentile) according to the Korean reference for birth weight based on gestational age and sex. The initial blood glucose level was 70 mg/dl. The baby was exclusively breastfed starting on day 3 and was in generally good condition. However, blood glucose level was between 218 and 263 mg/dl at 5 day of age. At the age of 20 day, his blood glucose level was still high (205–260 mg/dl), and the infant was referred to the endocrine clinic for persistent hyperglycemia assessment. On physical examination, several dysmorphic features (triangular-shaped face, prominent forehead, ocular depression, lipodystrophy at the lumbar region) and inguinal hernia were present. The systolic and diastolic blood pressure measurements were 74 and 42 mmHg, respectively. The serum c-peptide and insulin levels were 2.83 ng/ml (normal: 1.0–3.5) and 120 μU/ml (normal: 2.8–13.5), respectively. Baseline chemistry including serum blood urea nitrogen was 15.3 mg/dl (normal: 7.0–20.0), creatinine 0.9 mg/dl (normal: 0.6–1.2), aspartate aminotransferase 38 U/L (normal: 14–40), and alanine aminotransferase 16 U/L (normal: 9–45), as well as complete blood count profile were within normal range. Urinalysis showed no glucose or ketones. There was no sign of ketoacidosis and the patient had no type 1 diabetes autoantibodies (antibodies against glutamic acid decarboxylase, islet cell, islet antigen-2, and insulin). The liver and pancreas ultrasonography revealed no structural abnormality. Echocardiography at the age of 1 month confirmed mild pulmonary stenosis and ASD secundum (2 mm) which did not require surgical intervention. Neonatal diabetes mellitus (NDM) was suspected on the basis of hyperglycemia occurring within the first month of life that lasted for >2 weeks and required insulin therapy. At age of 25 day, clinical exome sequencing was performed to identify the genetic cause of NDM.

      To monitor the glycemic level, his blood glucose was measured at the beginning of each feeding session. The patient was treated with subcutaneous insulin, and blood glucose level gradually stabilized. The blood glucose levels ranged from 110–250 mg/dl during the next 10 days. An adequate glucose level was achieved at 6 weeks of age without insulin treatment. His body weight was 4.4 kg (<3rd percentile) and his length was 61.6 cm (<3rd percentile) at 10 months of age. The patient experienced no hyperglycemic episode and the glycated hemoglobin was 5.0% and insulin level 2.8 μU/ml. At 10 months of age, the patient had no teeth erupted in the oral cavity.

      CaseHPOFreeText:The proband, 8 years of age, is the first child of non-consanguineous Caucasian parents. There are no manifestations of SHORT syndrome in the family. There is no family history of microcephaly or intellectual disability. Following an otherwise uneventful pregnancy, delivery was induced at 38 weeks of gestation on discovery of severe intrauterine growth restriction. His birth weight was 1.97 kg (<0.4th centile, −3.7 SD).

      Despite adequate nutritional intake, the patient's growth was significantly delayed. At 12 months of age, his weight was 6.88 kg (<0.4th centile, −3.2 SD), length was 69.5 cm (1st centile, −2.98 SD) and head circumference was 39.5 cm (<0.4th centile, −5.26 SD). Enteral tube feeding was initiated at 9 months of age, which the patient continues to remain dependent on today. Despite extensive investigation of the proband's feeding disorder, no organic cause was identified, and he was diagnosed with behavioral feeding difficulties. Follow-up consultations revealed a persistent development delay and sustained striking microcephaly. Dentition did not start until the age of 2.5 years. At 6 years of age, his weight was 16.2 kg (1st centile, −2.39SD), length was 105.4 cm (1st centile, −2.47 SD) and head circumference was 43.8 cm (<0.4th centile, −6.16 SD). Skeletal survey and extensive endocrine investigation did not find any abnormalities. The patient has not been formally diagnosed with diabetes and is awaiting an oral glucose tolerance test.

      Intellectual and psychomotor development is moderate to severely delayed. The patient first walked at 20 months, first smiled at 3 months and spoke his first words aged 3 years. At his current age of 8 years, he attends a special needs school and requires substantial multidisciplinary support. Magnetic resonance imaging of the brain and electroencephalogram performed at 12 months of age was normal. Neurometabolic investigation was also normal. Recurrent ophthalmology investigations revealed a myopic left eye and hypermetropic right eye at 4 years of age. No anterior chamber defects were noted and his ocular pressure was reported as normal. His hearing was formally assessed and reported as normal.

      Facial dysmorphic features are subtle but present (see Figure 2): triangular face, prominent forehead, broad eyebrows, slight upward-slanting palpebral fissures, and hypoplastic alae nasi leading to an impression of low columnella nasi. The patient has thin, wrinkled skin with visible veins, most prominently seen on his chest wall. He has hyperextensibility in his finger and elbow joints. Of note, local lipodystrophy of his proximal finger phalanges is also observed.

      CaseHPOFreeText: This is a 17-year-old female of Cuban descent, born to nonconsanguineous parents at 36 weeks gestational age to an uncomplicated pregnancy. Her birth weight and length were average for gestational age (7 pounds, 18 in.). She presented with a history of growth delay, short stature, and secondary tooth eruption delay. She measured below her growth curve at 1 year of age. She had growth hormone testing which resulted normal; however, she received growth hormone therapy from 3 to 10 years of age with a good response. At that time, she underwent genetic testing for short stature; however, no genetic causes of short stature were found. She has a history of irregular menses and dysmenorrhea with work-up for possible etiologies, including polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS), resulting negative. She has met all developmental milestones appropriately and has normal cognition.

      She has nonallergic rhinitis, mild intermittent asthma, and acute recurrent urticaria. Her history of infections includes recurrent episodes of otitis media since she was toddler requiring placement of 3 sets of ear tubes and tonsillectomy and adenoidectomy. She has a history of recurrent hordeolums and frequent episodes of vaginal candidiasis attributed to the many courses of antibiotics she has received for her various infections. She had one episode of Clostridium difficile colitis 6 months prior to presentation to our clinic. Prior immunologic evaluation at a different institution at 9 years of age was remarkable for low IgG levels, which ranged from 435 to 511 mg/dL [ref 759–1549 mg/dL]. A skin prick test to aeroallergens resulted negative. She did not receive intravenous immunoglobulin (IVIG) or subcutaneous immunoglobulin therapy at that time.

      Her physical exam was relevant for short stature (1 percentile, z = − 2.33), low weight for age (< 1 percentile, z = − 2.69), low BMI (15 percentile), and hyperextensible joints. Her facial features were significant for a prominent forehead, triangular face, low-hanging columella, thin upper lip, and aged appearance. Given concern for immune deficiency, a complete immune evaluation was obtained. Her results revealed hypogammaglobulinemia (IgG of 610 mg/dL [ref 694–1618 mg/dL]), with IgM and IgA within the reference range. The lymphocyte subset panel revealed remarkably low absolute B cells (34 cells/μL [ref 130–800 cells/μL]) and percentage (1% [ref 9–30%]). CD4 T cells were within the reference range, and CD8 T cell counts (1091 cells/μL [ref 240–890 cells/μL]) and percentage (40% [ref 17–36%]) were elevated. She had low CD4:CD8 ratio (0.84 [ref 1.00–2.90]). Follow-up B cell panel corroborated the finding of low absolute B cells (70 cells/μL [ref 100–500 cells/μL]) and revealed increased transitional B cells (6.6% CD19 + CD27-CD21-IgM+ [ref 0.5–2.8%]) and naïve B cells (5.9% CD19 + CD27-CD21-CD38- [ref 0.3–2.3%]). ImmunoCAP IgE to aeroallergens was negative, and total IgE was 2 kU/L [ref < 114 kU/L]. Vaccine boosters to S. pneumoniae, H. influenzae, diphtheria, and tetanus were given. Subsequent titers revealed protective antibodies to S. pneumoniae, H. influenzae, and diphtheria and absent response to tetanus. Her lymphocyte mitogen proliferation showed normal lymphocyte responses to phytohaemagglutinin, concanavalin A, and pokeweed mitogen. Viral testing was not performed. At this time, the decision was made to start amoxicillin prophylaxis and monthly IVIG replacement therapy.

      After initiating treatment with IVIG, our patient did not have new episodes of ear or sinus infections. IgG levels have remained within normal limits with monthly IVIG therapy. Given the finding of a PIK3R1 pathogenic variant and its known associations with SHORT syndrome, she was referred to ophthalmology and endocrinology. Of note, she started complaining of frequent headaches, not associated with administration of IVIG. Brain and cervical spine MRI revealed a Chiari I malformation for which she is being evaluated by neurosurgery.

      VariantEvidence: Results revealed a heterozygous “pathogenic variant” in PIK3R1 (c.1425 + 1G > C) with an autosomal dominant mode of inheritance in association with APDS2. This variant is a missense point mutation affecting a donor splice site in intron 11, resulting in exclusion of exon 11 (Fig. 1). Her parents are not carriers of this pathogenic variant, indicating this is a de novo mutation.

    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%.
