Project description:Analysis of the molecular etiologies of SCID has led to important insights into the control of immune cell development. Most cases of SCID result from either X-linked or autosomal recessive inheritance of mutations in a known causative gene. However, in some cases, the molecular etiology remains unclear. To identify the cause of SCID in a patient known to lack the protein-tyrosine phosphatase CD45, we used SNP arrays and whole-exome sequencing. The patient's mother was heterozygous for an inactivating mutation in CD45 but the paternal alleles exhibited no detectable mutations. The patient exhibited a single CD45 mutation identical to the maternal allele. Patient SNP array analysis revealed no change in copy number but loss of heterozygosity for the entire length of chromosome 1 (Chr1), indicating that disease was caused by uniparental disomy (UPD) with isodisomy of the entire maternal Chr1 bearing the mutant CD45 allele. Nonlymphoid blood cells and other mesoderm- and ectoderm-derived tissues retained UPD of the entire maternal Chr1 in this patient, who had undergone successful bone marrow transplantation. Exome sequencing revealed mutations in seven additional genes bearing nonsynonymous SNPs predicted to have deleterious effects. These findings are unique in representing a reported case of SCID caused by UPD and suggest UPD should be considered in SCID and other recessive disorders, especially when the patient appears homozygous for an abnormal gene found in only one parent. Evaluation for alterations in other genes affected by UPD should also be considered in such cases.

Project description:Recently, a novel syndrome of combined immune deficiency, infections, allergy, and inflammation has been attributed to mutations in the gene encoding actin-related protein 2/3 complex subunit 1B (ARPC1B), which is a key molecule driving the dynamics of the cytoskeleton. Homozygous mutations in the ARPC1B gene have been found to result in the disruption of the protein structure and cause an autosomal recessive syndrome of combined immune deficiency, impaired T-cell migration and proliferation, increased levels of immunoglobulin E (IgE) and immunoglobulin A (IgA), and thrombocytopenia. To date, only a few individuals have been diagnosed with the ARPC1B deficiency syndrome worldwide. In this case series, we report the wide spectrum of phenotype in 3 siblings of a consanguineous family from Afghanistan with a novel homozygous synonymous pathogenic variant c.783G>A, p. (Ala261Ala) of the ARPC1B gene that causes a similar syndrome but no thrombocytopenia. Targeted RNA studies demonstrated that the variant affects the splicing process of mRNA, resulting in a marked reduction of the levels of primary (normal) RNA transcript of the ARPC1B gene in the affected patients and likely premature termination from the abnormally spliced mRNA. The next generation sequencing (NGS) studies facilitated the diagnosis of this rare combined immunodeficiency and led to the decision to treat the affected patients with hematopoietic cell transplant (HCT) from an human leukocyte antigen (HLA)-matched healthy sibling.

Project description:ARPC1B is a key factor for the assembly and maintenance of the ARP2/3 complex that is involved in actin branching from an existing filament. Germline biallelic mutations in ARPC1B have been recently described in 6 patients with clinical features of combined immunodeficiency (CID), whose neutrophils and platelets but not T lymphocytes were studied. We hypothesized that ARPC1B deficiency may also lead to cytoskeleton and functional defects in T cells. We have identified biallelic mutations in ARPC1B in 6 unrelated patients with early onset disease characterized by severe infections, autoimmune manifestations, and thrombocytopenia. Immunological features included T-cell lymphopenia, low numbers of naïve T cells, and hyper-immunoglobulin E. Alteration in ARPC1B protein structure led to absent/low expression by flow cytometry and confocal microscopy. This molecular defect was associated with the inability of patient-derived T cells to extend an actin-rich lamellipodia upon T-cell receptor (TCR) stimulation and to assemble an immunological synapse. ARPC1B-deficient T cells additionally displayed impaired TCR-mediated proliferation and SDF1-α-directed migration. Gene transfer of ARPC1B in patients' T cells using a lentiviral vector restored both ARPC1B expression and T-cell proliferation in vitro. In 2 of the patients, in vivo somatic reversion restored ARPC1B expression in a fraction of lymphocytes and was associated with a skewed TCR repertoire. In 1 revertant patient, memory CD8+ T cells expressing normal levels of ARPC1B displayed improved T-cell migration. Inherited ARPC1B deficiency therefore alters T-cell cytoskeletal dynamics and functions, contributing to the clinical features of CID.

Project description:DNA ligase I deficiency is an extremely rare primary immunodeficiency with only 6 patients reported in the literature. Most common manifestations include radiosensitivity, macrocytic anemia, lymphopenia with an increased percentage of gamma-delta T cells, and hypogammaglobulinemia requiring replacement therapy. Two-month-old girl with delayed development, T-B-NK+ SCID, and macrocytic anemia presented features of Omenn syndrome. Whole exome sequencing revealed two novel, heterozygous variants (c.2312 G>A, p.Arg771Gly and c.776+5G>T, p.Pro260*) in the LIG1 gene (NM_000234.1). Hematopoietic stem cell transplantation from a fully matched unrelated donor was performed at the age of 4 months using GEFA03 protocol. Mixed donor-recipient chimerism was observed, with 60-70% chimerism in the mononucleated cell compartment and over 90% in T-lymphocyte compartment, but autologous myeloid recovery. Stable CD4+ and CD8+ T-cell counts above 200/µL were achieved after 2 months, but the patient remained transfusion-dependent. Despite satisfactory immunological reconstitution, the second transplantation due to constitutional hemolytic defect has been considered. In light of possible re-transplantation, an issue of optimal conditioning protocol with sufficient myeloid engraftment is important. For the first time Omenn syndrome is described in a compound heterozygote carrying two the novel variants p.Arg771Gly and p.Pro260* in the LIG1 gene. Patients diagnosed with SCID and Omenn syndrome showing macrocytic anemia, should be screened for DNA ligase I deficiency.

Project description:The T cell receptor (TCR) signaling pathway is an ensemble of numerous proteins that are crucial for an adequate immune response. Disruption of any protein involved in this pathway leads to severe immunodeficiency and unfavorable clinical outcomes. Here, we describe an infant with severe immunodeficiency who was found to have novel biallelic mutations in SLP76. SLP76 is a key protein involved in TCR signaling and in other hematopoietic pathways. Previous studies of this protein were performed using Jurkat-derived human leukemic T cell lines and SLP76-deficient mice. Our current study links this gene, for the first time, to a human immunodeficiency characterized by early-onset life-threatening infections, combined T and B cell immunodeficiency, severe neutrophil defects, and impaired platelet aggregation. Hereby, we characterized aspects of the patient's immune phenotype, modeled them with an SLP76-deficient Jurkat-derived T cell line, and rescued some consequences using ectopic expression of wild-type SLP76. Understanding human diseases due to SLP76 deficiency is helpful in explaining the mixed T cell and neutrophil defects, providing a guide for exploring human SLP76 biology.

Project description:Null mutations in genes involved in V(D)J recombination cause a block in B- and T-cell development, clinically presenting as severe combined immunodeficiency (SCID). Hypomorphic mutations in the non-homologous end-joining gene DCLRE1C (encoding ARTEMIS) have been described to cause atypical SCID, Omenn syndrome, Hyper IgM syndrome and inflammatory bowel disease-all with severely impaired T-cell immunity. By whole-exome sequencing, we investigated the molecular defect in a consanguineous family with three children clinically diagnosed with antibody deficiency. We identified perfectly segregating homozygous variants in DCLRE1C in three index patients with recurrent respiratory tract infections, very low B-cell numbers and serum IgA levels. In patients, decreased colony survival after irradiation, impaired proliferative response and reduced counts of naïve T cells were observed in addition to a restricted T-cell receptor repertoire, increased palindromic nucleotides in the complementarity determining regions 3 and long stretches of microhomology at switch junctions. Defective V(D)J recombination was complemented by wild-type ARTEMIS protein in vitro. Subsequently, homozygous or compound heterozygous DCLRE1C mutations were identified in nine patients from the same geographic region. We demonstrate that DCLRE1C mutations can cause a phenotype presenting as only antibody deficiency. This novel association broadens the clinical spectrum associated with ARTEMIS mutations. Clinicians should consider the possibility that an immunodeficiency with a clinically mild initial presentation could be a combined immunodeficiency, so as to provide appropriate care for affected patients.

Project description:This study reports two unrelated patients with a combined immunodeficiency. Whole-exome sequencing of both patients, their healthy parents and siblings identified a single de novo missense variant in ITPR3 (NM_002224.3:c.7570C>T, p.Arg2524Cys) in both index cases. While the mRNA level in patients remained the same as in healthy siblings and controls, the level of protein expression was diminished. It was also shown that the ITPR3 heterozygous p.Arg2524Cys mutation impairs calcium flux function in dermal fibroblast of one patient and in a knock-in Jurkat T cell line. Two additional patients with related phenotypes and the same mutation were further identified and described in the study. The present dataset corresponds to the RNAseq performed on PBMC of patient 2 of the study and healthy controls.
