Activated phosphoinositide 3-dinase delta syndrome (APDS): An update.

ABSTRACT: Activated phosphoinositide 3-kinase delta syndrome (APDS) is a recently described form of inborn error of immunity (IEI) caused by heterozygous mutations in PIK3CD or PIK3R1 genes, respectively, encoding leukocyte-restricted catalytic p110δ subunit and the ubiquitously expressed regulatory p85 α subunit of the phosphoinositide 3-kinase δ (PI3Kδ). The first described patients with respiratory infections, hypogammaglobulinemia with normal to elevated IgM serum levels, lymphopenia, and lymphoproliferation.
