Exploring Monogenic, Polygenic, and Epigenetic Models of Common Variable Immunodeficiency

open access: yesHuman Mutation, Volume 2025, Issue 1, 2025.
Common variable immunodeficiency (CVID) is the most frequent symptomatic inborn error of immunity (IEI). CVID is genetically heterogeneous and occurs in sporadic or familial forms with different inheritance patterns. Monogenic mutations have been found in a low percentage of patients, and multifactorial or polygenic inheritance may be involved in ...

A single center experience on PI3K/AKT/MTOR signaling defects: Towards pathogenicity assessment for four novel defects

open access: yesPediatric Allergy and Immunology, Volume 35, Issue 9, September 2024.
Abstract Background Phosphoinositide 3 kinases (PI3K) are lipid kinases expressed in lymphocytes/myeloid cells. PI3K/AKT/mTOR signaling defects present with recurrent infections, autoimmunity, lymphoproliferation, and agammaglobulinemia. Objective To characterize the PI3K/AKT/mTOR pathway defects and perform pathway analyses to assess novel variant ...

Cracking the type 1 diabetes code: Genes, microbes, immunity, and the early life environment

open access: yesImmunological Reviews, Volume 325, Issue 1, Page 23-45, August 2024.
Summary Type 1 diabetes (T1D) results from a complex interplay of genetic predisposition, immunological dysregulation, and environmental triggers, that culminate in the destruction of insulin‐secreting pancreatic β cells. This review provides a comprehensive examination of the multiple factors underpinning T1D pathogenesis, to elucidate key mechanisms ...
