Pathogenesis of Autoimmune Cytopenias in Inborn Errors of Immunity Revealing Novel Therapeutic Targets [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2022
Autoimmune diseases are usually associated with environmental triggers and genetic predisposition. However, a few number of autoimmune diseases has a monogenic cause, mostly in children.

Lethal Infectious Diseases as Inborn Errors of Immunity: Toward a Synthesis of the Germ and Genetic Theories [PDF]

open access: yesAnnual Review of Pathology: Mechanisms of Disease, 2021
It was first demonstrated in the late nineteenth century that human deaths from fever were typically due to infections. As the germ theory gained ground, it replaced the old, unproven theory that deaths from fever reflected a weak personal or even familial constitution.

Metabolism as a complex genetic trait, a systems biology approach: Implications for inborn errors of metabolism and clinical diseases [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Inherited Metabolic Disease, 2008
SummaryMultifactorial and polygenic inheritance is commonly recognized for many genetic conditions including physical anomalies, complex congenital malformation syndromes, and even common disorders such as adult‐onset diabetes mellitus. It has only recently been suggested as a mechanism for inheritance in inborn errors of metabolism.

Natural variation in a glucuronosyltransferase modulates propionate sensitivity in a C. elegans propionic acidemia model. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS Genetics, 2020
Mutations in human metabolic genes can lead to rare diseases known as inborn errors of human metabolism. For instance, patients with loss-of-function mutations in either subunit of propionyl-CoA carboxylase suffer from propionic acidemia because they ...

α-mannosidosis diagnosis in Brazilian patients with MPS-like symptoms [PDF]

open access: yesOrphanet Journal of Rare Diseases
Background α-mannosidosis is an inborn error of metabolism caused by the deficiency of the lysosomal enzyme α-mannosidase, which is encoded by the MAN2B1 gene and inherited in an autosomal recessive manner.

Unlocking life-threatening COVID-19 through two types of inborn errors of type I IFNs

open access: yesThe Journal of Clinical Investigation, 2023
Since 2003, rare inborn errors of human type I IFN immunity have been discovered, each underlying a few severe viral illnesses. Autoantibodies neutralizing type I IFNs due to rare inborn errors of autoimmune regulator (AIRE)–driven T cell tolerance were ...

Risk factors and birth prevalence of birth defects and inborn errors of metabolism in Al Ahsa, Saudi Arabia [PDF]

open access: yesThe Pan African Medical Journal, 2011
BACKGROUND: Birth defects and inborn errors of metabolism are related to variable poor perinatal and neonatal outcomes. Our aim was to explore the pattern and prevalence of birth defects and metabolic birth errors in Al-Ahsa Governorate in the Eastern ...
