Cellular and molecular mechanisms breaking immune tolerance in inborn errors of immunity

open access: yes, 2021
In addition to susceptibility to infections, conventional primary immunodeficiency disorders (PIDs) and inborn errors of immunity (IEI) can cause immune dysregulation, manifesting as lymphoproliferative and/or autoimmune disease.

Mutations in SRD5B1 (AKR1D1), the gene encoding Delta(4)-3-oxosteroid 5 beta-reductase, in hepatitis and liver failure in infancy [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
Background: A substantial group of patients with cholestatic liver disease in infancy excrete, as the major urinary bile acids, the glycine and taurine conjugates of 7alpha-hydroxy-3-oxo-4-cholenoic acid and 7alpha, 12alpha-dihydroxy-3- oxo-4-cholenoic ...

Practical recommendations for the transition to adulthood for the adolescent with a genetic diagnosis. Special emphasis on inborn errors of metabolism

open access: yesTranslational Science of Rare Diseases, 2019
Taken as a group, genetic disorders affect a significant proportion of the population. Historically thought of as pediatric disorders, inborn errors of metabolism (IEM) are becoming increasingly relevant to the adult clinical provider; given the ...

Personalized hematopoietic stem cell transplantation for inborn errors of immunity

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2023
Patients with inborn errors of immunity (IEI) have been transplanted for more than 50 years. Many long-term survivors have ongoing medical issues showing the need for further improvements in how hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) is performed

Targeted NGS Yields Plentiful Ultra-Rare Variants in Inborn Errors of Immunity Patients

open access: yes, 2021
Inborn errors of immunity (IEI) include a large group of inherited diseases sharing either poor, dysregulated, or absent and/or acquired function in one or more components of the immune system. Next-generation sequencing (NGS) has driven a rapid increase

The human genetic determinism of life-threatening infectious diseases: genetic heterogeneity and physiological homogeneity?

open access: yesHuman Genetics, 2020
Multicellular eukaryotes emerged late in evolution from an ocean of viruses, bacteria, archaea, and unicellular eukaryotes. These macroorganisms are exposed to and infected by a tremendous diversity of microorganisms. Those that are large enough can even

α-mannosidosis diagnosis in Brazilian patients with MPS-like symptoms

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.

Gene- and Disease-Based Expansion of the Knowledge on Inborn Errors of Immunity

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2019
The recent report of the International Union of Immunological Societies (IUIS) has provided the categorized list of 354 inborn errors of immunity. We performed a systematic analysis of genes and diseases from the IUIS report with the use of the OMIM ...
