Long‐term clinical trajectory of microvillus inclusion disease associated with STXBP2‐related familial hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis type 5: A case report

Journal of Parenteral and Enteral Nutrition, EarlyView.
Abstract Familial hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis type 5 is caused by biallelic pathogenic variants in STXBP2, which encodes syntaxin‐binding protein, a key regulator of vesicle trafficking. In addition to immune dysregulation, patients with familial hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis type 5 may present with severe, persistent diarrhea associated ...

The genetic landscape of congenital diarrheas and very early onset inflammatory bowel disease in the Middle East

JPGN Reports, EarlyView.
Abstract Objectives Monogenic causes of congenital diarrheas and enteropathies (CoDE) and very early onset inflammatory bowel disease (VEOIBD) are mostly recessive and therefore more prevalent in populations with increased consanguinity rates. To assess the genetic basis of these disorders in a likely high‐prevalence population, we established a multi ...
