VEXAS (vacuoles, E1 enzyme, X-linked, autoinflammatory, somatic) syndrome is a recently described, late-onset, acquired autoinflammatory disorder caused by mutations in the UBA1 gene. The various clinical manifestations of VEXAS broadly divided into inflammatory or haematological.

Hypomethylating agents in vacuoles, E1 enzyme, X-linked, autoinflammatory, somatic syndrome (VEXAS): A systematic review. [PDF]
Summary VEXAS syndrome (vacuoles, E1 enzyme, X‐linked, autoinflammatory, somatic) is an X‐linked, systemic, haemato‐inflammatory syndrome caused by somatic mutations in the UBA1 gene. No standardized treatment guidelines exist, but evidence is emerging that treatment with hypomethylating agents (HMAs) can induce improvement of the inflammatory symptoms,
