Chronic Granulomatous Disease With Inflammatory Bowel Disease: Clinical Presentation, Treatment, and Outcomes From the USIDNET Registry. THE JOURNAL OF ALLERGY AND CLINICAL IMMUNOLOGY. IN PRACTICE 2022; 10:1325-1333.e5. [PMID: 35033700 PMCID: PMC9086117 DOI: 10.1016/j.jaip.2021.12.035] [Citation(s) in RCA: 8] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/13/2021] [Revised: 12/13/2021] [Accepted: 12/19/2021] [Indexed: 10/19/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Chronic granulomatous disease (CGD) is an inborn error of immunity caused by defects in the phagocytic nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate oxidase complex, leading to increased susceptibility to infection and inflammatory autoimmune diseases. Up to 50% of patients have gastrointestinal (GI) involvement and meet diagnostic criteria for inflammatory bowel disease (CGD-IBD). OBJECTIVE We analyzed patients with CGD from the US Immunodeficiency Network (USIDNET) registry to determine whether IBD changes the presentation, treatment, and outcomes of patients with CGD. METHODS A retrospective evaluation of CGD cases from the USIDNET registry was completed. CGD-IBD was defined as the presence of any major physician-reported inflammatory, noninfectious GI disease manifestation. Demographic information, conditions, infections, antimicrobial therapies, immunomodulator use, and hematopoietic stem cell transplantation data were analyzed. RESULTS Of 194 patients with a diagnosis of CGD, 96 met criteria for IBD and 98 were categorized in the non-IBD group. Patients with CGD-IBD had an increased rate of infection compared with the non-IBD group (0.66 vs 0.36 infections/patient/year). Enteric organism infections were more common in patients with IBD. Immunomodulators were used at a significantly higher percentage in patients with IBD compared with patients without IBD (80% vs 56%, P < .001). Of the entire CGD cohort, 17 patients died (8.8%), with no significant difference between patients with IBD and patients without IBD (P = 1.00). CONCLUSION Infectious events, enteric organism infections, and use of immunomodulatory drugs were higher in patients with IBD than patients without IBD; however, mortality was not increased. Patients with CGD and concurrent IBD are at increased risk for disease complications, supporting the importance of early recognition, diagnosis, and treatment.

Integrative Analysis of the Inflammatory Bowel Disease Serum Metabolome Improves Our Understanding of Genetic Etiology and Points to Novel Putative Therapeutic Targets. Gastroenterology 2022; 162:828-843.e11.

Abstract
BACKGROUND & AIMS Polygenic and environmental factors are underlying causes of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). We hypothesized that integration of the genetic loci controlling a metabolite's abundance, with known IBD genetic susceptibility loci, may help resolve metabolic drivers of IBD. METHODS We measured the levels of 1300 metabolites in the serum of 484 patients with ulcerative colitis (UC) and 464 patients with Crohn's disease (CD) and 365 controls. Differential metabolite abundance was determined for disease status, subtype, clinical and endoscopic disease activity, as well as IBD phenotype including disease behavior, location, and extent. To inform on the genetic basis underlying metabolic diversity, we integrated metabolite and genomic data. Genetic colocalization and Mendelian randomization analyses were performed using known IBD risk loci to explore whether any metabolite was causally associated with IBD. RESULTS We found 173 genetically controlled metabolites (metabolite quantitative trait loci, 9 novel) within 63 non-overlapping loci (7 novel). Furthermore, several metabolites significantly associated with IBD disease status and activity as defined using clinical and endoscopic indexes. This constitutes a resource for biomarker discovery and IBD biology insights. Using this resource, we show that a novel metabolite quantitative trait locus for serum butyrate levels containing ACADS was not supported as causal for IBD; replicate the association of serum omega-6 containing lipids with the fatty acid desaturase 1/2 locus and identify these metabolites as causal for CD through Mendelian randomization; and validate a novel association of serum plasmalogen and TMEM229B, which was predicted as causal for CD. CONCLUSIONS An exploratory analysis combining genetics and unbiased serum metabolome surveys can reveal novel biomarkers of disease activity and potential mediators of pathology in IBD.

Abstract
Background Causes of early-onset inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) vary, and primary immunodeficiency diseases (PIDs) are associated with early-onset IBD as monogenic disorders. Aim This review investigates the prevalence, clinical manifestation, genetic profile, and treatment of patients with early-onset IBD in Southeast and East Asia. Methods A systemic review of articles reporting PID patients associated with early-onset IBD in Southeast and East Asia was conducted. Results The prevalence of PID associated with IBD was higher than that reported in western nations, and the frequency of patients with bloody stools as an early symptom was relatively higher in monogenic diseases. A total 13 (12.0%) of 108 patients with early-onset IBD were diagnosed as PID by exome sequencing and targeted gene panel analysis in Japan, including four patients with XIAP, three with IL10RA, and two or one patient with other gene mutations. In addition, ten patients were reported as having IL-10 receptor alpha (IL-10RA) deficiency in China and Hong Kong. Allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation was performed in patients with X-linked inhibitor of apoptosis deficiency, IL-10RA deficiency, or other PID as a curative treatment, and the preferable outcome of reduced-intensity conditioning and complete resolution of IBD symptoms and dysbiosis were achieved. Conclusion Comprehensive molecular diagnosis has been widely applied to screen for patients with PID-associated IBD in Southeast and East Asia. These results contributed to the awareness of monogenic PID in early-onset IBD patients and their differences in clinical manifestations and genetic profiles compared to the patients in western counties.

Abstract
The gastrointestinal (GI) tract is frequently affected by inborn errors of immunity (IEI), and GI manifestations can be present in IEI patients before a diagnosis is confirmed. We aimed to investigate clinical features, endoscopic and histopathologic findings in IEI patients. This was a retrospective cohort study conducted from 1995 to 2020. Eligible patients were diagnosed with IEI and had GI manifestations that were enough to require endoscopies. IEI was classified according to the International Union of Immunological Societies classification. Of 165 patients with IEI, 55 (33.3%) had GI manifestations, and 19 (11.5%) underwent endoscopy. Among those 19 patients, nine (47.4%) initially presented with GI manifestations. Thirteen patients (68.4%) were male, and the mean age of patients 11.5 ± 7.9 years (range, 0.6 – 26.6) when they were consulted and evaluated with endoscopy. The most common type of IEI with severe GI symptoms was “Disease of immune dysregulation” (31.6%) followed by “Phagocyte defects” (26.3%), according to the International Union of Immunological Societies classification criteria. Patients had variable GI symptoms such as chronic diarrhea (68.4%), hematochezia (36.8%), abdominal pain (31.6%), perianal disease (10.5%), and recurrent oral ulcers (10.5%). During the follow-up period, three patients developed GI tract neoplasms (early gastric carcinoma, mucosa associated lymphoid tissue lymphoma of colon, and colonic tubular adenoma, 15.8%), and 12 patients (63.2%) were diagnosed with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD)-like colitis. Investigating immunodeficiency in patients with atypical GI symptoms can provide an opportunity for correct diagnosis and appropriate disease-specific therapy. Gastroenterologists and immunologists should consider endoscopy when atypical GI manifestations appear in IEI patients to determine if IBD-like colitis or neoplasms including premalignant and malignant lesions have developed. Also, if physicians in various fields are better educated about IEI-specific complications, early diagnosis and disease-specific treatment for IEI will be made possible.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To determine the frequency with which inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is diagnosed in persons with Hirschsprung disease in population-based datasets from 3 Canadian provinces. STUDY DESIGN In study I, Ontario data were used to assess the incidence of IBD in a birth cohort of children with Hirschsprung disease relative to children without Hirschsprung disease. In study II, a case-control design was used in Alberta and Manitoba to determine the frequency of previously diagnosed Hirschsprung disease in persons with IBD, compared with the frequency of Hirschsprung disease in matched controls. Validated algorithms for Hirschsprung disease and IBD were applied to each provincial health registry. RESULTS In study I, of the 716 children diagnosed with Hirschsprung disease in Ontario since 1991, 18 (2.5%) ultimately developed IBD (168.8 per 100 000 person-years), compared with 7109 of 3 377 394 children without Hirschsprung disease (0.2%, 14.2 per 100 000 person-years). The percentage of males with post-Hirschsprung disease IBD was 77.8%. The incidence rate ratio was 11.9 (95% CI, 7.5-18.8). In study II, the OR of having had Hirschsprung disease before a diagnosis of IBD compared with controls was 74.9 (95% CI, 17.1-328.7) in Alberta and 23.8 (95% CI, 4.6-123) in Manitoba. Crohn's disease was more common after Hirschsprung disease than ulcerative colitis. CONCLUSIONS IBD can emerge in more than 2% of patients with Hirschsprung disease and, like Hirschsprung disease itself, is more common in males. IBD is much more common after a diagnosis of Hirschsprung disease than in the general population.

Abstract
Common variable immunodeficiency (CVID) is a primary immunodeficiency disease with a heterogeneous genetic background. Lipopolysaccharide-responsive beige-like anchor (LRBA), as well as cytotoxic T-lymphocyte-associated protein 4 (CTLA-4), have important regulatory roles in the immune responses. Here, we have investigated the expression of LRBA and CTLA-4 proteins in CVID patients with at least one presentation of early-onset occurrence, autoimmunity, or enteropathy. In this study, 20 newly diagnosed CVID patients without infection only phenotype, and ten healthy individuals were enrolled. The expressions of LRBA and CTLA-4 proteins were assessed by western blotting and flow cytometry, respectively. The patients were divided into two groups of autoimmunity-positive (11 cases) and autoimmunity-negative (9 patients). LRBA and CTLA-4 expressions were significantly lower in autoimmune-positive patients than in healthy individuals (P = .03 and P = .03, respectively). Autoimmune-negative patients had lower expression of LRBA and CTLA-4 than the control group, although it was not significant. There was a positive correlation between the expressions of LRBA and CTLA-4 in both groups of patients (P < .05). Furthermore, the highest frequency of LRBA (85.7%) and CTLA-4 (71.4%) defects was detected in those with concomitant presence of autoimmunity, enteropathy, and early-onset occurrence. Concurrent presence of autoimmunity, enteropathy, and early-onset occurrence in CVID patients could be indicative of a lack of expression in LRBA and CTLA-4 proteins. This could be helpful in early diagnosis and initiation of appropriate treatment in these patients prior to genetic confirmation.

Abstract
LPS-responsive beige-like anchor protein (LRBA) deficiency is a monogenic primary immunodeficiency characterized by a heterogeneous spectrum of clinical manifestations associated with immune dysregulation. In this study, we reported clinical, immunologic, and genetic evaluation of two Iranian patients from unrelated families, both suffering from recurrent respiratory tract infections, failure to thrive, interstitial lung disease, autoimmune cytopenia, and hypogammaglobulinemia. Pulmonary abscess in one patient and persistent enteropathy in another were also observed. Further investigations revealed causative mutations in the exon (c.2166_2766del) and intron (c.4730-3 T > G) of the LRBA gene. These results may provide further elucidation of the clinical phenotypes and responsible genetic factors of LRBA deficiency.
