Abstract
PURPOSE Inborn errors of IFN-γ immunity underlie Mendelian susceptibility to mycobacterial disease (MSMD). Twenty-two genes with products involved in the production of, or response to, IFN-γ and variants of which underlie MSMD have been identified. However, pathogenic variants of IFNG encoding a defective IFN-γ have been described in only two siblings, who both underwent hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HCST). METHODS We characterized a new patient with MSMD by genetic, immunological, and clinical means. Therapeutic decisions were taken on the basis of these findings. RESULTS The patient was born to consanguineous Turkish parents and developed bacillus Calmette-Guérin (BCG) disease following vaccination at birth. Whole-exome sequencing revealed a homozygous private IFNG variant (c.224 T > C, p.F75S). Upon overexpression in recipient cells or constitutive expression in the patient's cells, the mutant IFN-γ was produced within the cells but was not correctly folded or secreted. The patient was treated for 6 months with two or three antimycobacterial drugs only and then for 30 months with subcutaneous recombinant IFN-γ1b plus two antimycobacterial drugs. Treatment with IFN-γ1b finally normalized all biological parameters. The patient presented no recurrence of mycobacterial disease or other related infectious diseases. The treatment was well tolerated, without the production of detectable autoantibodies against IFN-γ. CONCLUSION We describe a patient with a new form of autosomal recessive IFN-γ deficiency, with intracellular, but not extracellular IFN-γ. IFN-γ1b treatment appears to have been beneficial in this patient, with no recurrence of mycobacterial infection over a period of more than 30 months. This targeted treatment provides an alternative to HCST in patients with complete IFN-γ deficiency or at least an option to better control mycobacterial infection prior to HCST.

Abstract
Inborn errors of immunity (IEI) are genetic disorders with extensive clinical presentations. They can range from increased susceptibility to infections to significant immune dysregulation that results in immune impairment. While IEI cases are individually rare, they collectively represent a significant burden of disease, especially in developing countries such as South Africa, where infectious diseases like tuberculosis (TB) are endemic. This is particularly alarming considering that certain high penetrance mutations that cause IEI, such as Mendelian Susceptibility to Mycobacterial Disease (MSMD), put individuals at higher risk for developing TB and other mycobacterial diseases. MSMD patients in South Africa often present with different clinical phenotypes than those from the developed world, therefore complicating the identification of disease-associated variants in this setting with a high burden of infectious diseases. The lack of available data, limited resources, as well as variability in clinical phenotype are the reasons many MSMD cases remain undetected or misdiagnosed. This article highlights the challenges in diagnosing MSMD in South Africa and proposes the use of transcriptomic analysis as a means of potentially identifying dysregulated pathways in affected African populations.

Abstract
IntroductionMendelian susceptibility to mycobacterial disease (MSMD) is a rare inherited condition characterized by selective susceptibility to weakly virulent mycobacteria, such as substrains of the bacille Calmette–Guérin (BCG) vaccine and different environmental mycobacteria.Case presentationA 7-year-old Sudanese boy was referred to the immunology clinic with a suspected diagnosis of MSMD. This followed multiple presentations with disseminated tuberculosis and typhoid fever. Genetic testing surprisingly revealed pathogenic homozygous variants in IL12RB1 Exon 9, c.913A>T (p. Lys305*) in both the patient and his father, with a completely healthy asymptomatic carrier mother who is not blood related to the patient’s father.ConclusionIt is challenging to diagnose MSMD, especially in developing countries where health systems are poor and have limited resources. Family history and genetic tests may help in early MSMD treatment and avoiding disease complications.

Abstract
Inborn errors of human IFN-γ-dependent macrophagic immunity underlie mycobacterial diseases, whereas inborn errors of IFN-α/β-dependent intrinsic immunity underlie viral diseases. Both types of IFNs induce the transcription factor IRF1. We describe unrelated children with inherited complete IRF1 deficiency and early-onset, multiple, life-threatening diseases caused by weakly virulent mycobacteria and related intramacrophagic pathogens. These children have no history of severe viral disease, despite exposure to many viruses, including SARS-CoV-2, which is life-threatening in individuals with impaired IFN-α/β immunity. In leukocytes or fibroblasts stimulated in vitro, IRF1-dependent responses to IFN-γ are, both quantitatively and qualitatively, much stronger than those to IFN-α/β. Moreover, IRF1-deficient mononuclear phagocytes do not control mycobacteria and related pathogens normally when stimulated with IFN-γ. By contrast, IFN-α/β-dependent intrinsic immunity to nine viruses, including SARS-CoV-2, is almost normal in IRF1-deficient fibroblasts. Human IRF1 is essential for IFN-γ-dependent macrophagic immunity to mycobacteria, but largely redundant for IFN-α/β-dependent antiviral immunity.

Novel STAT1 Variants in Japanese Patients with Isolated Mendelian Susceptibility to Mycobacterial Diseases. J Clin Immunol 2023; 43:466-478.

Abstract
PURPOSE Heterozygous dominant-negative (DN) STAT1 variants are responsible for autosomal dominant (AD) Mendelian susceptibility to mycobacterial disease (MSMD). In this paper, we describe eight MSMD cases from four kindreds in Japan. METHODS An inborn error of immunity-related gene panel sequencing was performed using genomic DNA extracted from whole blood samples. The identified variants were validated using Sanger sequencing. Functional analysis was evaluated with a luciferase reporter assay and co-transfection assay in STAT1-deficient cells. RESULTS Patient 1.1 was a 20-month-old boy with multifocal osteomyelitis and paravertebral abscesses caused by Mycobacterium bovis bacillus Calmette-Guérin (BCG). Although the paravertebral abscess was refractory to antimycobacterial drugs, the addition of IFN-γ and drainage of the abscess were effective. Intriguingly, his mother (patient 1.2) showed an uneventful clinical course except for treatment-responsive tuberculous spondylitis during adulthood. Patient 2.1 was an 8-month-old boy with lymphadenopathy and lung nodules caused by BCG. He responded well to antimycobacterial drugs. His mother (patient 2.2) was healthy. Patient 3.1 was a 11-year-old girl with suspected skin tuberculosis. Her brother (patient 3.2) had BCG-osis, but their mother (patient 3.3) was healthy. Patient 4 was an 8-month-old girl with left axillary and supraclavicular lymphadenopathy associated with BCG vaccination. Kindreds 1, 2, and 3 were shown to have novel heterozygous variants (V642F, R588C, and R649G) in STAT1, respectively. Kindred 4 had previously reported heterozygous variants (Q463H). A luciferase reporter assay in STAT1-deficient cells followed by IFN-γ stimulation confirmed that these variants are loss-of-function. In addition, with co-transfection assay, we confirmed all of these variants had DN effect on WT STAT1. CONCLUSION Four kindred MSMD subjects with 3 novel variants and 1 known variant in STAT1 were identified in this study. AD STAT1 deficiency might be prevalent in Japanese patients with BCG-associated MSMD.

Abstract
The neonatal immune ontogeny begins during pregnancy to ensure that the neonate is well-suited for perinatal life. It prioritizes Th2/M2 and regulatory responses over Th/M1 activity to avoid excessive inflammatory responses and to ensure immune tolerance and homeostasis. Newborns also present increased Th17/Th22 responses providing effective anti-fungal immunity and mucosal protection. Intrauterine exposure to immune modulatory drugs with the placental transfer may influence the natural course of the fetal immune development. The vertical transfer of both biological therapy and small molecules begins during the first trimester through neonatal Fc receptor or placental diffusion, respectively, reaching its maximum transfer potential during the third trimester of pregnancy. Most of the biological therapy have a prolonged half-life in newborn's blood, being detectable in infants up to 12 months after birth (usually 6-9 months). The use of immunomodulators during pregnancy is gaining global interest. Current evidence mainly reports birth-related outcomes without exhaustive analysis of the on-target side effect on the perinatal immune system ontogeny, the infection risk, or the immune dysregulation. The present review will focus on: (1) the main characteristics of the perinatal immune system to understand its specific features and vulnerabilities to immune modulation; (2) the mechanisms of placental transfer of immunomodulators; and (3) the immune changes reported to date in newborns exposed to immunomodulators with emphasis on the current concerns and gaps in knowledge.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW This review provides readers with examples of refractory infections due to inborn errors of immunity, highlighting how they may be successfully treated by deducing and targeting the underlying immunodeficiency. RECENT FINDINGS The use of host-directed immunotherapy to treat infectious disease in inborn errors of immunity is currently limited but growing. Different strategies include depleting the cellular reservoir for pathogens with restricted cell-tropism; augmenting the diminished effector response; and restoring molecular equipoise. The immunotherapies illustrated are existing drugs that have been re-purposed and rationally used, depending on the molecular or cellular impact of the mutation. As more biologic response modifiers and molecular targeted therapies are developed for other indications, they open the avenues for their use in inborn errors of immunity. Conversely, as more molecular pathways underlying defective immune responses and refractory infections are elucidated, they lend themselves to tractability with these emerging therapies. SUMMARY Infections that fail appropriate antimicrobial therapy are a harbinger of underlying inborn errors of immunity. Dissecting the mechanism by which the immune system fails provides opportunities to target the host response and make it succeed.

Sarcoid-like lesions obfuscating the diagnosis of disseminated Mycobacterium genavense infection in a patient with IL-12Rβ1-associated immunodeficiency. BMC Infect Dis 2022; 22:770. [PMID: 36192705 PMCID: PMC9531490 DOI: 10.1186/s12879-022-07644-4] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/27/2022] [Accepted: 07/24/2022] [Indexed: 11/24/2022] Open
Abstract
Background Sarcoidosis is a systemic inflammatory disease that is characterized by non-caseating epithelioid-cell granulomas upon histology. However, similar histological findings may also be seen with certain infections. Thus, differentiation from infection is pivotal to ensure appropriate treatment. Here, we present a case of a disseminated infection with Mycobacterium genavense owing to an interleukin 12 receptor subunit beta 1 (IL-12Rβ1) associated immunodeficiency in a previously healthy female who was initially misdiagnosed with sarcoidosis. M. genavense is a nontuberculous mycobacterium which can cause lymphadenopathy, gastrointestinal and bone marrow infiltration in immunocompromised patients. With this case report we aim to highlight that an infection with M. genavense on the ground of a genetic defect of mycobacterial immune control may represent a rare differential diagnosis of sarcoidosis. Case presentation A 31-year-old female was referred to our hospital with progressive lymphadenopathy, hepatosplenomegaly, pancytopenia and systemic inflammation. She had previously been evaluated for generalized lymphadenopathy in another hospital. At that time, lymph node biopsies had revealed sarcoid-like lesions and a systemic corticosteroid treatment was initiated based on a putative diagnosis of sarcoidosis. When her condition worsened, she was transferred to our university clinic, where the diagnosis of disseminated M. genavense infection owing to an inborn interferonopathy was made. Her family history revealed that her brother had also suffered from IL-12Rβ1 deficiency and had died from a systemic infection with M. genavense at the age of 21. The patient received antimycobacterial treatment combined with subcutaneous type I interferon, which eventually led to a gradual improvement over the next months. Conclusions Differentiating between sarcoidosis and sarcoid-like lesions secondary to infections may be challenging, especially when pathogens are difficult to detect or not expected in an apparently immunocompetent patient. Patients with IL-12Rβ1-associated immunodeficiency may be asymptomatic until adulthood, and disseminated M. genavense infection on the grounds of an IL-12Rβ1-associated immunodeficiency may represent a rare differential diagnosis of sarcoidosis.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The Bacille Calmette-Guérin (BCG) vaccine is routinely applied in Brazil. Adverse events (AE) may occur in patients with inborn or acquired immunodeficiencies, varying between local (BCGitis) or disseminated (BCGosis) reactions. We evaluated 53 individuals with local or disseminated adverse events to BCG vaccination to assess if they had inborn errors of immunity (IEI). METHODS Patients diagnosed with an adverse event following BCG vaccination between 2014 and 2017 were included in the study. We collected clinical data, immunophenotyped T and B lymphocytes, and natural killer cells (NK), assessed oxidative function of neutrophils through dihydrorhodamine (DHR) 123 testing, and genotyped 361 genes related to IEI through targeted (panel) sequencing. RESULTS The median age of the 53 individuals was four months (IQ 1.5-12), and 52.8% were male. Forty-eight (90.6%) individuals presented only locoregional AE and five (9.4%) presented both locoregional and disseminated AE. Nine (16.9%) patients were diagnosed with an IEI. Four of them presented BCGitis and five presented BCGosis after BCG vaccination. Clinically, four presented chronic granulomatous disease (CGD), three Mendelian susceptibility to mycobacterial disease (MSMD), and two severe combined immunodeficiency (SCID). Patients with IEI had a higher frequency of systemic symptomatology (p = 0.002), history of other infections (p < 0.001), parental consanguinity (p = 0.01), familial history of sick siblings (p < 0.001), or early deaths in the family (p < 0.01). CONCLUSION There is a high frequency of IEI in patients with locoregional and disseminated adverse events to BCG vaccination, revealing the need for the investigation of IEI accompanied by clinical and familial inquiry.

Abstract
Mendelian susceptibility to mycobacterial disease (MSMD) arises from a group of rare inherited errors of immunity that result in selective susceptibility of otherwise healthy people to clinical disease caused by low virulence strains of mycobacteria, such as Mycobacterium bovis Bacille Calmette-Guérin (BCG) and environmental mycobacteria. Patients have normal resistance to other pathogens and no overt abnormalities in routine immunological and hematological evaluations for primary immunodeficiencies. At least 19 genes and 34 clinical phenotypes have been identified in MSMD. However, there have been no systematic reports on the clinical characteristics and genetic backgrounds of MSMD in China. In this review, on the one hand, we summarize an update findings on molecular defects and immunological mechanisms in the field of MSMD research globally. On the other hand, we undertook a systematic review of PubMed (MEDLINE), the Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials (CENTRAL), Web of Science, EMBASE, CNKI, and Wanfang to identify articles published before Jan 23, 2022, to summarize the clinical characteristics, diagnosis, treatment, and prognosis of MSMD in China. All the English and Chinese publications were searched without any restriction on article types.

Abstract
Background Mendelian Susceptibility to Mycobacterial Disease (MSMD) is a primary immunodeficiency (PID) characterised by a predisposition to infection by weakly-pathogenic mycobacteria. In countries with a high prevalence of tuberculosis (TB), individuals with MSMD are also prone to infections by Mycobacterium tuberculosis. Several MSMD-associated genes have been described, all resulting in a disruption of IL-12 and IFN-γ cytokine axis, which is essential for control of mycobacterial infections. An accurate molecular diagnosis, confirmed by phenotypic and functional immune investigations, is essential to ensure that the patient receives optimal treatment and prophylaxis for infections. The aim of this study was to implement a set of functional assays to assess the integrity of the IL-12-IFN-γ cytokine pathways in patients presenting with severe, persistent, unusual and/or recurrent TB, mycobacterial infections or other clinical MSMD-defining infections such as Salmonella. Methods Blood was collected for subsequent PBMC isolation from 16 participants with MSMD-like clinical phenotypes. A set of flow cytometry (phenotype and signalling integrity) and ELISA-based (cytokine production) functional assays were implemented to assess the integrity of the IL-12-IFN-γ pathway. Results The combination of the three assays for the assessment of the integrity of the IL-12-IFN-γ pathway was successful in identifying immune deficits in the IL-12-IFN-γ pathway in all of the participants included in this study. Conclusions The data presented here emphasise the importance of investigating PID and TB susceptibility in TB endemic regions such as South Africa as MSMD and other previously described PIDs relating to TB susceptibility may present differently in such regions. It is therefore important to have access to in vitro functional investigations to better understand the immune function of these individuals. Although functional assays alone are unlikely to always provide a clear diagnosis, they do give an overview of the integrity of the IL-12-IFN-γ pathway. It would be beneficial to apply these assays routinely to patients with suspected PID relating to mycobacterial susceptibility. A molecular diagnosis with confirmed functional impairment paves the way for targeted treatment and improved disease management options for these patients.

Abstract
Autosomal recessive (AR) STAT1 deficiency is a severe inborn error of immunity disrupting cellular responses to type I, II, and III IFNs, and IL-27, and conferring a predisposition to both viral and mycobacterial infections. We report the genetic, immunological, and clinical features of an international cohort of 32 patients from 20 kindreds: 24 patients with complete deficiency, and 8 patients with partial deficiency. Twenty-four patients suffered from mycobacterial disease (bacillus Calmette-Guérin = 13, environmental mycobacteria = 10, or both in 1 patient). Fifty-four severe viral episodes occurred in sixteen patients, mainly caused by Herpesviridae viruses. Attenuated live measles, mumps, and rubella and/or varicella zoster virus vaccines triggered severe reactions in the five patients with complete deficiency who were vaccinated. Seven patients developed features of hemophagocytic syndrome. Twenty-one patients died, and death was almost twice as likely in patients with complete STAT1 deficiency than in those with partial STAT1 deficiency. All but one of the eight survivors with AR complete deficiency underwent hematopoietic stem cell transplantation. Overall survival after hematopoietic stem cell transplantation was 64%. A diagnosis of AR STAT1 deficiency should be considered in children with mycobacterial and/or viral infectious diseases. It is important to distinguish between complete and partial forms of AR STAT1 deficiency, as their clinical outcome and management differ significantly.

Abstract
Members of the Cryptococcus gattii species complex are notorious causes of cryptococcosis as they often cause severe, life-threatening infections. Here we describe a case of a severe disseminated C. deuterogattii infection in a previously healthy patient who was initially treated with amphotericin B, 5-fluorocytosine and fluconazole, which led to a good neurological response, but the infection in the lungs remained unaltered and was not completely resolved until switching the antifungal therapy to isavuconazole. The infection was likely acquired during a one-month stay at the Azores Islands, Portugal. Environmental sampling did not yield any cryptococcal isolate; therefore, the source of this apparent autochthonous case could not be determined. Molecular typing showed that the cultured C. deuterogattii isolates were closely related to the Vancouver Island outbreak-genotype.

Abstract
Knowledge related to the biology of inborn errors of immunity and associated laboratory testing methods continues to expand at a tremendous rate. Despite this, many patients with inborn errors of immunity suffer for prolonged periods of time before identification of their underlying condition, thereby delaying appropriate care. Understanding that test selection and optimal evaluation for patients with recurrent infections or unusual patterns of inflammation can be unclear, we present a document that distills relevant clinical features of immunologic disease due to inborn errors of immunity and related appropriate and available test options. This document is intended to serve the practicing clinical immunologist and, in turn, patients by describing best available test options for initial and expanded immunologic evaluations across the disease spectrum. Our goal is to demystify the process of evaluating patients with suspected immune dysfunction and to enable more rapid and accurate diagnosis of such individuals.

Abstract
Primary immunodeficiency disorders (PIDs) are inborn errors of immunity (IEI) that cause immune system impairment. To date, more than 400 single-gene IEI have been well defined. The advent of next generation sequencing (NGS) technologies has improved clinical diagnosis and allowed for discovery of novel genes and variants associated with IEI. Molecular diagnosis provides clear clinical benefits for patients by altering management, enabling access to certain treatments and facilitates genetic counselling. Here we report on an 8-year experience using two different NGS technologies, namely research-based WES and targeted gene panels, in patients with suspected IEI in the South African healthcare system. A total of 52 patients' had WES only, 26 had a targeted gene panel only, and 2 had both panel and WES. Overall, a molecular diagnosis was achieved in 30% (24/80) of patients. Clinical management was significantly altered in 67% of patients following molecular results. All 24 families with a molecular diagnosis received more accurate genetic counselling and family cascade testing. Results highlight the clinical value of expanded genetic testing in IEI and its relevance to understanding the genetic and clinical spectrum of the IEI-related disorders in Africa. Detection rates under 40% illustrate the complexity and heterogeneity of these disorders, especially in an African population, thus highlighting the need for expanded genomic testing and research to further elucidate this.

Abstract
Granulomatous inflammation of the lung can be a manifestation of different conditions and can be caused by endogenous inflammation or external triggers. A multitude of different genetic mutations can either predispose patients to infections with granuloma-forming pathogens or cause autoinflammatory disorders, both leading to the phenotype of pulmonary granulomatosis. Based on a detailed patient history, physical examination and a diagnostic approach including laboratory workup, pulmonary function tests (PFTs), computed tomography (CT) scans, bronchoscopy with bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL), lung biopsies and specialised microbiological and immunological diagnostics, a correct diagnosis of an underlying cause of pulmonary granulomatosis of genetic origin can be made and appropriate therapy can be initiated. Depending on the underlying disorder, treatment approaches can include antimicrobial therapy, immunosuppression and even haematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT). Patients with immunodeficiencies and autoinflammatory conditions are at the highest risk of developing pulmonary granulomatosis of genetic origin. Here we provide a review on these disorders and discuss pathogenesis, clinical presentation, diagnostic approach and treatment. Pulmonary granulomatosis of genetic origin mostly occurs in immunodeficiency disorders and autoinflammatory conditions. In addition to specific approaches in this regard, the diagnostic workup needs to cover environmental and occupational aspects.https://bit.ly/31SqdHW

Abstract
Human inborn errors of IFN-γ underlie mycobacterial disease, due to insufficient IFN-γ production by lymphoid cells, impaired myeloid cell responses to this cytokine, or both. We report four patients from two unrelated kindreds with intermittent monocytosis and mycobacterial disease, including bacillus Calmette-Guérin-osis and disseminated tuberculosis, and without any known inborn error of IFN-γ. The patients are homozygous for ZNFX1 variants (p.S959* and p.E1606Rfs*10) predicted to be loss of function (pLOF). There are no subjects homozygous for pLOF variants in public databases. ZNFX1 is a conserved and broadly expressed helicase, but its biology remains largely unknown. It is thought to act as a viral double-stranded RNA sensor in mice, but these patients do not suffer from severe viral illnesses. We analyze its subcellular localization upon overexpression in A549 and HeLa cell lines and upon stimulation of THP1 and fibroblastic cell lines. We find that this cytoplasmic protein can be recruited to or even induce stress granules. The endogenous ZNFX1 protein in cell lines of the patient homozygous for the p.E1606Rfs*10 variant is truncated, whereas ZNFX1 expression is abolished in cell lines from the patients with the p.S959* variant. Lymphocyte subsets are present at normal frequencies in these patients and produce IFN-γ normally. The hematopoietic and nonhematopoietic cells of the patients tested respond normally to IFN-γ. Our results indicate that human ZNFX1 is associated with stress granules and essential for both monocyte homeostasis and protective immunity to mycobacteria.

Abstract
Mendelian Susceptibility to Mycobacterial diseases (MSMD) are a group of innate immune defects with more than 17 genes and 32 clinical phenotypes identified. Defects in the IFN-γ mediated immunity lead to an increased susceptibility to intracellular pathogens like mycobacteria including attenuated Mycobacterium bovis-Bacillus Calmette-Guérin (BCG) vaccine strains and non-tuberculous environmental mycobacteria (NTM), Salmonella, fungi, parasites like Leishmania and some viruses, in otherwise healthy individuals. Mutations in the IL12RB1 gene are the commonest genetic defects identified. This retrospective study reports the clinical, immunological, and molecular characteristics of a cohort of 55 MSMD patients from 10 centers across India. Mycobacterial infection was confirmed by GeneXpert, Histopathology, and acid fast bacilli staining. Immunological workup included lymphocyte subset analysis, Nitro blue tetrazolium (NBT) test, immunoglobulin levels, and flow-cytometric evaluation of the IFN-γ mediated immunity. Genetic analysis was done by next generation sequencing (NGS). Disseminated BCG-osis was the commonest presenting manifestation (82%) with a median age of presentation of 6 months due to the practice of BCG vaccination at birth. This was followed by infection with Salmonella and non-typhi Salmonella (13%), Cytomegalovirus (CMV) (11%), Candida (7%), NTM (4%), and Histoplasma (2%). Thirty-six percent of patients in cohort were infected by more than one organism. This study is the largest cohort of MSMD patients reported from India to the best of our knowledge and we highlight the importance of work up for IL-12/IL-23/ISG15/IFN-γ circuit in all patients with BCG-osis and suspected MSMD irrespective of age.

Abstract
We present a case of a 42-year-old woman with Mendelian susceptibility to mycobacterial disease. The disease was diagnosed at an adult age with relatively typical clinical manifestations; the skeleton, joints, and soft tissues were affected by nontuberculous mycobacteria: Mycobacterium lentiflavum, M. kansasii, and M. avium. A previously published loss-of-function and functionally validated variant NM_000416.2:c.819_822delTAAT in IFNGR1 in a heterozygous state was detected using whole-exome sequencing. After interferon-γ therapy was started at a dose of 200 µg/m2 three times a week, there was significant clinical improvement, with the need to continue the macrolide-based combination regimen. In the last 4 months, she has been in this therapy without the need for antibiotic treatment.

Abstract
Mendelian susceptibility to mycobacterial disease (MSMD) is characterized by a selective predisposition to clinical disease caused by the Bacille Calmette-Guérin (BCG) vaccine and environmental mycobacteria. The known genetic etiologies of MSMD are inborn errors of IFN-γ immunity due to mutations of 15 genes controlling the production of or response to IFN-γ. Since the first MSMD-causing mutations were reported in 1996, biallelic mutations in the genes encoding IFN-γ receptor 1 (IFN-γR1) and IFN-γR2 have been reported in many patients of diverse ancestries. Surprisingly, mutations of the gene encoding the IFN-γ cytokine itself have not been reported, raising the remote possibility that there might be other agonists of the IFN-γ receptor. We describe 2 Lebanese cousins with MSMD, living in Kuwait, who are both homozygous for a small deletion within the IFNG gene (c.354_357del), causing a frameshift that generates a premature stop codon (p.T119Ifs4*). The mutant allele is loss of expression and loss of function. We also show that the patients' herpesvirus Saimiri-immortalized T lymphocytes did not produce IFN-γ, a phenotype that can be rescued by retrotransduction with WT IFNG cDNA. The blood T and NK lymphocytes from these patients also failed to produce and secrete detectable amounts of IFN-γ. Finally, we show that human IFNG has evolved under stronger negative selection than IFNGR1 or IFNGR2, suggesting that it is less tolerant to heterozygous deleterious mutations than IFNGR1 or IFNGR2. This may account for the rarity of patients with autosomal-recessive, complete IFN-γ deficiency relative to patients with complete IFN-γR1 and IFN-γR2 deficiencies.

Abstract
Mendelian susceptibility to mycobacterial disease (MSMD) is characterized by clinical disease caused by weakly virulent mycobacteria, such as environmental mycobacteria and Bacillus Calmette-Guérin vaccines, in otherwise healthy individuals. All known genetic etiologies disrupt interferon (IFN)-γ immunity. Germline bi-allelic mutations of IFNGR2 can underlie partial or complete forms of IFN-γ receptor 2 (IFN-γR2) deficiency. Patients with partial IFN-γR2 deficiency express a dysfunctional molecule on the cell surface. We studied three patients with MSMD from two unrelated kindreds from Turkey (P1, P2) and India (P3), by whole-exome sequencing. P1 and P2 are homozygous for a mutation of the initiation codon(c.1A>G) of IFNGR2, whereas P3 is homozygous for a mutation of the second codon (c.4delC). Overexpressed mutant alleles produce small amounts of full-length IFN-γR2 resulting in an impaired, but not abolished, response to IFN-γ. Moreover, SV40-fibroblasts of P1 and P2 responded weakly to IFN-γ, and Epstein Barr virus-transformed B cells had a barely detectable response to IFN-γ. Studies in patients' primary T cells and monocyte-derived macrophages yielded similar results. The residual expression of IFN-γR2 protein of normal molecular weight and function is due to the initiation of translation between the second and ninth non-AUG codons. We thus describe mutations of the first and second codons of IFNGR2, which define a new form of partial recessive IFN-γR2 deficiency. Residual levels of IFN-γ signaling were very low, accounting for the more severe clinical phenotype of these patients with residual expression levels of normally functional surface receptors than of patients with partial recessive IFN-γR2 deficiency due to surface-expressed dysfunctional receptors, whose residual levels of IFN-γ signaling were higher.

Abstract
Extracellular vesicles are membrane-bound structures released by living cells and present in body fluids. Their composition includes proteins, lipids, carbohydrates, and nucleic acids and are involved in transfers between cells. Extracellular vesicles can deliver molecules to cells and tissues even if distant. As a consequence, they have a role in information transmission and in the modulation of the biological function of recipient cells. Among other things, they are involved in antigen presentation and the induction of secretion events by immune cells. Thus, extracellular vesicles participate in the regulation of immune responses during infections. We will discuss their potential as effectors and disease biomarkers concerning only mycobacterial infections.

Abstract
Mendelian susceptibility to mycobacterial disease (MSMD) is caused by inborn errors of IFN-γ immunity. Since 1996, disease-causing mutations have been found in 11 genes, which, through allelic heterogeneity, underlie 21 different genetic disorders. We briefly review here progress in the study of molecular, cellular and clinical aspects of MSMD since the last comprehensive review published in 2014. Highlights include the discoveries of (1) a new genetic etiology, autosomal recessive signal peptide peptidase-like 2 A deficiency, (2) TYK2-deficient patients with a clinical phenotype of MSMD, (3) an allelic form of partial recessive IFN-γR2 deficiency, and (4) two forms of syndromic MSMD: RORγ/RORγT and JAK1 deficiencies. These recent findings illustrate how genetic and immunological studies of MSMD can shed a unique light onto the mechanisms of protective immunity to mycobacteria in humans.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION The transcription factors signal transducer and activator of transcription (STAT) 1 and STAT3 fulfill fundamental functions in nonimmune and immune cells. The description and follow-up of patients with germline mutations that result in either loss-of-function or gain-of-function have contributed to our understanding of the pathophysiology of these regulators. Depending on the type of mutations, clinical symptoms are complex and can include infection susceptibility, immune dysregulation as well as characteristic nonimmune features. Areas covered: In this review, we provide an overview about mechanistic concepts, clinical manifestations, diagnostic process, and traditional as well as innovative treatment options aiming to help the clinical immunologist to better understand and manage these complex and rare diseases. Clinical and research papers were identified and summarized through PubMed Internet searches, and expert opinions are provided. Expert commentary: The last several years have seen an explosion in the clinical descriptions and pathogenesis knowledge of the diseases caused by GOF and LOF mutations in STAT1 and STAT3. However, harmonization of laboratory testing and follow-up in international cohorts is needed to increase our knowledge about the natural history of these disorders as well as the development of curative or supportive targeted therapies.

Primary immunodeficiency diseases in a tuberculosis endemic region: challenges and opportunities. Genes Immun 2018; 20:447-454.

Abstract
While individual primary immunodeficiency diseases (PIDs) are rare, collectively they represent a significant burden of disease. Recent estimates show that about one million people in Africa suffer from a PID. However, data from African PID registries reflect only a small percentage of the estimated prevalence. This disparity is partly due to the lack of PID awareness and the masking of PIDs by the endemic pathogens. Over three million tuberculosis (TB) cases were reported in Africa in 2016, with many of these from southern Africa. Despite concerted efforts to address this high burden of disease, the underlying genetic correlates of susceptibility to TB remain poorly understood. High penetrance mutations in immune system genes can cause PIDs that selectively predispose individuals to TB and other mycobacterial diseases. Additionally, the identification of individuals at a heightened risk of developing TB or of presenting with severe or disseminated TB due to their genetic ancestry is crucial to promote a positive treatment outcome. The screening for and identification of PID mutations in TB-endemic regions by next-generation sequencing (NGS) represents a promising approach to improve the understanding of what constitutes an effective immune response to TB, as well as the range of associated PIDs and phenotypes.

Abstract
PURPOSE Mendelian suceptibility to mycobacterial disease (MSMD) is a rare primary immunodeficiency predisposing to severe disease caused by mycobacteria and other intracellular pathogens. Delay in diagnosis can have an impact on the patient's prognosis. METHODS We evaluated the IFN-γ circuit by studying IFN-γ production after mycobacterial challenge as well as IL-12Rβ1 expression and STAT4 phosphorylation in response to IL-12p70 stimulation in whole blood of a 6-year-old Peruvian girl with disseminated recurrent mycobacterial infection diagnosed as multidrug-resistant tuberculosis. Genetic studies with Sanger sequencing were used to identify the causative mutation. Microbiological studies based on PCR reactions were used to diagnose the specific mycobacterial species. RESULTS We identified a homozygous mutation in the IL12RB1 gene (p. Arg211*) causing abolished expression of IL-12Rβ1 and IL-12 response. MSMD diagnosis led to a microbiological reevaluation of the patient, revealing a BCG vaccine-related infection instead of tuberculosis. Treatment was then adjusted, with good response. CONCLUSIONS We report the first Peruvian patient with IL-12Rβ1 deficiency. Specific mycobacterial species diagnosis within Mycobacterium tuberculosis complex is still challenging in countries with limited access to PCR-based microbiological diagnostic techniques. Awareness of MSMD warning signs and accurate microbiological diagnosis of mycobacterial infections are of the utmost importance for optimal diagnosis and management of affected patients.

Abstract
PURPOSE Inborn errors of IFN-γ immunity underlie Mendelian susceptibility to mycobacterial disease (MSMD). Autosomal recessive complete IL-12Rβ1 deficiency is the most frequent genetic etiology of MSMD. Only two of the 84 known mutations are copy number variations (CNVs), identified in two of the 213 IL-12Rβ1-deficient patients and two of the 164 kindreds reported. These two CNVs are large deletions found in the heterozygous or homozygous state. We searched for novel families with IL-12Rβ1 deficiency due to CNVs. METHODS We studied six MSMD patients from five unrelated kindreds displaying adverse reactions to BCG vaccination. Three of the patients also presented systemic salmonellosis, two had mucocutaneous candidiasis, and one had disseminated histoplasmosis. We searched for CNVs and other variations by IL12RB1-targeted next-generation sequencing (NGS). RESULTS We identified six new IL-12Rβ1-deficient patients with a complete loss of IL-12Rβ1 expression on phytohemagglutinin-activated T cells and/or EBV-transformed B cells. The cells of these patients did not respond to IL-12 and IL-23. Five different CNVs encompassing IL12RB1 (four deletions and one duplication) were identified in these patients by NGS coverage analysis, either in the homozygous state (n = 1) or in trans (n = 4) with a single-nucleotide variation (n = 3) or a small indel (n = 1). Seven of the nine mutations are novel. Interestingly, four of the five CNVs were predicted to be driven by nearby Alu elements, as well as the two previously reported large deletions. The IL12RB1 locus is actually enriched in Alu elements (44.7%), when compared with the rest of the genome (10.5%). CONCLUSION The IL12RB1 locus is Alu-enriched and therefore prone to rearrangements at various positions. CNVs should be considered in the genetic diagnosis of IL-12Rβ1 deficiency.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW Many genetic conditions predispose affected individuals to opportunistic infections. A number of immunodeficiency diseases, including genetic defects termed Mendelian susceptibility to mycobacterial disease (MSMD), permit infection from many different strains of mycobacteria that would otherwise not cause disease. These include tuberculous and nontuberculous mycobacteria, and bacille Calmette-Guérin vaccine (BCG). Patients may present with infections from other organisms that depend on macrophage function for containment. Defects in multiple genes in the IL-12 and NFKB signaling pathways can cause the MSMD phenotype, some of which include IL12RB1, IL12B, IKBKG, ISG15, IFNGR1, IFNGR2, CYBB, TYK2, IRF8, and STAT1. RECENT FINDINGS Multiple autosomal recessive and dominant, and 2 X-linked recessive gene defects resulting in the MSMD phenotype have been reported, and others await discovery. This review presents the known gene defects and describes clinical findings that result from the mutations. If MSMD is suspected, a careful clinical history and examination and basic immunodeficiency screening tests will narrow the differential diagnosis. A specific diagnosis requires more sophisticated laboratory investigation. Genetic testing permits a definitive diagnosis, permitting genetic counseling. Mild cases respond well to appropriate antibiotic therapy, whereas severe disease may require hematopoietic stem cell transplantation.

Abstract
AIM Identification of crucial genes and possible biomarkers which are involved in Barrett's esophagus (BE) disease was aim of this study. BACKGROUND BE is diagnosed by endoscopy and biopsy and is characterized by esophageal columnar metaplastic epithelium. BE can convert into dysplasia that finally results cancer condition. METHODS Gene expression profiles of BE and normal gastric cardia which are characterized by GSE34619 and GPL6244 platform (1) were retrieved from gene expression omnibus (GEO). The significant differentially expressed genes (DEGs) were analyzed via protein-protein interaction network (PPI) analysis. The nodes of network were enriched via gene ontology (GO) to find biological terms. Action map of network elements was provided. RESULTS Among 250 top DEGs, 100 ones were included in PPI network and KIT, CFTR, IMPDH2, MYB, FLT1, ATP4A, and CPS1 were recognized as prominent genes related to BE. Seven amino acids including arginine, alanine, aspartate, glutamate, valine, leucine and isoleucine which are related to BE were highlighted. CONCLUSION In conclusion five central DEGs; KIT, CFTR, IMPDH2, MYB, and FLT1 were proposed as possible biomarkers for BE. However, validation and more experimental information is require to finalize the findings.
