Abstract
Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is a chronic, relapsing intestinal disease. Elucidation of the pathogenic mechanisms of IBD requires high-throughput technologies (HTTs) to effectively obtain and analyze large amounts of data. Recently, HTTs have been widely used in IBD, including genomics, transcriptomics, proteomics, microbiomics, metabolomics and single-cell sequencing. When combined with endoscopy, the application of these technologies can provide an in-depth understanding on the alterations of intestinal microbe diversity and abundance, the abnormalities of signaling pathway-mediated immune responses and functionality, and the evaluation of therapeutic effects, improving the accuracy of early diagnosis and treatment of IBD. This review comprehensively summarizes the development and advancement of HTTs, and also highlights the challenges and future directions of these technologies in IBD research. Although HTTs have made striking breakthrough in IBD, more standardized methods and large-scale dataset processing are still needed to achieve the goal of personalized medicine.

Understanding endoscopic and clinicopathological features of patients with very early onset inflammatory bowel disease: Results from a decade of study. Dig Liver Dis 2024; 56:50-54. [PMID: 37925254 DOI: 10.1016/j.dld.2023.08.041] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/12/2023] [Revised: 08/08/2023] [Accepted: 08/08/2023] [Indexed: 11/06/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Very early onset inflammatory bowel disease (VEOIBD) is associated with a unique disease course and distinct endoscopic features. AIMS This study aims to provide a comprehensive description of the endoscopic and histologic features observed in a large cohort of patients with VEOIBD from a tertiary medical center. METHODS A retrospective review of medical records from 2011 to 2021 was conducted to analyze clinical data, including disease phenotypes, endoscopic and histologic findings. Next generation sequencing was performed. RESULTS A total of 225 VEOIBD subjects were included in this study. Monogenic defects were identified in 161 patients. Monogenic IBD patients more commonly had CD-like disease. Colonic involvement was more prevalent among those with monogenic IBD (P<0.001). Pseudo-polyps were significantly more common in the monogenic IBD group (P<0.001), while ileal edema and ulcers were significantly more prevalent in non-monogenic IBD cases. IL10RA deficiency were characterized by colonic ulcers and pseudo-polyps without upper gastrointestinal tract lesions, while patients with TNFAIP3 mutations demonstrated both upper and lower gastrointestinal tract involvement. The non-monogenic IBD patients showed a higher incidence of chronic architectural changes of crypt, increased apoptosis and eosinophils infiltration. CONCLUSIONS Endoscopic and histologic analysis of children with VEOIBD plays a crucial role in facilitating accurate diagnosis. Various forms of monogenic IBD exhibit distinct endoscopic and pathologic changes.

Abstract
Owing to advances in genomics that enable differentiation of molecular aetiologies, patients with monogenic inflammatory bowel disease (mIBD) potentially have access to genotype-guided precision medicine. In this Expert Recommendation, we review the therapeutic research landscape of mIBD, the reported response to therapies, the medication-related risks and systematic bias in reporting. The mIBD field is characterized by the absence of randomized controlled trials and is dominated by retrospective observational data based on case series and case reports. More than 25 off-label therapeutics (including small-molecule inhibitors and biologics) as well as cellular therapies (including haematopoietic stem cell transplantation and gene therapy) have been reported. Heterogeneous reporting of outcomes impedes the generation of robust therapeutic evidence as the basis for clinical decision making in mIBD. We discuss therapeutic goals in mIBD and recommend standardized reporting (mIBD REPORT (monogenic Inflammatory Bowel Disease Report Extended Phenotype and Outcome of Treatments) standards) to stratify patients according to a genetic diagnosis and phenotype, to assess treatment effects and to record safety signals. Implementation of these pragmatic standards should help clinicians to assess the therapy responses of individual patients in clinical practice and improve comparability between observational retrospective studies and controlled prospective trials, supporting future meta-analysis.

Structural and non-coding variants increase the diagnostic yield of clinical whole genome sequencing for rare diseases. Genome Med 2023; 15:94. [PMID: 37946251 PMCID: PMC10636885 DOI: 10.1186/s13073-023-01240-0] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/14/2022] [Accepted: 09/27/2023] [Indexed: 11/12/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Whole genome sequencing is increasingly being used for the diagnosis of patients with rare diseases. However, the diagnostic yields of many studies, particularly those conducted in a healthcare setting, are often disappointingly low, at 25-30%. This is in part because although entire genomes are sequenced, analysis is often confined to in silico gene panels or coding regions of the genome. METHODS We undertook WGS on a cohort of 122 unrelated rare disease patients and their relatives (300 genomes) who had been pre-screened by gene panels or arrays. Patients were recruited from a broad spectrum of clinical specialties. We applied a bioinformatics pipeline that would allow comprehensive analysis of all variant types. We combined established bioinformatics tools for phenotypic and genomic analysis with our novel algorithms (SVRare, ALTSPLICE and GREEN-DB) to detect and annotate structural, splice site and non-coding variants. RESULTS Our diagnostic yield was 43/122 cases (35%), although 47/122 cases (39%) were considered solved when considering novel candidate genes with supporting functional data into account. Structural, splice site and deep intronic variants contributed to 20/47 (43%) of our solved cases. Five genes that are novel, or were novel at the time of discovery, were identified, whilst a further three genes are putative novel disease genes with evidence of causality. We identified variants of uncertain significance in a further fourteen candidate genes. The phenotypic spectrum associated with RMND1 was expanded to include polymicrogyria. Two patients with secondary findings in FBN1 and KCNQ1 were confirmed to have previously unidentified Marfan and long QT syndromes, respectively, and were referred for further clinical interventions. Clinical diagnoses were changed in six patients and treatment adjustments made for eight individuals, which for five patients was considered life-saving. CONCLUSIONS Genome sequencing is increasingly being considered as a first-line genetic test in routine clinical settings and can make a substantial contribution to rapidly identifying a causal aetiology for many patients, shortening their diagnostic odyssey. We have demonstrated that structural, splice site and intronic variants make a significant contribution to diagnostic yield and that comprehensive analysis of the entire genome is essential to maximise the value of clinical genome sequencing.

Abstract
Immune regulation plays a crucial role in human health and disease. Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is a chronic relapse bowel disease with an increasing incidence worldwide. Clinical treatments for IBD are limited and inefficient. However, the pathogenesis of immune-mediated IBD remains unclear. This review describes the activation of innate and adaptive immune functions by intestinal immune cells to regulate intestinal immune balance and maintain intestinal mucosal integrity. Changes in susceptible genes, autophagy, energy metabolism, and other factors interact in a complex manner with the immune system, eventually leading to intestinal immune imbalance and the onset of IBD. These events indicate that intestinal immune imbalance is an alarm for IBD development, further opening new possibilities for the unprecedented development of immunotherapy for IBD.

Abstract
Congenital defects of neutrophil number or function are associated with a severe infectious phenotype that may require intensive medical attention and interventions to be controlled. While the infectious complications in inherited neutrophil disorders are easily understood much less clear and explained are autoimmune and autoinflammatory phenomena. We survey the clinical burden of autoimmunity/autoinflammation in this setting, search for common patterns, discuss potential mechanisms and emerging treatments.

[PMID: 37238286 PMCID: PMC10217388 DOI: 10.3390/diagnostics13101803] [Citation(s) in RCA: 8] [Impact Index Per Article: 8.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/04/2023] [Revised: 05/12/2023] [Accepted: 05/17/2023] [Indexed: 05/28/2023] Open
Abstract
Glycogen storage disease type Ib (GSD1b) is due to a defect in the glucose-6-phosphate transporter (G6PT) of the endoplasmic reticulum, which is encoded by the SLC37A4 gene. This transporter allows the glucose-6-phosphate that is made in the cytosol to cross the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) membrane and be hydrolyzed by glucose-6-phosphatase (G6PC1), a membrane enzyme whose catalytic site faces the lumen of the ER. Logically, G6PT deficiency causes the same metabolic symptoms (hepatorenal glycogenosis, lactic acidosis, hypoglycemia) as deficiency in G6PC1 (GSD1a). Unlike GSD1a, GSD1b is accompanied by low neutrophil counts and impaired neutrophil function, which is also observed, independently of any metabolic problem, in G6PC3 deficiency. Neutrophil dysfunction is, in both diseases, due to the accumulation of 1,5-anhydroglucitol-6-phosphate (1,5-AG6P), a potent inhibitor of hexokinases, which is slowly formed in the cells from 1,5-anhydroglucitol (1,5-AG), a glucose analog that is normally present in blood. Healthy neutrophils prevent the accumulation of 1,5-AG6P due to its hydrolysis by G6PC3 following transport into the ER by G6PT. An understanding of this mechanism has led to a treatment aimed at lowering the concentration of 1,5-AG in blood by treating patients with inhibitors of SGLT2, which inhibits renal glucose reabsorption. The enhanced urinary excretion of glucose inhibits the 1,5-AG transporter, SGLT5, causing a substantial decrease in the concentration of this polyol in blood, an increase in neutrophil counts and function and a remarkable improvement in neutropenia-associated clinical signs and symptoms.

Abstract
Genomic medicine enables the identification of patients with rare or ultra-rare monogenic forms of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) and supports clinical decision making. Patients with monogenic IBD frequently experience extremely early onset of treatment-refractory disease, with complex extraintestinal disease typical of immunodeficiency. Since more than 100 monogenic disorders can present with IBD, new genetic disorders and variants are being discovered every year, and as phenotypic expression of the gene defects is variable, adaptive genomic technologies are required. Monogenic IBD has become a key area to establish the concept of precision medicine. Clear guidance and standardised, affordable applications of genomic technologies are needed to implement exome or genome sequencing in clinical practice. This joint British Society of Gastroenterology and British Society of Paediatric Gastroenterology, Hepatology and Nutrition guideline aims to ensure that testing resources are appropriately applied to maximise the benefit to patients on a national scale, minimise health-care disparities in accessing genomic technologies, and optimise resource use. We set out the structural requirements for genomic medicine as part of a multidisciplinary team approach. Initiation of genomic diagnostics should be guided by diagnostic criteria for the individual patient, in particular the age of IBD onset and the patient's history, and potential implications for future therapies. We outline the diagnostic care pathway for paediatric and adult patients. This guideline considers how to handle clinically actionable findings in research studies and the impact of consumer-based genomics for monogenic IBD. This document was developed by multiple stakeholders, including UK paediatric and adult gastroenterology physicians, immunologists, transplant specialists, clinical geneticists, scientists, and research leads of UK genetic programmes, in partnership with patient representatives of several IBD and rare disease charities.

Abstract
The energy metabolism of myeloid cells depends primarily on glycolysis. 1,5-Anhydroglucitol (1,5AG), a natural monosaccharide, is erroneously phosphorylated by glucose-phosphorylating enzymes to produce 1,5-anhydroglucitol-6-phosphate (1,5AG6P), a powerful inhibitor of hexokinases. The endoplasmic reticulum transporter (SLC37A4/G6PT) and the phosphatase G6PC3 cooperate to dephosphorylate 1,5AG6P. Failure to eliminate 1,5AG6P is the mechanism of neutrophil dysfunction and death in G6PC3-deficient mice. Sodium glucose cotransporter 2 (SLGT2) inhibitor reduces 1,5AG level in the blood and restores the neutrophil count in G6PC3-deficient mice. In the investigator-initiated study, a 30-year-old G6PC3-deficient woman with recurrent infections, distressing gastrointestinal symptoms, and multi-lineage cytopenia was treated with an SLGT2-inhibitor. A significant increase in all the hematopoietic cell lineages and substantial improvement in the quality of life was observed.

Abstract
Immune-mediated inflammatory diseases (IMIDs) are a diverse group of complex inflammatory diseases that result from dysregulated immune pathways and can involve any system of the human body. Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is one such disease involving the gastrointestinal (GI) system. With high prevalence in the West and increasing incidence in newly industrialized countries, IBD poses a significant burden on health care. IMIDs of the GI system other than IBD can have similar clinical features, causing diagnostic and therapeutic challenges. Although these disorders share a common pathophysiology, the defects can occur anywhere in the complex network of cytokines, inflammatory mediators, and innate and adaptive systems, leading to unregulated inflammation. Precise knowledge about them will help determine the possible targeted therapy. Thus, it is essential to distinguish these disorders from IBD. This review describes various IMIDs of the GI tract that mimic IBD.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES Glucose-6-phosphate catalytic subunit 3 (G6PC3) deficiency is characterized by severe congenital neutropenia with recurrent pyogenic infections, a prominent superficial venous pattern, and cardiovascular and urogenital malformations, caused by an alteration of glucose homeostasis, with increased endoplasmic reticulum stress and cell apoptosis. METHODS We reviewed our patients with G6PC3 deficiency diagnosed along the last decade in Mexico; we also searched the PubMed/Medline database for the terms ("G6PC3 deficiency" OR "Dursun syndrome" OR "Severe congenital neutropenia type 4"), and selected articles published in English from 2009 to 2020. Results We found 89 patients reported from at least 14 countries in 4 continents. We describe five new cases from Mexico. Of the 94 patients 56% are male, 48% from Middle East countries, none of them had adverse reactions to live vaccines; all presented with at least one severe infection prior to age 2. 75% had syndromic features, mainly atrial septal defect in 55%, and prominent superficial veins in 62%. CONCLUSIONS With a total of 94 patients reported in the past decade, we delineate the most frequent laboratory and genetic features, their treatment, and outcomes, and to expand the knowledge of syndromic and non-syndromic phenotypes in these patients.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Glycogen storage disease (GSD) is an autosomal recessive inborn metabolic disorder. Patients with GSD are prone to hypoglycaemia, hyperlactacidemia and bleeding. GSD type 1b (GSD-1b) patients specifically can develop neutropenia, recurrent bacterial infection and inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). Documentation of the long-term outcomes of surgical management of GSD-1b has been scarce, especially for Asian patients. We herein describe a case of GSD-1b complicated by IBD-like colitis and coloduodenal fistula. The patient was managed successfully with surgical intervention.
CASE SUMMARY A 20-year-old Chinese lady confirmed by genetic testing to have GSD-1b was initially managed with uncooked cornstarch and granulocyte-colony stimulating factor. With recurrent abdominal symptoms, her condition was treated as clinical “Crohn’s disease” with mesalazine, prednisolone and azathioprine conservatively. Colonoscopy showed a tight stricture at the hepatic flexure. Subsequent computerized tomographic colonography revealed a phlegmon at the ileocaecal region with a suspected coloduodenal fistula. Eventually an exploratory laparotomy was performed and severe colitis at the ascending colon with coloduodenal fistula was confirmed. Right hemicolectomy with primary anastomosis and repair of the duodenum were performed. Surgical management of complications from GSD-1b associated IBD-like colitis has rarely been described. First-line treatment would usually be conservative. Surgical intervention like hemicolectomy is mainly reserved for refractory cases.
CONCLUSION Surgical management of coloduodenal fistula in GSD-1b patients is a feasible and safe option when failed conservative management.

Abstract
Glycogen storage diseases (GSDs) are a group of 19 hereditary diseases caused by a lack of one or more enzymes involved in the synthesis or degradation of glycogen and are characterized by deposits or abnormal types of glycogen in tissues. Their frequency is very low and they are considered rare diseases. Except for X-linked type IX, the different types are inherited in an autosomal recessive pattern. In this study we reviewed the literature from 1977 to 2020 concerning GSDs, biomarkers, and metabolic imbalances in the symptoms of some GSDs. Most of the reported studies were performed with very few patients. Classification of emerging biomarkers between different types of diseases (hepatics GSDs, McArdle and PDs and other possible biomarkers) was done for better understanding. Calprotectin for hepatics GSDs and urinary glucose tetrasaccharide for Pompe disease have been approved for clinical use, and most of the markers mentioned in this review only need clinical validation, as a final step for their routine use. Most of the possible biomarkers are implied in hepatocellular adenomas, cardiomyopathies, in malfunction of skeletal muscle, in growth retardation, neutropenia, osteopenia and bowel inflammation. However, a few markers have lost interest due to a great variability of results, which is the case of biotinidase, actin alpha 2, smooth muscle, aorta and fibroblast growth factor receptor 4. This is the first review published on emerging biomarkers with a potential application to GSDs.

Treating neutropenia and neutrophil dysfunction in glycogen storage disease type Ib with an SGLT2 inhibitor. Blood 2021; 136:1033-1043. [PMID: 32294159 DOI: 10.1182/blood.2019004465] [Citation(s) in RCA: 85] [Impact Index Per Article: 28.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/09/2019] [Accepted: 04/07/2020] [Indexed: 02/07/2023] Open
Abstract
Neutropenia and neutrophil dysfunction cause serious infections and inflammatory bowel disease in glycogen storage disease type Ib (GSD-Ib). Our discovery that accumulating 1,5-anhydroglucitol-6-phosphate (1,5AG6P) caused neutropenia in a glucose-6-phosphatase 3 (G6PC3)-deficient mouse model and in 2 rare diseases (GSD-Ib and G6PC3 deficiency) led us to repurpose the widely used antidiabetic drug empagliflozin, an inhibitor of the renal glucose cotransporter sodium glucose cotransporter 2 (SGLT2). Off-label use of empagliflozin in 4 GSD-Ib patients with incomplete response to granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (GCSF) treatment decreased serum 1,5AG and neutrophil 1,5AG6P levels within 1 month. Clinically, symptoms of frequent infections, mucosal lesions, and inflammatory bowel disease resolved, and no symptomatic hypoglycemia was observed. GCSF could be discontinued in 2 patients and tapered by 57% and 81%, respectively, in the other 2. The fluctuating neutrophil numbers in all patients were increased and stabilized. We further demonstrated improved neutrophil function: normal oxidative burst (in 3 of 3 patients tested), corrected protein glycosylation (2 of 2), and normal neutrophil chemotaxis (1 of 1), and bactericidal activity (1 of 1) under treatment. In summary, the glucose-lowering SGLT2 inhibitor empagliflozin, used for type 2 diabetes, was successfully repurposed for treating neutropenia and neutrophil dysfunction in the rare inherited metabolic disorder GSD-Ib without causing symptomatic hypoglycemia. We ascribe this to an improvement in neutrophil function resulting from the reduction of the intracellular concentration of 1,5AG6P.

Abstract
Minichromosome maintenance protein 10 (MCM10) is essential for eukaryotic DNA replication. Here, we describe compound heterozygous MCM10 variants in patients with distinctive, but overlapping, clinical phenotypes: natural killer (NK) cell deficiency (NKD) and restrictive cardiomyopathy (RCM) with hypoplasia of the spleen and thymus. To understand the mechanism of MCM10-associated disease, we modeled these variants in human cell lines. MCM10 deficiency causes chronic replication stress that reduces cell viability due to increased genomic instability and telomere erosion. Our data suggest that loss of MCM10 function constrains telomerase activity by accumulating abnormal replication fork structures enriched with single-stranded DNA. Terminally-arrested replication forks in MCM10-deficient cells require endonucleolytic processing by MUS81, as MCM10:MUS81 double mutants display decreased viability and accelerated telomere shortening. We propose that these bi-allelic variants in MCM10 predispose specific cardiac and immune cell lineages to prematurely arrest during differentiation, causing the clinical phenotypes observed in both NKD and RCM patients.

Abstract
BACKGROUND It is important to identify patients with monogenic IBD as management may differ from classical IBD. In this position statement we formulate recommendations for the use of genomics in evaluating potential monogenic causes of IBD across age groups. METHODS The consensus included paediatric IBD specialists from the Paediatric IBD Porto group of the European Society of Paediatric Gastroenterology, Hepatology and Nutrition (ESPGHAN) and specialists from several monogenic IBD research consortia. We defined key topics and performed a systematic literature review to cover indications, technologies (targeted panel, exome and genome sequencing), gene panel setup, cost-effectiveness of genetic screening, and requirements for the clinical care setting. We developed recommendations that were voted upon by all authors and Porto group members (32 voting specialists). RESULTS We recommend next-generation DNA-sequencing technologies to diagnose monogenic causes of IBD in routine clinical practice embedded in a setting of multidisciplinary patient care. Routine genetic screening is not recommended for all IBD patients. Genetic testing should be considered depending on age of IBD-onset (infantile IBD, very early-onset IBD, paediatric or young adult IBD), and further criteria, such as family history, relevant comorbidities, and extraintestinal manifestations. Genetic testing is also recommended in advance of hematopoietic stem cell transplantation. We developed a diagnostic algorithm that includes a gene panel of 75 monogenic IBD genes. Considerations are provided also for low resource countries. CONCLUSIONS Genomic technologies should be considered an integral part of patient care to investigate patients at risk for monogenic forms of IBD.

Abstract
In recent years, cell-based therapies have been explored in various immune-mediated inflammatory diseases, including inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). Cell therapy is the process of introducing new cells into an organism or tissue in order to treat a disease. The most studied cellular treatment in IBD was "stem cells-based therapy", which was explored according to different protocols in terms of type of donors, stem cells sources, study design and clinical endpoints. More recently, preliminary studies have also described the clinical use of "regulatory cells", which include T-reg and Tr1 cells, and "tolerogenic" dendritic cells. Finally, induced pluripotent stem cells are the subject of an intensive preclinical research program on animal models, including those related to colitis.

Abstract
Infantile and very early onset inflammatory bowel disease (VEOIBD) are a rare phenomenon wherein patients develop intestinal inflammation with typical IBD symptoms before ages 2 and 6, respectively. In recent years, there has been an increasing number of monogenetic immunological disorders identified that lead a child to develop VEOIBD. We present a case of an infant boy who presented with hematochezia and thrombocytopenia in the first week of life and developed IBD by the age of 1 month. Additional clues to his diagnosis included lymphopenia and nuclear herniation observed in his neutrophils. Compound heterozygous damaging variants were identified in WD Repeat Domain 1 (WDR1) by whole-exome sequencing (WES) and represents a novel cause of VEOIBD. Our patient's IBD and immunologic phenotype was successfully treated by hematopoietic stem cell transplant (HSCT).

Neutrophil dysfunction triggers inflammatory bowel disease in G6PC3 deficiency. J Leukoc Biol 2020; 109:1147-1154.

Abstract
The glucose-6-phosphatase catalytic subunit 3 (G6PC3) encodes a ubiquitously expressed enzyme that regulates cytoplasmic glucose availability. Loss-of-function biallelic G6PC3 mutations cause severe congenital neutropenia and a diverse spectrum of extra-hematological manifestations, among which inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) has been anecdotally reported. Neutrophil function and clinical response to granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (G-CSF) and hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) were investigated in 4 children with G6PC3 deficiency-associated IBD. G6PC3 deficiency was associated with early-onset IBD refractory to treatment with steroids and infliximab. The symptoms of IBD progressed despite G-CSF treatment. In vitro studies on the patients' blood showed that neutrophils displayed higher levels of activation markers (CD11b, CD66b, and CD14), excessive IL-8 and reactive oxygen species, and increased apoptosis and secondary necrosis. Secondary necrosis was exaggerated after stimulation with Escherichia coli and could be partially rescued with supplemental exogenous glucose. HSCT led to normalization of neutrophil function and remission of gastrointestinal symptoms. We conclude that neutrophils in G6PC3 deficiency release pro-inflammatory mediators when exposed to gut bacteria, associated with intestinal inflammation, despite treatment with G-CSF. HSCT is an effective therapeutic option in patients with G6PC3 deficiency-associated IBD refractory to immune suppressants.

Abstract
Background: More than 50 different monogenic disorders have been identified as directly causing inflammatory bowel diseases, typically manifesting in the first years of life. We present the clinical course and immunological work-up of an adult patient who presented in adolescent years with an atypical gastrointestinal phenotype and was diagnosed more than two decades later with a monogenic disorder with important therapeutic implications. Methods: Whole exome sequencing was performed in a 37-years-old patient with a history of diarrhea since adolescence. Sanger sequencing was used to validate the suspected variant. Mass cytometry (CyTOF) and flow cytometry were conducted on peripheral blood mononuclear cells for deep immunophenotyping. Next-generation sequencing of the TCRB and IgH was performed for global immune repertoire analysis of circulating lymphocytes. Results: We identified a novel deleterious c.1455C>A (p.Y485X) mutation in LRBA. CyTOF studies demonstrated significant changes in immune landscape in the LRBA-deficient patient, including an increase in myeloid derived suppressor cells and double-negative T cells, decreased B cells, low ratio of naïve:memory T cells, and reduced capacity of T cells to secrete various cytokines following stimulation, including tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-α) and interferon gamma (IFN-γ). In addition, this patient exhibited low frequency of regulatory T cells, with a reduction in their CTLA4 expression and interleukin (IL)-10 secretion. Finally, we show marked oligoclonal expansion of specific B- and T-cell clones in the peripheral blood of the LRBA-deficient patient. Conclusions: LRBA deficiency is characterized by marked immunological changes in innate and adaptive immune cells. This case highlights the importance of advanced genetic studies in patients with a unique phenotype, regardless of their age at presentation.
