Genetic epidemiology of autoinflammatory disease variants in Indian population from 1029 whole genomes. JOURNAL OF GENETIC ENGINEERING AND BIOTECHNOLOGY 2021; 19:183.

Abstract
Background Autoinflammatory disorders are the group of inherited inflammatory disorders caused due to the genetic defect in the genes that regulates innate immune systems. These have been clinically characterized based on the duration and occurrence of unprovoked fever, skin rash, and patient’s ancestry. There are several autoinflammatory disorders that are found to be prevalent in a specific population and whose disease genetic epidemiology within the population has been well understood. However, India has a limited number of genetic studies reported for autoinflammatory disorders till date. The whole genome sequencing and analysis of 1029 Indian individuals performed under the IndiGen project persuaded us to perform the genetic epidemiology of the autoinflammatory disorders in India. Results We have systematically annotated the genetic variants of 56 genes implicated in autoinflammatory disorder. These genetic variants were reclassified into five categories (i.e., pathogenic, likely pathogenic, benign, likely benign, and variant of uncertain significance (VUS)) according to the American College of Medical Genetics and Association of Molecular pathology (ACMG-AMP) guidelines. Our analysis revealed 20 pathogenic and likely pathogenic variants with significant differences in the allele frequency compared with the global population. We also found six causal founder variants in the IndiGen dataset belonging to different ancestry. We have performed haplotype prediction analysis for founder mutations haplotype that reveals the admixture of the South Asian population with other populations. The cumulative carrier frequency of the autoinflammatory disorder in India was found to be 3.5% which is much higher than reported. Conclusion With such frequency in the Indian population, there is a great need for awareness among clinicians as well as the general public regarding the autoinflammatory disorder. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first and most comprehensive population scale genetic epidemiological study being reported from India.

Spectrum of Systemic Auto-Inflammatory Diseases in India: A Multi-Centric Experience. Front Immunol 2021; 12:630691.

Abstract
Background: Systemic autoinflammatory diseases (SAID) are rare inherited disorders involving genes regulating innate immune signaling and are characterized by periodic or chronic multi-systemic inflammation. Objective: To describe spectrum of clinical, immunological, molecular features, and outcomes of patients with SAID in India. Methods: Request to share data was sent to multiple centers in India that are involved in care and management of patients with Inborn Errors of Immunity. Six centers provided requisite data that were compiled and analyzed. Results: Data on 107 patients with SAID were collated—of these, 29 patients were excluded due to unavailability of complete information. Twelve patients (15%) had type 1 interferonopathies, 21 (26%) had diseases affecting inflammasomes, 30 patients (41%) had non-inflammasome related conditions and 1five patients (19%) had Periodic Fever, Aphthous Stomatitis, Pharyngitis, Adenitis (PFAPA). Type1 interferonopathies identified in the cohort included patients with Deficiency of Adenosine Deaminase 2 (DADA2) (six patients; five families); STING-associated vasculopathy infantile-onset (SAVI) (three patients, one family); Spondyloenchondro-dysplasia with Immune Dysregulation (SPENCD) (two patients). Diseases affecting inflammasomes include Mevalonate Kinase Deficiency (eight patients); Cryopyrin-Associated Periodic Syndromes (CAPS) (seven patients); NLR Family, Pyrin domain-containing 12 (NLRP12) (two patients); Familial Mediterranean fever (FMF) (two patients); Autoinflammation and PLCG2-associated antibody deficiency and immune dysregulation (APLAID) (two patients). TNF receptor-associated periodic syndrome (TRAPS) (three patients); A20 haploinsufficiency (four patients); Deficiency of Interleukin 1 Receptor Antagonist (DIRA) (two patients) were categorized as non-inflammasome related conditions. There were significant delays in diagnosis Corticosteroids and other immunosuppressive agents were used for treatment as anti-IL-1 drugs and other biological agents were and still are not available in India. Eight (16.3%) patients had so far succumbed to their illness. Conclusions: This is the first nationwide cohort of patients with SAID from India. Clinical manifestations were diverse. Overlapping of clinical features with other relatively common rheumatological disorders often resulted in delays in diagnosis. More nationwide efforts are needed to enhance awareness of SAID among health care professionals and there is an urgent need to make targeted immunotherapies universally available.

Prevalence of MEFV gene mutations in a large cohort of patients with suspected familial Mediterranean fever in Central Anatolia. Ann Saudi Med 2019; 39:382-387. [PMID: 31804137 PMCID: PMC6894460 DOI: 10.5144/0256-4947.2019.382] [Citation(s) in RCA: 10] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Indexed: 11/22/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Familial Mediterranean fever (FMF), an autosomal recessive, autoinflammatory disease that is common in Arabs, Jews, Armenians and Turks, is caused by mutations in the MEFV gene, which encodes a protein called pyrin. The disease is characterised by recurrent fever, peritonitis, pleuritis, abdominal pain and arthralgia. OBJECTIVE Determine the distributions of MEFV mutations and their relationship with clinical manifestations. DESIGN Retrospective, descriptive. SETTING Turkish community. SUBJECTS AND METHODS The study included patients with complaints related to FMF who were admitted to the research hospital of Cumhuriyet University between 2005 and 2017. FMF was diagnosed by physical examination using the Tel-Hashomer criteria. MEFV mutations were detected by reverse hybridization strip assay and pyrosequencing. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURE The prevalence of specific MEFV gene mutations in a large cohort of Middle Anatolia. SAMPLE SIZE 10 033 patients admitted, 1223 with confirmed mutations. RESULTS Of 1684 patients diagnosed by Tel-Hashomer criteria, mutation screening confirmed that 1223 patients (72.6%) had FMF. Male/female ratio of the FMF patients was 1.3:1. One or more FMF mutations were found in 4497 patients (44.8%). 3262 had heterozygous or carrier mutations, 821 had compound heterozygous mutation, 381 had homozygous mutations, and 21 had triple mutations. Sixty-six percent had a family history of the disease and 13.7% of the patients had parental consanguinity. Main symptoms found in the patients were abdominal pain (85.2%), fever (84%), chest pain (30.2%), arthralgia (28.6%), rash or erysipelas-like erythema (8.2%). The most common mutation in this population was M694V (39%) of 5753 alleles. CONCLUSION M694V was the most frequent mutation in our population (Middle Anatolia, Turkey) and cause severe forms of the disease. Patients with E148Q, V726A and R761H mutations may have milder FMF symptoms. There was a high rate of carriers in our study group. LIMITATIONS Amyloidosis, an important complication of the disease, needs to be analyzed. CONFLICT OF INTEREST None.
