Abstract
Rubella virus-associated granulomas commonly occur in immunocompromised individuals, exhibiting a diverse range of clinical presentations. These manifestations can vary from predominantly superficial cutaneous plaques or nonulcerative nodules to more severe deep ulcerative lesions, often accompanied by extensive necrosis and significant tissue destruction. TAP1 deficiency, an exceedingly rare primary immune-deficiency disorder, presents with severe chronic sino-pulmonary infection and cutaneous granulomas. This report highlights the occurrence of rubella virus-associated cutaneous granulomas in patients with TAP1 deficiency. Notably, the pathogenic mutation responsible for TAP1 deficiency stems from a novel genetic alteration that has not been previously reported. This novel observation holds potential significance for the field of diagnosis and investigative efforts in the context of immunodeficiency disorders.

Abstract
Systemic autoinflammatory diseases (SAIDs) are disorders of innate immunity, which are characterized by unprovoked recurrent flares of systemic inflammation often characterized by fever associated with clinical manifestations mainly involving the musculoskeletal, mucocutaneous, gastrointestinal, and nervous systems. Several conditions also present with varied, sometimes prominent, involvement of the vascular system, with features of vasculitis characterized by variable target vessel involvement and organ damage. Here, we report a systematic review of vasculitis and vasculopathy associated with inborn errors of immunity.

Abstract
Granulomas have been defined as inflammatory infiltrates formed by recruitment of macrophages and T cells. The three-dimensional spherical structure typically consists of a central core of tissue resident macrophages which may merge into multinucleated giant cells surrounded by T cells at the periphery. Granulomas may be triggered by infectious and non-infectious antigens. Cutaneous and visceral granulomas are common in inborn errors of immunity (IEI), particularly among patients with chronic granulomatous disease (CGD), combined immunodeficiency (CID), and common variable immunodeficiency (CVID). The estimated prevalence of granulomas in IEI ranges from 1%-4%. Infectious agents causing granulomas such Mycobacteria and Coccidioides presenting atypically may be 'sentinel' presentations for possible underlying immunodeficiency. Deep sequencing of granulomas in IEI has revealed non-classical antigens such as wild-type and RA27/3 vaccine-strain Rubella virus. Granulomas in IEI are associated with significant morbidity and mortality. The heterogeneity of granuloma presentation in IEI presents challenges for mechanistic approaches to treatment. In this review, we discuss the main infectious triggers for granulomas in IEI and the major forms of IEI presenting with 'idiopathic' non-infectious granulomas. We also discuss models to study granulomatous inflammation and the impact of deep-sequencing technology while searching for infectious triggers of granulomatous inflammation. We summarize the overarching goals of management and highlight the therapeutic options reported for specific granuloma presentations in IEI.

Abstract
ABC transporters are expressed in skin cells to protect them against harmful xenobiotics. Moreover, these transmembrane proteins have a number of additional functions that ensure skin homeostasis. This review summarizes the current knowledge about the role of specific ABC proteins in the skin, including multi-drug resistance transporters (MDR1/3), the transporter associated with antigen processing 1/2 (TAP1/2), the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR), sulfonylurea receptors (SUR1/2), and the breast cancer resistance protein (BCRP). Additionally, the effect of UV radiation on ABC transporters is shown. The exposure of skin cells to UV radiation often leads to increased activity of ABC transporters-as has been observed in the case of MDRs, TAPs, CFTR, and BCRP. A different effect of oxidative stress has been observed in the case of mitochondrial SURs. However, the limited data in the literature-as indicated in this article-highlights the limited number of experimental studies dealing with the role of ABC transporters in the physiology and pathophysiology of skin cells and the skin as a whole. At the same time, the importance of such knowledge in relation to the possibility of daily exposure to UV radiation and xenobiotics, used for both skin care and the treatment of its diseases, is emphasized.

Abstract
Sarcoidosis is a systemic granulomatous disease of unknown cause characterized by a wide variety of presentations. Its diagnosis is based on three major criteria: a clinical presentation compatible with sarcoidosis, the presence of non-necrotizing granulomatous inflammation in one or more tissue samples, and the exclusion of alternative causes of granulomatous disease. Many conditions may mimic a sarcoid-like granulomatous reaction. These conditions include infections, neoplasms, immunodeficiencies, and drug-induced diseases. Moreover, patients with sarcoidosis are at risk of developing opportunistic infections or lymphoma. Reliably confirming the diagnosis of sarcoidosis and better identifying new events are major clinical problems in daily practice. To address such issues, we present seven emblematic cases, seen in our department, over a ten-year period along with a literature review about case reports of conditions misdiagnosed as sarcoidosis.

Structure and function of the porcine TAP protein and its inhibition by the viral immune evasion protein ICP47. Int J Biol Macromol 2021; 178:514-526.

Abstract
The binding mode to TAP (i.e., the peptide transporter associated with antigen processing) from a viral peptide thus far has been unknown in the field of antiviral immunity, but an interfering mode from a virus-encoded TAP inhibitor has been well documented with respect to blocking the TAP function. In the current study, we predicted the structure of the pig TAP transporter and its inhibition complex by the small viral protein ICP47 of the herpes simplex virus (HSV) encoded by the TAP inhibitor to exploit inhibition of the TAP transporter as the host's immune evasion strategy. We found that the hot spots (residues Leu5, Tyr22, and Leu51) on the ICP47 inhibitor interface tended to prevail over the favored Leu and Tyr, which contributed to significant functional binding at the C-termini recognition principle of the TAP. We further characterized the specificity determinants of the peptide transporter from the pig TAP by the ICP47 inhibitor effects and multidrug TmrAB transporter from the Thermus thermophillus and its immunity regarding its structural homolog of the pig TAP. The specialized structure-function relationship from the pig TAP exporter could provide insight into substrate specificity of the unique immunological properties from the host organism. The TAP disarming capacity from all five viral inhibitors (i.e., the five virus-encoded TAP inhibitors of ICP47, UL49.5, U6, BNLF2a, and CPXV012 proteins) was linked to the infiltration of the TAP functional structure in an unstable conformation and the mounting susceptibility caused by the host's TAP polymorphism. It is anticipated that the functional characterization of the pig TAP transporter based on the pig genomic variants will lead to additional insights into the genotype and single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) in relation to antiviral resistance and disease susceptibility.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW Here we review the rheumatologic and autoimmune features of primary immune deficiencies with a focus on recently recognized genetic diseases, the spectrum of autoimmunity in PID, and targeted therapies. RECENT FINDINGS Primary immune deficiencies (PIDs) were initially described as genetic diseases of the immune system leading to susceptibility to infection. It is now well recognized that immune dysfunction and dysregulation also cause noninfectious complications including autoimmunity. The increased application of molecular testing for PID has revealed the diversity of clinical disease. Recent discoveries of diseases with prominent autoimmunity include activated phosphoinositide 3-kinase δ syndrome and PIDs caused by gain-of-function in STAT1 and STAT3. Similarly, identification of larger cohorts of patients with molecular diagnoses in more common PIDs, such as common variable immune deficiency (CVID), has led to increased understanding of the range of autoimmunity in PIDs. Understanding the molecular basis of these PIDs has the potential to lead to targeted therapy to treat associated autoimmunity. SUMMARY Autoimmunity and rheumatologic disease can be presenting symptoms and/or complicating features of primary immunodeficiencies. Evaluation for PIDs in patients who have early-onset, multiple, and/or atypical autoimmunity can enhance diagnosis and therapeutic options.

Abstract
Altered and infected cells are eliminated by CD8+ cytotoxic T lymphocytes. This requires production of antigenic peptides mostly in the cytosol, transport to the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) by the transporter associated with antigen processing (TAP), and cell surface presentation by major histocompatibility complex class I (MHC-I). Strikingly, antigen presentation occurs without TAP, although it is inefficient and associated to human pathology. TAP-independent peptides derive both from membrane and secreted proteins, as well as cytosolic ones. The efficiency of TAP-independent presentation may be impacted by the availability of receptive MHC-I, and in turn by the functional presence in the ER of the peptide-loading complex, itself anchored on TAP. Without TAP, surface expression of human leukocyte antigen (HLA)-B allotypes varies widely, with those presenting a broader peptide repertoire among the most TAP-independent. Much remains to be learned on the alternative cellular pathways for antigen presentation in the absence of TAP.

Abstract
The laboratory hosting me for my Ph.D. described in 1994 the first human cases of TAP deficiency in two siblings with recurrent bacterial airway infections and a negative Human Leukocyte Antigen class I (HLA) serotyping. At this time, it became clear that natural killer (NK) cells interact with HLA class I molecules which inhibit them. Inhibitory receptors were postulated, and Alessandro Moretta was the first to generate monoclonal anti-human NK cell antibodies that bound to such molecules, which he characterized in detail (Killer Immunoglobulin-like receptors—KIR). Natural killer cells from healthy donors preferentially kill targets with absent HLA class I molecules (“missing self” concept), whereas we observed that the NK cells from the TAP-deficient patients were hypo-responsive and did not lyse the HLA class I-negative leukemia cell line K562. Moreover, they were not very active in antibody-dependent cellular cytotoxicity assays. To address the question if such NK cells would express KIR or not, my thesis supervisor requested the anti-KIR antibodies from Alessandro Moretta, who was kind enough to provide us generously with aliquots. It turned out that the NK cells from the TAP-deficient individuals expressed most of these inhibitory receptors normally. We then had the privilege to receive almost every new antibody generated in the Moretta lab and to complete the phenotypic studies of the NK cells from our patients. I had the great chance to meet Alessandro Moretta at several occasions. He deeply impressed me each time and strongly influenced my way of thinking.
