Abstract
X-linked immunodeficiency with magnesium defect, Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) infection, and neoplasia (XMEN) is an extremely rare inborn error of immunity (IEI) caused by X-linked recessive inheritance and loss-of-function mutations in the MAGT1 gene, resulting in magnesium ion channel defects. This article reports 2 cases of systemic EBV-positive T-cell Lymphoma of childhood (SETLC) associated with XMEN, which have not been reported before. Whole exome sequencing (WES) in their family revealed previously unreported MAGT1 gene mutations (c.77T>C, p.I26T; c.956-957del: p.Ser319Tyrfs) inherited from their mothers. These mutations expand the spectrum of gene mutations in XMEN disease. The importance of genetic testing for MAGT1 mutations in the initial diagnosis of SETLC was emphasized. We also review the literature on this uncommon IEI.

Abstract
Magnesium transporter 1 (MAGT1) gene loss-of-function variants lead to X-linked MAGT1 deficiency with increased susceptibility to EBV infection and N-glycosylation defect (XMEN), a condition with a variety of clinical and immunological effects. In addition, MAGT1 deficiency has been classified as a congenital disorder of glycosylation (CDG) due to its unique role in glycosylation of multiple substrates including NKG2D, necessary for viral protection. Due to the predisposition for EBV, this etiology has been linked with hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis (HLH), however only limited literature exists. Here we present a complex case with HLH and EBV-driven classic Hodgkin lymphoma (cHL) as the presenting manifestation of underlying immune defect. However, the patient's underlying immunodeficiency was not identified until his second recurrence of Hodgkin disease, recurrent episodes of Herpes Zoster, and after he had undergone autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplant (HSCT) for refractory Hodgkin lymphoma. This rare presentation of HLH and recurrent lymphomas without some of the classical immune deficiency manifestations of MAGT1 deficiency led us to review the literature for similar presentations and to report the evolving spectrum of disease in published literature. Our systematic review showcased that MAGT1 predisposes to multiple viruses (including EBV) and adds risk of viral-driven neoplasia. The roles of MAGT1 in the immune system and glycosylation were highlighted through the multiple organ dysfunction showcased by the previously validated Immune Deficiency and Dysregulation Activity (IDDA2.1) score and CDG-specific Nijmegen Pediatric CDG Rating Scale (NPCRS) score for the patient cohort in the systematic review.

Revisiting the immunopathology of congenital disorders of glycosylation: an updated review. Front Immunol 2024; 15:1350101. [PMID: 38550576 PMCID: PMC10972870 DOI: 10.3389/fimmu.2024.1350101] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/08/2023] [Accepted: 02/26/2024] [Indexed: 04/02/2024] Open
Abstract
Glycosylation is a critical post-translational modification that plays a pivotal role in several biological processes, such as the immune response. Alterations in glycosylation can modulate the course of various pathologies, such as the case of congenital disorders of glycosylation (CDG), a group of more than 160 rare and complex genetic diseases. Although the link between glycosylation and immune dysfunction has already been recognized, the immune involvement in most CDG remains largely unexplored and poorly understood. In this study, we provide an update on the immune dysfunction and clinical manifestations of the 12 CDG with major immune involvement, organized into 6 categories of inborn errors of immunity according to the International Union of Immunological Societies (IUIS). The immune involvement in phosphomannomutase 2 (PMM2)-CDG - the most frequent CDG - was comprehensively reviewed, highlighting a higher prevalence of immune issues during infancy and childhood and in R141H-bearing genotypes. Finally, using PMM2-CDG as a model, we point to links between abnormal glycosylation patterns in host cells and possibly favored interactions with microorganisms that may explain the higher susceptibility to infection. Further characterizing immunopathology and unusual host-pathogen adhesion in CDG can not only improve immunological standards of care but also pave the way for innovative preventive measures and targeted glycan-based therapies that may improve quality of life for people living with CDG.

The first autopsy case of Epstein-Barr virus-positive marginal zone lymphoma that deteriorated after COVID-19 vaccination. Pathol Int 2024; 74:87-92.

Abstract
This is the first autopsy case of Epstein-Barr virus-positive marginal zone lymphoma (EBV + MZL) with an other iatrogenic immunodeficiency-associated lymphoproliferative disorders (LPD) (methotrexate [MTX]-associated LPD) that deteriorated after the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) vaccine. This case had a unique immunophenotype. A 71-year-old female patient with rheumatoid arthritis receiving MTX presented with fatigue 1 week after the SARS-CoV-2 vaccination. She was hospitalized due to hepatorenal dysfunction and pancytopenia. Computed tomography revealed systemic lymphadenopathy. Her physical condition deteriorated, and the patient died. The autopsy revealed systemic lymphadenopathy comprising medium-sized atypical lymphocytes and scattered Hodgkin/Reed-Sternberg (H/RS)-like cells. An immunohistochemical examination showed that atypical lymphocytes were positive for CD79a and MUM-1 and some were positive for CD20 and IRTA-1. H/RS-like cells were immunoreactive for CD30 and CD15 and ringed by T cells. Both cell types were positive for EBV-encoded small RNA. The majority of H/RS-like cells were positive for CD20, whereas a small number of CD3-positive cells were admixed. We herein presented the first autopsy case of EBV + MZL that deteriorated after the SARS-CoV-2 vaccination.

Novel MAGT1 Mutation Found in the First Chinese XMEN in Hong Kong. Case Reports Immunol 2022; 2022:2390167.

Abstract
The availability of next-generation sequencing (NGS) helps to resolve many of the diagnostic odysseys. Common variable immunodeficiency disease (CVID) is an entity encompassing a heterogenous group of conditions with hypogammaglobulinemia, and it is a diagnosis of exclusion. In recent years, with the advances of molecular diagnostics, more and more patients have been reclassified with more defined entities after their genetic causes were found. Here, we reported a young man, who was managed as CVID since childhood, presenting with recurrent infection, hypogammaglobulinemia, and immune thrombocytopenia (ITP). Finally, more than a decade after initial presentation, gene panel testing revealed a novel mutation in the MAGT1 gene. Collectively, the genetic findings and clinical presentations confirm the diagnosis of X-linked immunodeficiency with magnesium defect and Epstein–Barr virus infection and neoplasia (XMEN). MAGT1 is an evolutionarily conserved, magnesium-specific transporter expressed in all mammalian cells that plays an essential role in magnesium homeostasis. MAGT1 also acts as an accessory protein for STT3B, as catalytic subunits of the oligosaccharyltransferase protein complex, which carries out glycan chain transfer to proteins in the endoplasmic reticulum during N-glycosylation. Glycans play an essential role in the stability, maturation, and localization in glycoproteins that are important in our immune cells’ function. Mutation of the gene resulted in a rare X-linked recessive condition XMEN. The disease has complete penetrance but variable expressivity. It is mainly associated with immunodeficiency, immunodysregulation, and predisposition to EBV-associated lymphoproliferation. Extraimmune manifestations have also been reported in some patient cohorts, including hepatic and neurological abnormalities. Overall, the presentation varies among patients and overlaps with other clinical entities, in which diagnosis is challenging. Before the era of NGS, traditional workup hinges heavily on phenotype studies, followed by single-gene sequencing. The diagnostic yield is low, and a significant delay in diagnosis is common. This case illustrated the importance of early consideration of molecular studies in complex immunological cases without obvious secondary causes as an integral part of patient management.
