X linked lymphoproliferative disease in a United Kingdom family.
X linked lymphoproliferative disease (XLP; Duncan's disease) is a rare disorder affecting boys and characterised by a defective immune response to Epstein-Barr virus caused by a mutation in a gene located at chromosome Xq25. Three siblings with XLP in a single UK family are reported and the variation in phenotypic expression of the disease in these siblings described. One of the siblings with l...
متن کاملX-Linked Lymphoproliferative Disease
2B4 is a surface molecule involved in activation of the natural killer (NK) cell-mediated cytotoxicity. It binds a protein termed Src homology 2 domain-containing protein (SH2D1A) or signaling lymphocyte activation molecule (SLAM)-associated protein (SAP), which in turn has been proposed to function as a regulator of the 2B4-associated signal transduction pathway. In this study, we analyzed pat...
متن کاملA New Mutation Causing Severe Infantile-Onset Pompe Disease Responsive to Enzyme Replacement Therapy
Pompe disease (PD), also known as “glycogen storage disease type II (OMIM # 232300)” is a rare autosomal recessive disorder characterized by progressive glycogen accumulation in cellular lysosomes. It ultimately leads to cellular damage. Infantile-onset Pompe disease (IOPD) is the most severe type of this disease and is characterized by severe hypertrophic cardiomyopathy and generalized hypoton...
متن کاملLymphocytic vasculitis in X-linked lymphoproliferative disease.
Systemic vasculitis is an uncommon manifestation of X-linked lymphoproliferative disease (XLP), a disorder in which there is a selective immune deficiency to Epstein-Barr virus (EBV). The molecular basis for XLP has recently been ascribed to mutations within SLAM-associated protein (SAP), an SH2 domain-containing protein expressed primarily in T cells. The authors describe a patient who died as...
متن کاملDKC1 mutation causing different phenotypes in a family with X-linked Hoyeraal-Hreidarsson syndrome
Background Hoyeraal–Hreidarsson syndrome (HHS) is a rare multisystem disorder characterized by intrauterine growth retardation, microcephaly, cerebellar hypoplasia, neurological deficits, aplastic anemia, and immunodeficiency. HHS is a severe variant of Dyskeratosis Congenita (DC) that displays clinical features overlapping DC, with T, B and NK immunodeficiency. Both genetic disorders presents ...
