Autoimmune lymphoproliferative syndrome.
PURPOSE OF REVIEW The autoimmune lymphoproliferative syndrome is a recently identified human disorder of lymphocyte apoptosis that has provided important information about Fas-mediated lymphocyte apoptosis. In this review we summarize current information regarding the diagnosis, management and underlying molecular basis of the syndrome. RECENT FINDINGS The genetic basis of autoimmune lymphopr...

متن کاملAutoimmune Lymphoproliferative Syndrome Misdiagnosed as Hemophagocytic Lymphohistiocytosis A Case Report
Autoimmune lymphoproliferative Syndrome (ALPS) is a rare inherited disorder of apoptosis. It usually presents with chronic lymphadenopathy, splenomegaly, and symptomatic cytopenia in a child. Herein, we report a 14-year-old boy with symptoms misdiagnosed as hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis who was treated before ALPS was diagnosed for the patient. This case should alert pediatricians to consi...
متن کاملRapamycin improves lymphoproliferative disease in murine autoimmune lymphoproliferative syndrome (ALPS).
Autoimmune lymphoproliferative syndrome (ALPS) is a disorder of abnormal lymphocyte survival caused by defective Fas-mediated apoptosis, leading to lymphadenopathy, hepatosplenomegaly, and an increased number of double-negative T cells (DNTs). Treatment options for patients with ALPS are limited. Rapamycin has been shown to induce apoptosis in normal and malignant lymphocytes. Since ALPS is cau...
متن کاملClinical, Immunologic, and Genetic Features of an Autoimmune Lymphoproliferative Syndrome Associated With Abnormal Lymphocyte Apoptosis
Programmed cell death (apoptosis) of activated lymphoan unusual population of CD4CD8 T cells that express the a/b T-cell receptor (TCR). All patients showed defective lymcytes is critical to immune homeostasis. The cell surface protein Fas (CD95) and its ligand play a pivotal role in reguphocyte apoptosis in vitro. Heterozygous mutations of the Fas gene were detected in 8 patients. One ALPS pat...
