1. Biological functions of extracellular vesicles from mammalian cells

Author: Jean M. Kanellopoulos, Frédéric Rieux-Laucat, and David M. Ojcius
Subjects: Medicine (General), R5-920, Biology (General), QH301-705.5
Abstract: Extracellular vesicles (EVs) are enclosed by a phospholipid bilayer and can be secreted by most types of cells. EVs deliver cargo from the secreting cell into the cytoplasm of recipient cells, influencing the function of the recipient cells. EVs are attracting increasing attention from a broad range of clinicians and scientists due to their ability to promote or inhibit various physiological pathways or pathological conditions. This special issue of Biomedical Journal contains articles describing the biogenesis and biodistribution of EVs and their role in the intercellular transfer of various molecules or viruses to target cells, in rejecting allogeneic transplants and maintaining immune tolerance of the allogeneic fetus, and in modulating innate and adaptive immunity. Characterization of the role of EVs in various pathological conditions and our ability to engineer modified EVs may lead to discovery of novel biomarkers and development of therapeutic strategies for treatment of disease.

Abstract: Abstract Autoimmune lymphoproliferative syndrome (ALPS) is a primary disorder of lymphocyte homeostasis, leading to chronic lymphoproliferation, autoimmune cytopenia, and increased risk of lymphoma. The genetic landscape of ALPS includes mutations in FAS, FASLG, and FADD, all associated with apoptosis deficiency, while the role of CASP10 defect in the disease remains debated. In this study, we aimed to assess the impact of CASP10 variants on ALPS pathogenesis. We benefit from thousands of genetic analysis datasets performed in our Institute’s genetic platform to identify individuals carrying CASP10 variants previously suspected to be involved in ALPS outcome: p.C401LfsX15, p.V410I and p.Y446C, both at heterozygous and homozygous state. Clinical and laboratory features of the six included subjects were variable but not consistent with ALPS. Two individuals were healthy. Comprehensive analyses of CASP10 protein expression and FAS-mediated apoptosis were conducted and compared to healthy controls and ALPS patients with FAS mutations. Missense CASP10 variants (p.V410I and p.Y446C), which are common in the general population, did not disrupt CASP10 expression, nor FAS-mediated apoptosis. In contrast, homozygous p.C401LfsX15 CASP10 variant lead to a complete abolished CASP10 expression but had no impact on FAS-mediated apoptosis function. At heterozygous state, this p.C401LfsX15 variant lead to a reduced CASP10 protein levels but remained associated with a normal FAS-mediated apoptosis function. These findings demonstrate that CASPASE 10 is dispensable for FAS-mediated apoptosis. In consequences, CASP10 defect unlikely contribute to ALPS pathogenesis, since they did not result in an impairment of FAS-mediated apoptosis nor in clinical features of ALPS in human. Moreover, the absence of FAS expression up-regulation in subjects with CASP10 variants rule out any compensatory mechanisms possibly involved in the normal apoptosis function observed. In conclusion, this study challenges the notion that CASP10 variants contribute to the development of ALPS.

Abstract: Abstract Loss of NBEAL2 function leads to grey platelet syndrome (GPS), a bleeding disorder characterized by macro-thrombocytopenia and α-granule-deficient platelets. A proportion of patients with GPS develop autoimmunity through an unknown mechanism, which might be related to the proteins NBEAL2 interacts with, specifically in immune cells. Here we show a comprehensive interactome of NBEAL2 in primary T cells, based on mass spectrometry identification of altogether 74 protein association partners. These include LRBA, a member of the same BEACH domain family as NBEAL2, recessive mutations of which cause autoimmunity and lymphocytic infiltration through defective CTLA-4 trafficking. Investigating the potential association between NBEAL2 and CTLA-4 signalling suggested by the mass spectrometry results, we confirm by co-immunoprecipitation that CTLA-4 and NBEAL2 interact with each other. Interestingly, NBEAL2 deficiency leads to low CTLA-4 expression in patient-derived effector T cells, while their regulatory T cells appear unaffected. Knocking-down NBEAL2 in healthy primary T cells recapitulates the low CTLA-4 expression observed in the T cells of GPS patients. Our results thus show that NBEAL2 is involved in the regulation of CTLA-4 expression in conventional T cells and provide a rationale for considering CTLA-4-immunoglobulin therapy in patients with GPS and autoimmune disease.

Abstract: Summary: Oxylipins are major immunomodulating mediators, yet studies of inflammation focus mainly on cytokines. Here, using a standardized whole-blood stimulation system, we characterized the oxylipin-driven inflammatory responses to various stimuli and their relationships with cytokine responses. We performed a pilot study in 25 healthy individuals using 6 different stimuli: 2 bacterial stimuli (LPS and live BCG), 2 viral stimuli (vaccine-grade poly I:C and live H1N1 attenuated influenza), an enterotoxin superantigen and a Null control. All stimuli induced a strong production of oxylipins but most importantly, bacterial, viral, and T cell immune responses show distinct oxylipin signatures. Integration of the oxylipin and cytokine responses for each condition revealed new immune networks improving our understanding of inflammation regulation. Finally, the oxylipin responses and oxylipin-cytokine networks were compared in patients with active tuberculosis or with latent infection. This revealed different responses to BCG but not LPS stimulation highlighting new regulatory pathways for further investigations.

Abstract: We present the case of a female patient with a heterozygous somatic BLNK mutation, a T-cell LGL (large granular lymphocyte) leukemia, and multiple autoimmune diseases. Although this mutation seems uncommon especially in this kind of clinical observation, it could represent a new mechanism for autoimmune diseases associated with LGL leukemia. The patient developed several autoimmune diseases: pure red blood cell apalsia, thyroiditis, oophoritis, and alopecia areata. She also presented a T-cell LGL leukemia which required treatment with corticosteroids and cyclophosphamide, with good efficacy. Interestingly, she had no notable infectious history. The erythroblastopenia also resolved, the alopecia evolves by flare-ups, and the patient is still under hormonal supplementation for thyroiditis and oophoritis. We wanted to try to understand the unusual clinical picture presented by this patient. We therefore performed whole-genome sequencing, identifying a heterozygous somatic BLNK mutation. Her total gamma globulin level was slightly decreased. Regarding the lymphocyte subpopulations, she presented a B-cell deficiency with increased autoreactive B-cells and a CD4+ and Treg deficiency. This B-cell deficiency persisted after complete remission of erythroblastopenia and LGL leukemia. We propose that the persistent B-cell deficiency linked to the BLNK mutation can explain her clinical phenotype.

Subjects: Genetics, Immunology, Autoimmunity, FAS, Apoptosis, ALPS, Medicine (General), R5-920, Biology (General), QH301-705.5
Abstract: This special issue contains four review articles that describe advances in analysis of mutations responsible for the autoimmune lymphoproliferative syndrome (ALPS). This disease is triggered by a family of mutations in genes involved in the extrinsic apoptotic pathway such as FAS, FASL and CASP10. Advances in sequencing technology have enabled extended genetic testing of patients with various defects in alternative biological have pathways that can cause ALPS-like syndromes. Various gene mutations were identified which affect the CTLA-4 immune checkpoint, the STAT3 pathway and the RAS/MAPK pathway. Tips gleaned from analyses of the different gene mutations involved in ALPS and ALPS-like syndromes are contributing to a better understanding of their functional consequences. Genetic diagnoses of the disease should help us to identify specific therapeutic targets and design personalized treatment for each patient.

8. The genetic landscape of the FAS pathway deficiencies

Author: Aude Magerus, Clara Bercher-Brayer, and Frédéric Rieux-Laucat
Subjects: Autoimmune lymphoproliferative syndrome, Apoptosis, Autoimmunity, Genetics, Medicine (General), R5-920, Biology (General), QH301-705.5
Abstract: Dysfunction of the FAS-FASLG pathway causes a lymphoproliferative disorder with autoimmunity called Autoimmune lymphoproliferative syndrome (ALPS) mainly caused by FAS mutations. The goal of this review is to describe the genetic bases of the autoimmune lymphoproliferative syndrome and to underline their genetic complexity with the contribution of both germline and somatic events accounting for the variable clinical penetrance of the FAS mutations. Starting from the cohort of patients studied in the French cohort (>165 cases), we also reviewed the literature cases in order to depict a full description of the mutations affecting the FAS-FASLG pathway involved in the outcome of this rare non-malignant and non-infectious pediatric lymphoproliferative disease. We also discussed the variable clinical penetrance associated with mutations affecting the extracellular domain of the protein. Such non-penetrant germline mutations are frequently associated with an additional somatic event impacting the second allele of FAS. Moreover, the uncomplete clinical penetrance associated with mutations affecting the intracellular domain of FAS, in patient lacking additional FAS somatic event, suggested a potential digenic inheritance with a FAS mutation accompanied by a genetic modifier possibly impacting another player of the lymphocytes homeostasis (affecting the survival, activation or apoptosis of the peripheral leukocytes).

9. RASopathies: From germline mutations to somatic and multigenic diseases

Author: Quentin Riller and Frédéric Rieux-Laucat
Subjects: RAS, Somatic, Germline, Monocytes, Histiocytes, Lymphoproliferation, Medicine (General), R5-920, Biology (General), QH301-705.5
Abstract: The RAS-RAF-MEK-ERK signaling pathway is vital for different cellular mechanisms including cell proliferation, differentiation and apoptosis. This importance is highlighted by the high prevalence of mutations in RAS or related proteins of the pathway in cancers. More recently, development abnormalities have been linked to various germline mutations in this pathway and called RASopathies. Interestingly, rare disorders such as RAS-associated leukoproliferative diseases and histiocytosis have also been recently linked to multiple mutations in the same pathway, sometimes with the same mutation. This review will focus on germline RASopathies and rare somatic RASopathies and focus on how gain-of-function mutations in the same pathway can lead to various diseases.

Abstract: Abstract Background Microvascular, arterial and venous thrombotic events have been largely described during severe coronavirus disease 19 (COVID-19). However, mechanisms underlying hemostasis dysregulation remain unclear. Methods We explored two independent cross-sectional cohorts to identify soluble markers and gene-expression signatures that discriminated COVID-19 severity and outcomes. Results We found that elevated soluble (s)P-selectin at admission was associated with disease severity. Elevated sP-selectin was predictive of intubation and death (ROC AUC = 0.67, p = 0.028 and AUC = 0.74, p = 0.0047, respectively). An optimal cutoff value was predictive of intubation with 66% negative predictive value (NPV) and 61% positive predictive value (PPV), and of death with 90% NPV and 55% PPV. An unbiased gene set enrichment analysis revealed that critically ill patients had increased expression of genes related to platelet activation. Hierarchical clustering identified ITG2AB, GP1BB, PPBP and SELPLG to be upregulated in a grade-dependent manner. ROC curve analysis for the prediction of intubation was significant for SELPLG and PPBP (AUC = 0.8, p = 0.046 for both). An optimal cutoff value for PBPP was predictive of intubation with 100% NPV and 45% PPV, and for SELPLG with 100% NPV and 50% PPV. Conclusion We provide evidence that platelets contribute to COVID-19 severity. Plasma sP-selectin level was associated with severity and in-hospital mortality. Transcriptional analysis identified PPBP/CXCL7 and SELPLG as biomarkers for intubation. These findings provide additional evidence for platelet activation in driving critical COVID-19. Specific studies evaluating the performance of these biomarkers are required.

Abstract: Abstract The cholinergic system has been proposed as a potential regulator of COVID-19-induced hypercytokinemia. We investigated whole-blood expression of cholinergic system members and correlated it with COVID-19 severity. Patients with confirmed SARS-CoV-2 infection and healthy aged-matched controls were included in this non-interventional study. A whole blood sample was drawn between 9–11 days after symptoms onset, and peripheral leukocyte phenotyping, cytokines measurement, RNA expression and plasma viral load were determined. Additionally, whole-blood expression of native alpha-7 nicotinic subunit and its negative dominant duplicate (CHRFAM7A), choline acetyltransferase and acetylcholine esterase (AchE) were determined. Thirty-seven patients with COVID-19 (10 moderate, 11 severe and 16 with critical disease) and 14 controls were included. Expression of CHRFAM7A was significantly lower in critical COVID-19 patients compared to controls. COVID-19 patients not expressing CHRFAM7A had higher levels of CRP, more extended pulmonary lesions and displayed more pronounced lymphopenia. COVID-19 patients without CHRFAM7A expression also showed increased TNF pathway expression in whole blood. AchE was also expressed in 30 COVID-19 patients and in all controls. COVID-19-induced hypercytokinemia is associated with decreased expression of the pro-inflammatory dominant negative duplicate CHRFAM7A. Expression of this duplicate might be considered before targeting the cholinergic system in COVID-19 with nicotine.

14. NF-κB: At the Borders of Autoimmunity and Inflammation

Author: Laura Barnabei, Emmanuel Laplantine, William Mbongo, Frédéric Rieux-Laucat, and Robert Weil
Subjects: NF-κB, autoimmunity, autoinflammation, immune tolerance, ubiquitination, genetic diseases, Immunologic diseases. Allergy, RC581-607
Abstract: The transcription factor NF-κB regulates multiple aspects of innate and adaptive immune functions and serves as a pivotal mediator of inflammatory response. In the first part of this review, we discuss the NF-κB inducers, signaling pathways, and regulators involved in immune homeostasis as well as detail the importance of post-translational regulation by ubiquitination in NF-κB function. We also indicate the stages of central and peripheral tolerance where NF-κB plays a fundamental role. With respect to central tolerance, we detail how NF-κB regulates medullary thymic epithelial cell (mTEC) development, homeostasis, and function. Moreover, we elaborate on its role in the migration of double-positive (DP) thymocytes from the thymic cortex to the medulla. With respect to peripheral tolerance, we outline how NF-κB contributes to the inactivation and destruction of autoreactive T and B lymphocytes as well as the differentiation of CD4+-T cell subsets that are implicated in immune tolerance. In the latter half of the review, we describe the contribution of NF-κB to the pathogenesis of autoimmunity and autoinflammation. The recent discovery of mutations involving components of the pathway has both deepened our understanding of autoimmune disease and informed new therapeutic approaches to treat these illnesses.

Abstract: Pediatric-onset Evans syndrome (pES) is defined by both immune thrombocytopenic purpura (ITP) and autoimmune hemolytic anemia (AIHA) before the age of 18 years. There have been no comprehensive long-term studies of this rare disease, which can be associated to various immunopathological manifestations (IM). We report outcomes of the 151 patients with pES and more than 5 years of follow-up from the nationwide French prospective OBS’CEREVANCE cohort. Median age at final follow-up was 18.5 years (range, 6.8–50.0 years) and the median follow-up period was 11.3 years (range, 5.1–38.0 years). At 10 years, ITP and AIHA were in sustained complete remission in 54.5% and 78.4% of patients, respectively. The frequency and number of clinical and biological IM increased with age: at the age of 20 years, 74% had at least one clinical IM (cIM). A wide range of cIM occurred, mainly lymphoproliferation, dermatological, gastrointestinal/hepatic and pneumological IM. The number of cIM was associated with a subsequent increase in the number of second-line treatments received (other than steroids and immunoglobulins; hazard ratio 1.4, 95% Confidence Interval: 1.15–1.60, P=0.0002, Cox proportional hazards method). Survival at 15 years after diagnosis was 84%. Death occurred at a median age of 18 years (range, 1.7–31.5 years), and the most frequent cause was infection. The number of second-line treatments and severe/recurrent infections were independently associated with mortality. In conclusion, long-term outcomes of pES showed remission of cytopenias but frequent IM linked to high second-line treatment burden. Mortality was associated to drugs and/or underlying immunodeficiencies, and adolescents-young adults are a high-risk subgroup.

Subjects: Biology (General), QH301-705.5
Abstract: Mutation in STING1 gene, which encodes stimulator of type I IFN gene (STING) leads to its constitutive activation and thereby to a severe vasculopathy and sometimes a lupus-like disease. We generated induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) from a patient carrying a rare heterozygous variant c.463G > A (resulting in a p.V155M substitution) in STING1. Cells from this patient, which were reprogrammed by non-integrative viral transduction, had normal karyotype, expressed pluripotency markers and were able to differentiate into the three germ cell layers.

17. PD-L1 is expressed on human activated naive effector CD4+ T cells. Regulation by dendritic cells and regulatory CD4+ T cells

Author: Fabienne Mazerolles and Frédéric Rieux-Laucat
Subjects: Medicine, Science
Abstract: The T cell expression of various co-signalling receptors from the CD28 immunoglobulin superfamily (Inducible T cell co-stimulator (ICOS), Programmed cell death 1(PD-1), cytotoxic T lymphocyte associated protein 4 (CTLA-4), B and T lymphocyte attenuator (BTLA) or from the tumour necrosis factor receptor superfamily (glucocorticoid-induced TNFR family related (GITR), 4-1BB, and CD27), is essential for T cell responses regulation. Other receptors (such as T cell immunoglobulin and mucin domain-containing protein 3, T cell immunoglobulin and T cell immunoglobulin and ITIM domain (TIGIT), and lymphocyte activation gene 3) are also involved in this regulation. Disturbance of the balance between activating and inhibitory signals can induce autoimmunity. We have developed an in vitro assay to simultaneously assess the function of naive CD4+ effector T cells (TEFFs), dendritic cells (DCs) and regulatory T cells (TREGs) and the expression of co-signalling receptors. By running the assay on cells from healthy adult, we investigated the regulation of activated T cell proliferation and phenotypes. We observed that TEFFs activated by DCs mainly expressed BTLA, ICOS and PD-1, whereas activated TREGs mainly expressed TIGIT, ICOS, and CD27. Strikingly, we observed that programmed death-ligand 1 (PD-L1) was significantly expressed on both activated TEFFs and TREGs. Moreover, high PD-L1 expression on activated TEFFs was correlated with a higher index of proliferation. Lastly, and in parallel to the TREG-mediated suppression of TEFF proliferation, we observed the specific modulation of the surface expression of PD-L1 (but not other markers) on activated TEFFs. Our results suggest that the regulation of T cell proliferation is correlated with the specific expression of PD-L1 on activated TEFFs.

Abstract: Summary: STING gain-of-function causes autoimmunity and immunodeficiency in mice and STING-associated vasculopathy with onset in infancy (SAVI) in humans. Here, we report that STING gain-of-function in mice prevents development of lymph nodes and Peyer’s patches. We show that the absence of secondary lymphoid organs is associated with diminished numbers of innate lymphoid cells (ILCs), including lymphoid tissue inducer (LTi) cells. Although wild-type (WT) α4β7+ progenitors differentiate efficiently into LTi cells, STING gain-of-function progenitors do not. Furthermore, STING gain-of-function impairs development of all types of ILCs. Patients with STING gain-of-function mutations have fewer ILCs, although they still have lymph nodes. In mice, expression of the STING mutant in RORγT-positive lineages prevents development of lymph nodes and reduces numbers of LTi cells. RORγT lineage-specific expression of STING gain-of-function also causes lung disease. Since RORγT is expressed exclusively in LTi cells during fetal development, our findings suggest that STING gain-of-function prevents lymph node organogenesis by reducing LTi cell numbers in mice.

22. Fatal Hypogammaglobulinemia 3 Years after Rituximab in a Patient with Immune Thrombocytopenia: An Underlying Genetic Predisposition?

Author: Jean-François Viallard, Marie Parrens, and Frédéric Rieux-Laucat
Subjects: Immunologic diseases. Allergy, RC581-607
Abstract: We report the case of a young woman who developed, 3 years after stopping Rituximab (RTX) prescribed for immune thrombocytopenia (ITP), a severe immunodeficiency leading to fatal pulmonary Epstein–Barr virus-positive diffuse large B-cell lymphoma. Genetic analysis led us to identify four missense mutations known to affect immune-deficiency–associated genes (FAS-ligand (FASL) gene (p.G167R); perforin-1 (PRF1 (p.R55C) gene; the Bloom syndrome RecQ-Like helicase (BLM) gene and the Moesin (MSN) (p.A122T) gene). The heterozygous mutation in the FASL gene, not present in the Genome Aggregation Database or ClinVar database, could suggest atypical Autoimmune LymphoProliferative Syndrome and its role in this patient’s immunodepression is discussed. This observation strengthens the role of FASL gene mutation in severe clinical phenotypes of primary immune deficiency and raises new questions about the genetic background of ITP occurring in young people in a context of immunodeficiency.

Abstract: Gain-of-function mutations inSTING1, which encodes the Stimulator of Interferon Gene (STING), result in a severe autoinflammatory disease termed STING-associated vasculopathy with onset in infancy (SAVI). Although elevated type I interferon (IFN) production is thought to be the leading cause of the symptoms observed in patients, STING can induce a set of pathways, which roles in the onset and severity of SAVI, remain to be elucidated. To address this point, we compared a single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) dataset of peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) from SAVI patients to a dataset of healthy PBMCs treated with recombinant IFN-β. We revealed a loss of mucosal associated invariant T cells and CD56brightnatural killer cells in SAVI patients, not observed in IFN-β-treated PBMC. Patients’ T cells present markers of early activation, associated with markers of senescence and apoptosis. Inferring cell-to-cell communication from scRNA-seq predicted monocytes as potential drivers of this T cell phenotype. Furthermore, scRNA-seq clustering identified a patient-specific subset of monocytes, expressing a strong integrated stress response (ISR), and highCCL3,CCL4andIL-6. It also pinpointed to a patient with lower ISR, allowing us to identify a secondary mutation in PERK, recently shown to be activated by STING to trigger the ISR. Finally, based on the identification of this patient-specific subset of monocytes and the exploration of IFN-β stimulated PBMCs from healthy donors, we developed a strategy to propose a transcriptomic signature specific of STING activation and independent of type I IFN response. Altogether, these results provide a deeper understanding of SAVI at the cellular and molecular levels.

Abstract: Dedicator of cytokinesis (DOCK) proteins play a central role in actin cytoskeleton regulation. This is highlighted by the DOCK2 and DOCK8 deficiencies leading to actinopathies and immune deficiencies. DOCK8 and DOCK11 activate CDC42, a RHO-GTPase involved in actin cytoskeleton dynamics, among many cellular functions. The role of DOCK11 in human immune disease has been long suspected but has never been described so far. We studied eight male patients, from seven unrelated families, with hemizygous DOCK11 missense variants leading to reduced DOCK11 expression. The patients were presenting with early-onset autoimmunity, including cytopenia, systemic lupus erythematosus, skin, and digestive manifestations. Patients' platelets exhibited abnormal ultrastructural morphology and spreading as well as impaired CDC42 activity. In vitro activated T cells and B lymphoblastoid cell lines (B-LCL) of patients exhibited aberrant protrusions and abnormal migration speed in confined channels concomitant with altered actin polymerization during migration. A DOCK11 knock-down recapitulated these abnormal cellular phenotypes in monocytes-derived dendritic cells (MDDC) and primary activated T cells from healthy controls. Lastly, in line with the patients' autoimmune manifestations, we also observed abnormal regulatory T cells (Tregs) phenotype with profoundly reduced FOXP3 and IKZF2 expression. Moreover, we found a reduced T cell proliferation and an impaired STAT5B phosphorylation upon IL2 stimulation of the patients' lymphocytes. In conclusion, DOCK11 deficiency is a new X-linked immune-related actinopathy leading to impaired CDC42 activity and STAT5 activation, and associated with abnormal actin cytoskeleton remodeling as well as Tregs phenotype culminating in immune dysregulation and severe early-onset autoimmunity.

Abstract: There seems to be a possible link between nephrotic syndrome (NS) and lymphoproliferative syndrome, but it remains poorly understood.This multicentric and retrospective study focuses on children, who developed idiopathic NS and malignant or benign proliferation between 2000 and 2021.Eleven patients were included, with a median age of 4 years. Only one had a steroid-resistant nephrotic syndrome (SRNS). The maintenance therapy before the proliferation was in majority tacrolimus or mycophenolate mofetil (MMF), but three patients did not receive treatments. The proliferation was mainly a Hodgkin's lymphoma (45%) or a lymphoproliferative disease (36%), in a median time after the NS of two years. Viruses were found in seven cases (EBV in five cases and HHV-8 in two).The association between proliferative syndrome and idiopathic NS may not be fortuitous, possibly with a common lymphocytic disturbance. Genetic analyses could improve the comprehension of these manifestations in the future. A higher resolution version of the Graphical abstract is available as Supplementary information.

Abstract: International audience; The interleukin-12 (IL-12) family comprises the only heterodimeric cytokines mediating diverse functional effects. We previously reported a striking bimodal IL-12p70 response to lipopolysaccharide (LPS) stimulation in healthy donors. Herein, we demonstrate that interferon β (IFNβ) is a major upstream determinant of IL-12p70 production, which is also associated with numbers and activation of circulating monocytes. Integrative modeling of proteomic, genetic, epigenomic, and cellular data confirms IFNβ as key for LPS-induced IL-12p70 and allowed us to compare the relative effects of each of these parameters on variable cytokine responses. Clinical relevance of our findings is supported by reduced IFNβ-IL-12p70 responses in patients hospitalized with acute severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) infection or chronically infected with hepatitis C (HCV). Importantly, these responses are resolved after viral clearance. Our systems immunology approach defines a better understanding of IL-12p70 and IFNβ in healthy and infected persons, providing insights into how common genetic and epigenetic variation may impact immune responses to bacterial infection.

Abstract: Mutations in interleukin-10 receptor (IL-10R) genes are one cause of very early-onset inflammatory bowel disease with perianal lesions, which can be cured by hematopoietic stem cell transplantation. Using a functional test, which assesses responsiveness of peripheral monocytes to IL-10, we identified three unrelated Portuguese patients carrying two novel IL-10RB mutations. In the three patients, sequencing of genomic DNA identified the same large deletion of exon 3 which precluded protein expression. This mutation was homozygous in two patients born from consanguineous families and heterozygous in the third patient born from unrelated parents. Microsatellite analysis of the IL10RB genomic region revealed a common haplotype in the three Portuguese families pointing to a founder deletion inherited from a common ancestor 400 years ago. In the third patient, surface expression of IL-10R was normal but signaling in response to IL-10 was impaired. Complementary DNA sequencing and next-generation sequencing of IL10RB locus with custom-made probes revealed a ≈ 6 Kb duplication encompassing the exon 6 which leads to a frameshift mutation and a loss of the TYK2-interacting Box 2 motif. Altogether, we describe two novel copy number variations in IL10RB, one with founder effect and one preserving cell surface expression but abolishing signaling.

Abstract: International audience; BackgroundThe outbreak of chilblain-like lesions (CLL) during the COVID-19 pandemic has been reported extensively, potentially related to SARS-CoV-2 infection, yet its underlying pathophysiology is unclear.ObjectivesTo study skin and blood endothelial and immune system activation in CLL in comparison with healthy controls and seasonal chilblains (SC), defined as cold-induced sporadic chilblains occurring during 2015 and 2019 with exclusion of chilblain lupus.MethodsThis observational study was conducted during 9–16 April 2020 at Saint-Louis Hospital, Paris, France. All patients referred with CLL seen during this period of the COVID-19 pandemic were included in this study. We excluded patients with a history of chilblains or chilblain lupus. Fifty patients were included.ResultsHistological patterns were similar and transcriptomic signatures overlapped in both the CLL and SC groups, with type I interferon polarization and a cytotoxic–natural killer gene signature. CLL were characterized by higher IgA tissue deposition and more significant transcriptomic activation of complement and angiogenesis factors compared with SC. We observed in CLL a systemic immune response associated with IgA antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibodies in 73% of patients, and elevated type I interferon blood signature in comparison with healthy controls. Finally, using blood biomarkers related to endothelial dysfunction and activation, and to angiogenesis or endothelial progenitor cell mobilization, we confirmed endothelial dysfunction in CLL.ConclusionsOur findings support an activation loop in the skin in CLL associated with endothelial alteration and immune infiltration of cytotoxic and type I IFN-polarized cells leading to clinical manifestations.

Abstract: Hypogammaglobulinemia in a context of lymphoma is usually considered as secondary and prior lymphoma remains an exclusion criterion for a common variable immunodeficiency (CVID) diagnosis. We hypothesized that lymphoma could be the revealing symptom of an underlying primary immunodeficiency (PID), challenging the distinction between primary and secondary hypogammaglobulinemia.Within a French cohort of adult patients with hypogammaglobulinemia, patients who developed a lymphoma either during follow-up or before the diagnosis of hypogammaglobulinemia were identified. These two chronology groups were then compared. For patients without previous genetic diagnosis, a targeted next-generation sequencing of 300 PID-associated genes was performed.A total of forty-seven patients had developed 54 distinct lymphomas: non-Hodgkin B cell lymphoma (67%), Hodgkin lymphoma (26%), and T cell lymphoma (7%). In 25 patients, lymphoma developed prior to the diagnosis of hypogammaglobulinemia. In this group of patients, Hodgkin lymphoma was overrepresented compared to the group of patients in whom lymphoma occurred during follow-up (48% versus 9%), whereas MALT lymphoma was absent (0 versus 32%). Despite the histopathological differences, both groups presented with similar characteristics in terms of age at hypogammaglobulinemia diagnosis, consanguinity rate, or severe T cell defect. Overall, genetic analyses identified a molecular diagnosis in 10/47 patients (21%), distributed in both groups and without peculiar gene recurrence. Most of these patients presented with a late onset combined immunodeficiency (LOCID) phenotype.Prior or concomitant lymphoma should not be used as an exclusion criteria for CVID diagnosis, and these patients should be investigated accordingly.

Abstract: International audience; Primary Immunodeficiencies (PIDs) are associated with more than 400 rare monogenic diseases affecting various biological functions (e.g., development, regulation of the immune response) with a heterogeneous clinical expression (from no symptom to severe manifestations). To better understand PIDs, the ATRACTion project aims to perform a multi-omics analysis of PIDs cases versus a control group patients, including single-cell transcriptomics, epigenetics, proteomics, metabolomics, metagenomics and lipidomics. In this study, our goal is to develop a common data model integrating clinical and omics data, which can be used to obtain standardized information necessary for characterization of PIDs patients and for further systematic analysis. For that purpose, we extend the OMOP Common Data Model (CDM) and propose a multi-omics ATRACTion OMOP-CDM to integrate multi-omics data. This model, available for the community, is customizable for other types of rare diseases (https://framagit.org/imagine-plateforme-bdd/pub-rhu4-atraction).

Abstract: IKZF1/IKAROS is a key transcription factor of lymphocyte development expressed throughout hematopoiesis. Heterozygous germline IKZF1 haploinsufficient ( IKZF1 HI ) and dominant-negative ( IKZF1 DN ) variants in humans cause B cell immune deficiency and combined immunodeficiency. Here, we identified previously unidentified heterozygous IKZF1 variants (R183C/H) located in the DNA binding domain in eight individuals with inflammatory, autoimmune, allergic symptoms, and abnormal plasma cell (PC) proliferation. Leukocytes of patients exhibited specific defects including impaired IL-2 production by T cells, T helper (T H ) skewing toward T H 2, low numbers of regulatory T cells (T reg ), eosinophilia, and abnormal PC proliferation. In contrast to IKZF1 HI and IKZF1 DN , IKZF1 R183H/C proteins showed increased DNA binding associated with increased gene expression of T H 2 and PC differentiation, thus demonstrating that IKZF1 R183H/C behave as gain-of-function (GOF) alleles. In vitro treatment with lenalidomide, known to degrade IKZF1, corrected T H 2 and PC abnormalities caused by IKZF1 R183H/C . These data extend the spectrum of pathological mechanisms associated with IKZF1 deficiencies and highlight the role of IKZF1 in late lymphoid differentiation stages.

Abstract: Monogenic primary immunodeficiency syndromes can affect one or more endocrine organs by autoimmunity during childhood. Clinical manifestations include type1 diabetes mellitus, hypothyroidism, adrenal insufficiency and vitiligo. LPS-responsive beige-like anchor protein (LRBA) deficiency was described in 2012 as a novel primary immunodeficiency, predominantly causing immune dysregulation and early onset enteropathy. We describe the heterogeneous clinical course of LRBA deficiency in two siblings, mimicking an autoimmune polyendocrine disorder in one of them in presence of the same underlying genetic mutation. The third child of consanguineous Egyptian parents (Patient 1) presented at six months of age with intractable enteropathy and failure to thrive. Later on he developed symptoms of adrenal insufficiency, autoimmune haemolytic anaemia, thrombocytopenia, and infectious complications due to immunosuppressive treatment. The severe enteropathy was non-responsive to the standard treatment and led to death at the age of 22 years. His younger sister (Patient 2) presented at the age of 12 to the endocrinology department with decompensated hypothyroidism, perioral vitiligo, delayed pubertal development, and growth failure without enteropathy and immunodeficiency.Using whole-exome sequencing (WES) we identified a homozygous frameshift mutation (c.6862delT, p.Y2288MfsX29) in the LRBA gene in both siblings. To our knowledge our patient (patient 2) is the first case of LRBA deficiency described with predominant endocrine phenotype without immunodeficiency and enteropathy. LRBA deficiency should be considered as underlying disease in pediatric patients presenting with autoimmune endocrine symptoms. The same genetic mutation can manifest with a broad phenotypic spectrum without genotype-phenotype correlation. The awareness for disease symptoms among non-immunologists might be a key to early diagnosis. Further functional studies in LRBA deficiency are necessary to provide detailed information on the origin of autoimmunity in order to develop reliable predictive biomarkers for affected patients.

Abstract: Molecular dissection of inborn errors of immunity can help to elucidate the nonredundant functions of individual genes. We studied 3 children with an immune dysregulation syndrome of susceptibility to infection, lymphadenopathy, hepatosplenomegaly, developmental delay, autoimmunity, and lymphoma of B-cell (n = 2) or T-cell (n = 1) origin. All 3 showed early autologous T-cell reconstitution following allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation. By whole-exome sequencing, we identified rare homozygous germline missense or nonsense variants in a known epigenetic regulator of gene expression: ten-eleven translocation methylcytosine dioxygenase 2 (TET2). Mutated TET2 protein was absent or enzymatically defective for 5-hydroxymethylating activity, resulting in whole-blood DNA hypermethylation. Circulating T cells showed an abnormal immunophenotype including expanded double-negative, but depleted follicular helper, T-cell compartments and impaired Fas-dependent apoptosis in 2 of 3 patients. Moreover, TET2-deficient B cells showed defective class-switch recombination. The hematopoietic potential of patient-derived induced pluripotent stem cells was skewed toward the myeloid lineage. These are the first reported cases of autosomal-recessive germline TET2 deficiency in humans, causing clinically significant immunodeficiency and an autoimmune lymphoproliferative syndrome with marked predisposition to lymphoma. This disease phenotype demonstrates the broad role of TET2 within the human immune system.

Abstract: International audience; Background: Severe coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) is characterized by impaired type I interferon activity and a state of hyperinflammation leading to acute respiratory distress syndrome. The complement system has recently emerged as a key player in triggering and maintaining the inflammatory state, but the role of this molecular cascade in severe COVID-19 is still poorly characterized.Objective: We aimed at assessing the contribution of complement pathways at both the protein and transcriptomic levels.Methods: To this end, we systematically assessed the RNA levels of 28 complement genes in the circulating whole blood of patients with COVID-19 and healthy controls, including genes of the alternative pathway, for which data remain scarce.Results: We found differential expression of genes involved in the complement system, yet with various expression patterns: whereas patients displaying moderate disease had elevated expression of classical pathway genes, severe disease was associated with increased lectin and alternative pathway activation, which correlated with inflammation and coagulopathy markers. Additionally, properdin, a pivotal positive regulator of the alternative pathway, showed high RNA expression but was found at low protein concentrations in patients with a severe and critical disease, suggesting its deposition at the sites of complement activation. Notably, low properdin levels were significantly associated with the use of mechanical ventilation (area under the curve = 0.82; P = .002).Conclusion: This study sheds light on the role of the alternative pathway in severe COVID-19 and provides additional rationale for the testing of drugs inhibiting the alternative pathway of the complement system.

Abstract: Background Microvascular, arterial and venous thrombotic events have been largely described during severe coronavirus disease 19 (COVID-19). However, mechanisms underlying hemostasis dysregulation remain unclear. Methods We explored two independent cross-sectional cohorts to identify soluble markers and gene-expression signatures that discriminated COVID-19 severity and outcomes. Results We found that elevated soluble (s)P-selectin at admission was associated with disease severity. Elevated sP-selectin was predictive of intubation and death (ROC AUC = 0.67, p = 0.028 and AUC = 0.74, p = 0.0047, respectively). An optimal cutoff value was predictive of intubation with 66% negative predictive value (NPV) and 61% positive predictive value (PPV), and of death with 90% NPV and 55% PPV. An unbiased gene set enrichment analysis revealed that critically ill patients had increased expression of genes related to platelet activation. Hierarchical clustering identified ITG2AB, GP1BB, PPBP and SELPLG to be upregulated in a grade-dependent manner. ROC curve analysis for the prediction of intubation was significant for SELPLG and PPBP (AUC = 0.8, p = 0.046 for both). An optimal cutoff value for PBPP was predictive of intubation with 100% NPV and 45% PPV, and for SELPLG with 100% NPV and 50% PPV. Conclusion We provide evidence that platelets contribute to COVID-19 severity. Plasma sP-selectin level was associated with severity and in-hospital mortality. Transcriptional analysis identified PPBP/CXCL7 and SELPLG as biomarkers for intubation. These findings provide additional evidence for platelet activation in driving critical COVID-19. Specific studies evaluating the performance of these biomarkers are required.

Abstract: Background Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) infection in children is generally milder than in adults, but a proportion of cases result in hyperinflammatory conditions often including myocarditis. Methods To better understand these cases, we applied a multiparametric approach to the study of blood cells of 56 children hospitalized with suspicion of SARS-CoV-2 infection. Plasma cytokine and chemokine levels and blood cellular composition were measured, alongside gene expression at the bulk and single-cell levels. Findings The most severe forms of multisystem inflammatory syndrome in children (MIS-C) related to SARS-CoV-2 that resulted in myocarditis were characterized by elevated levels of pro-angiogenesis cytokines and several chemokines. Single-cell transcriptomics analyses identified a unique monocyte/dendritic cell gene signature that correlated with the occurrence of severe myocarditis characterized by sustained nuclear factor κB (NF-κB) activity and tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-α) signaling and associated with decreased gene expression of NF-κB inhibitors. We also found a weak response to type I and type II interferons, hyperinflammation, and response to oxidative stress related to increased HIF-1α and Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) signaling. Conclusions These results provide potential for a better understanding of disease pathophysiology.

However, several weeks into the first wave of SARS-CoV-2 infections, there was a surge of a postacute pathology called multisystem inflammatory syndrome in children (MIS-C). The authors recruited a cohort of children with suspicion of SARS-CoV-2 infection and uncovered hyperinflammation, hypoxic conditions, exacerbation of TNF-α signaling via NF-κB, and absence of responses to type I and type II IFN secretion in the most severe forms of MIS-C with severe myocarditis. This work led the authors to identify in monocytes and validate in peripheral blood mononuclear cells a molecular signature of 25 genes that allows discrimination of the most severe forms of MIS-C with myocarditis., Multiparametric analysis identifies, in monocytes and dendritic cells, a molecular signature of the most severe forms of multisystem inflammatory syndrome in children caused by SARS-CoV-2 infection. Severe myocarditis is characterized by an excess of TNF-α signaling via NF-κB, hypoxic conditions, and hyperinflammation in the absence of type I and type II interferon responses.

Abstract: BackgroundThe emergence of strains of SARS-CoV-2 exhibiting increase viral fitness and immune escape potential, such as the Delta variant (B.1.617.2), raises concerns in immunocompromised patients. To what extent Delta evades vaccine-induced immunity in immunocompromised individuals with systemic inflammatory diseases remains unclear.MethodsWe conducted a prospective study in patients with systemic inflammatory diseases (cases) and controls receiving two doses of BNT162b2. Primary end points were anti-spike antibodies levels and cross-neutralization of Alpha and Delta variants after BNT162b2 vaccine. Secondary end points were T-cell responses, breakthrough infections and safety.ResultsSixty-four cases and 21 controls not previously infected with SARS-CoV-2 were analyzed. Kinetics of anti-spike IgG and IgA after BNT162b2 vaccine showed lower and delayed induction in cases, more pronounced with rituximab. Administration of two doses of BNT162b2 generated a neutralizing response against Alpha and Delta in 100% of controls, while sera from only one of rituximab-treated patients neutralized Alpha (5%) and none Delta. Other therapeutic regimens induced a partial neutralizing activity against Alpha, even lower against Delta. All controls and cases except those treated with methotrexate mounted a SARS-CoV-2 specific T-cell response. Methotrexate abrogated T-cell responses after one dose and dramatically impaired T-cell responses after 2 doses of BNT162b2.ConclusionsRituximab and methotrexate differentially impact the immunogenicity of BNT162b2, by impairing B-cell and T-cell responses, respectively. Delta fully escapes the humoral response of individuals treated with rituximab. These findings support efforts to improve BNT162b2 immunogenicity in immunocompromised individuals (Funded by the Fonds IMMUNOV;ClinicalTrials.govnumber,NCT04870411).

Abstract: The T cell expression of various co-signalling receptors from the CD28 immunoglobulin superfamily (Inducible T cell co-stimulator (ICOS), Programmed cell death 1(PD-1), cytotoxic T lymphocyte associated protein 4 (CTLA-4), B and T lymphocyte attenuator (BTLA) or from the tumour necrosis factor receptor superfamily (glucocorticoid-induced TNFR family related (GITR), 4-1BB, and CD27), is essential for T cell responses regulation. Other receptors (such as T cell immunoglobulin and mucin domain-containing protein 3, T cell immunoglobulin and T cell immunoglobulin and ITIM domain (TIGIT), and lymphocyte activation gene 3) are also involved in this regulation. Disturbance of the balance between activating and inhibitory signals can induce autoimmunity. We have developed an in vitro assay to simultaneously assess the function of naive CD4+ effector T cells (TEFFs), dendritic cells (DCs) and regulatory T cells (TREGs) and the expression of co-signalling receptors. By running the assay on cells from healthy adult, we investigated the regulation of activated T cell proliferation and phenotypes. We observed that TEFFs activated by DCs mainly expressed BTLA, ICOS and PD-1, whereas activated TREGs mainly expressed TIGIT, ICOS, and CD27. Strikingly, we observed that programmed death-ligand 1 (PD-L1) was significantly expressed on both activated TEFFs and TREGs. Moreover, high PD-L1 expression on activated TEFFs was correlated with a higher index of proliferation. Lastly, and in parallel to the TREG-mediated suppression of TEFF proliferation, we observed the specific modulation of the surface expression of PD-L1 (but not other markers) on activated TEFFs. Our results suggest that the regulation of T cell proliferation is correlated with the specific expression of PD-L1 on activated TEFFs.

Abstract: International audience; The cholinergic system has been proposed as a potential regulator of COVID-19-induced hypercytokinemia. We investigated whole-blood expression of cholinergic system members and correlated it with COVID-19 severity. Patients with confirmed SARS-CoV-2 infection and healthy aged-matched controls were included in this non-interventional study. A whole blood sample was drawn between 9-11 days after symptoms onset, and peripheral leukocyte phenotyping, cytokines measurement, RNA expression and plasma viral load were determined. Additionally, whole-blood expression of native alpha-7 nicotinic subunit and its negative dominant duplicate (CHRFAM7A), choline acetyltransferase and acetylcholine esterase (AchE) were determined. Thirty-seven patients with COVID-19 (10 moderate, 11 severe and 16 with critical disease) and 14 controls were included. Expression of CHRFAM7A was significantly lower in critical COVID-19 patients compared to controls. COVID-19 patients not expressing CHRFAM7A had higher levels of CRP, more extended pulmonary lesions and displayed more pronounced lymphopenia. COVID-19 patients without CHRFAM7A expression also showed increased TNF pathway expression in whole blood. AchE was also expressed in 30 COVID-19 patients and in all controls. COVID-19-induced hypercytokinemia is associated with decreased expression of the pro-inflammatory dominant negative duplicate CHRFAM7A. Expression of this duplicate might be considered before targeting the cholinergic system in COVID-19 with nicotine. Coronavirus disease 19 (COVID-19) is characterized by clinical heterogeneity, with severity ranging from asymptomatic patients to critical and life-threatening disease 1. Severe and critical COVID-19 are characterized by an acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) driven by an exacerbated inflammatory response that can lead to multi-organ failure and death 2. This hypercytokinemia, initially named "cytokine storm", is associated with high levels of circulating tumor necrosis factor (TNF) and interleukin-6 (IL-6), profound peripheral blood lymphopenia and chemoattraction of mononuclear cells within the lungs 3-5. Overall, this imbalanced inflammatory response is responsible for tissue damage and disease severity.

Abstract: Evans syndrome (ES) is a rare severe autoimmune disorder characterized by the combination of autoimmune hemolytic anemia and immune thrombocytopenia. In most cases, the underlying cause is unknown. We sought to identify genetic defects in pediatric ES (pES), based on a hypothesis of strong genetic determinism. In a national, prospective cohort of 203 patients with early-onset ES (median [range] age at last follow-up: 16.3 years ([1.2-41.0 years]) initiated in 2004, 80 nonselected consecutive individuals underwent genetic testing. The clinical data were analyzed as a function of the genetic findings. Fifty-two patients (65%) received a genetic diagnosis (the M+ group): 49 carried germline mutations and 3 carried somatic variants. Thirty-two (40%) had pathogenic mutations in 1 of 9 genes known to be involved in primary immunodeficiencies (TNFRSF6, CTLA4, STAT3, PIK3CD, CBL, ADAR1, LRBA, RAG1, and KRAS), whereas 20 patients (25%) carried probable pathogenic variants in 16 genes that had not previously been reported in the context of autoimmune disease. Lastly, no genetic abnormalities were found in the remaining 28 patients (35%, the M− group). The M+ group displayed more severe disease than the M− group, with a greater frequency of additional immunopathologic manifestations and a greater median number of lines of treatment. Six patients (all from the M+ group) died during the study. In conclusion, pES was potentially genetically determined in at least 65% of cases. Systematic, wide-ranging genetic screening should be offered in pES; the genetic findings have prognostic significance and may guide the choice of a targeted treatment.

49. Monitoring Disease Activity in Systemic Lupus Erythematosus With Single‐Molecule Array Digital Enzyme‐Linked Immunosorbent Assay Quantification of Serum Interferon‐α

Abstract: No simple or standardized assay is available to quantify interferon-α (IFNα) in routine clinical practice. Single-molecule array (Simoa) digital enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) technology enables direct IFNα quantification at attomolar (femtogram per milliliter [fg/ml]) concentrations. This study was undertaken to assess IFNα digital ELISA diagnostic performances to monitor systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) activity.IFNα concentrations in serum samples from 150 consecutive SLE patients in a cross-sectional study were determined with digital ELISA and a functional biologic activity assay (bioassay). According to their Safety of Estrogens in Lupus Erythematosus National Assessment version of the Systemic Lupus Erythematosus Disease Activity Index (SLEDAI) flare composite scores, patients were divided into groups with inactive SLE (SLEDAI score of4 or clinical SLEDAI score of 0) or active SLE (SLEDAI score of ≥4 or clinical SLEDAI score of0), and into groups with no flare or mild/moderate flare or severe flare.Based on serum samples from healthy blood donors, the abnormal serum IFNα level threshold value was 136 fg/ml. Next, using receiver operating characteristic curves for an SLE patient series that was widely heterogeneous in terms of disease activity and organ involvement, the threshold IFNα value associated with active disease was determined to be 266 fg/ml. The digital ELISA-assessed serum IFNα level was a better biomarker of disease activity than the Farr assay because its specificity, likelihood ratio for positive results, and positive predictive value better discerned active SLE or flare from inactive disease. The digital ELISA was more sensitive than the bioassay for detecting low-abnormal serum IFNα concentrations and identifying patients with low disease activity.Direct serum IFNα determination with a highly sensitive assay might improve monitoring of clinical SLE activity and selection of the best candidates for anti-IFNα treatment.

Abstract: This article describes the ocular phenotype associated with the identified Casitas B-lineage lymphoma (CBL) gene mutation and reviews the current literature. This work also includes the longitudinal follow-up of five unrelated cases of unexplained fundus lesions with visual loss associated with a history of hepatosplenomegaly. Wide repeated workup was made to rule out infections, inflammatory diseases, and lysosomal diseases. No variants in genes associated with retinitis pigmentosa, cone–rod dystrophy, and inherited optic neuropathy were found. Molecular analysis was made using next-generation sequencing (NGS) and whole-exome sequencing (WES). The results included two cases sharing ophthalmological signs including chronic macular edema, vascular leakage, visual field narrowing, and electroretinography alteration. Two other cases showed damage to the optic nerve head and a fifth young patient exhibited bilateral complicated vitreoretinal traction and carried a heterozygous mutation in the CBL gene associated with a mutation in the IKAROS gene. Ruxolitinib as a treatment for RASopathy did not improve eye conditions, whereas systemic lesions were resolved in one patient. Mutations in the CBL gene were found in all five cases. In conclusion, a detailed description may pave the way for the CBL mutation ocular phenotype. Genetic analysis using whole-exome sequencing could be useful in the diagnosis of unusual clinical features.
