A novel mutation in CYBB induced X-linked chronic granulomatous disease: A case report.

ABSTRACT: Chronic granulomatous disease (CGD) is caused by gene mutations that affect the phagocyte NADPH oxidase. This results in recurrent infections by catalase-positive bacteria or fungi. Here, we report a case of X-linked CGD presenting a mixed infection with Burkholderia cepacia and Aspergillus. A novel mutation was found by bioinformatics analyses of his genealogy (c.1234delG), which perhaps changed the structure and function of the related proteins.

Preimplantation genetic testing for X-linked chronic granulomatous disease induced by a CYBB gene variant: A case report.

Project description:IntroductionX-linked recessive chronic granulomatous disease (XR-CGD) is a severe primary immunodeficiency principally caused by a CYBB (OMIM: 300481) gene variant. Recurrent fatal bacterial or fungal infections are the main clinical manifestations of XR-CGD.Patient concernsIn the current case, in vitro fertilization (IVF) associated with preimplantation genetic testing for monogenic disorder (PGT-M) was applied for a Chinese couple who had given birth to a boy with XR-CGD.DiagnosisNext-generation sequencing-based SNP haplotyping and Sanger-sequencing were used to detect the CYBB gene variant (c.804 + 2T>C, splicing) in this family.InterventionsThe patient was treated with IVF and PGT-M successively.OutcomesIn this IVF cycle, 7 embryos were obtained, and 2 of them were euploid and lacked the CYBB gene variant (c.804 + 2T>C). The PGT results were verified by prenatal diagnosis after successful pregnancy, and a healthy girl was eventually born.ConclusionPGT-M is an effective method for helping families with these fatal and rare inherited diseases to have healthy offspring. It can availably block the transmission of disease-causing loci to descendant.

Novel mutations in CYBB Gene Cause X-linked chronic Granulomatous Disease in Pakistani patients.

Project description:BackgroundChronic Granulomatous Disease (CGD) is a primary immunodeficiency that causes susceptibility to recurrent fungal and bacterial infections. The CYBB gene encodes gp91phox component of the Phagocytic Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NADPH) oxidase and specifically, X-linked CGD is caused by mutations in the CYBB gene, located on the X chromosome. The aim of the study was to characterize functional and genetic mutations in X-linked CGD.MethodsFunctional analysis was conducted on the whole blood of seventeen male individuals who were suspected to have X-linked chronic granulomatous disease (CGD). Flow cytometry was employed to assess the capacity of NADPH oxidase, measuring both H2O2 production and gp91phox protein expression in neutrophils. Additionally, DNA Sanger sequencing was performed for genetic analysis. The pathogenicity of novel mutations was assessed by pathogenicity prediction tools.ResultAmong the seventeen patients evaluated, five patients (P1, P2, P3, P4, and P5) displayed impaired H2O2 production by their neutrophils upon stimulation with Phorbol myristate acetate (PMA), accompanied by abnormal gp91phox expression. DNA sequencing of the CYBB gene identified specific mutations in each patient. In P1 and P2 (previously reported cases), a hemizygous missense mutation, c.925G > A/p.E309K was identified. In P3 and P4 (novel cases), hemizygous nonsense mutations, c.216T > A/p.C72X were found. Lastly, in P5 (also a novel case), a hemizygous missense mutation, c.732T > G/p.C244W was detected. These mutations reside in exons 9,3 and 7 of the CYBB gene, respectively.ConclusionsThe current study contributes to the understanding of the clinical and genetic spectrum associated with X-linked chronic granulomatous disease (CGD). It highlights the significance of early diagnosis in CGD and emphasizes the importance of lifelong prophylaxis to prevent severe infections.

Lentiviral gene therapy for X-linked chronic granulomatous disease recapitulates endogenous CYBB regulation and expression.

Project description:X-linked chronic granulomatous disease (X-CGD) is a primary immunodeficiency caused by mutations in the CYBB gene, resulting in the inability of phagocytic cells to eliminate infections. To design a lentiviral vector (LV) capable of recapitulating the endogenous regulation and expression of CYBB, a bioinformatics-guided approach was used to elucidate the cognate enhancer elements regulating the native CYBB gene. Using this approach, we analyzed a 600-kilobase topologically associated domain of the CYBB gene and identified endogenous enhancer elements to supplement the CYBB promoter to develop MyeloVec, a physiologically regulated LV for the treatment of X-CGD. When compared with an LV currently in clinical trials for X-CGD, MyeloVec showed improved expression, superior gene transfer to hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells (HSPCs), corrected an X-CGD mouse model leading to complete protection against Burkholderia cepacia infection, and restored healthy donor levels of antimicrobial oxidase activity in neutrophils derived from HSPCs from patients with X-CGD. Our findings validate the bioinformatics-guided design approach and have yielded a novel LV with clinical promise for the treatment of X-CGD.

X-Linked chronic granulomatous disease: mutations in the CYBB gene encoding the gp91-phox component of respiratory-burst oxidase.

Project description:Chronic granulomatous disease (CGD) is a hereditary disorder of host defense due to absent or decreased activity of phagocyte NADPH oxidase. The X-linked form of the disease derives from defects in the CYBB gene, which encodes the 91-kD glycoprotein component (termed "gp91-phox") of the oxidase. We have identified the mutations in the CYBB gene responsible for X-linked CGD in 131 consecutive independent kindreds. Screening by SSCP analysis identified mutations in 124 of the kindreds, and sequencing of all exons and intron boundary regions revealed the other seven mutations. We detected 103 different specific mutations; no single mutation appeared in more than seven independent kindreds. The types of mutations included large and small deletions (11%), frameshifts (24%), nonsense mutations (23%), missense mutations (23%), splice-region mutations (17%), and regulatory-region mutations (2%). The distribution of mutations within the CYBB gene exhibited great heterogeneity, with no apparent mutational hot spots. Evaluation of 87 available mothers revealed X-linked carrier status in all but 10. The heterogeneity of mutations and the lack of any predominant genotype indicate that the disease represents many different mutational events, without a founder effect, as is expected for a disorder with a previously lethal phenotype.

Case report: HLA-haploidentical HSCT rescued with donor lymphocytes infusions in a patient with X-linked chronic granulomatous disease.

Project description:Chronic granulomatous disease is an inborn error of immunity due to disrupted function of the nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NADPH) oxidase complex. This results in impaired respiratory burst of phagocytes and insufficient killing of bacteria and fungi. Patients with chronic granulomatous disease are at increased risk for infections, autoinflammation and autoimmunity. Allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) is the only widely available curative therapy. While HSCT from human leukocyte antigen (HLA) matched siblings or unrelated donors are standard of care, transplantation from HLA-haploidentical donors or gene therapy are considered alternative options. We describe a 14-month-old male with X-linked chronic granulomatous disease who underwent a paternal HLA-haploidentical HSCT using T-cell receptor (TCR) alpha/beta+/CD19+ depleted peripheral blood stem cells followed by mycophenolate graft versus host disease prophylaxis. Decreasing donor fraction of CD3+ T cells was overcome by repeated infusions of donor lymphocytes from the paternal HLA-haploidentical donor. The patient achieved normalized respiratory burst and full donor chimerism. He remained disease-free off any antibiotic prophylaxis for more than three years after HLA-haploidentical HSCT. In patients with x-linked chronic granulomatous disease without a matched donor paternal HLA-haploidentical HSCT is a treatment option worth to consider. Administration of donor lymphocytes can prevent imminent graft failure.

Lentiviral gene therapy for X-linked chronic granulomatous disease.

Project description:Chronic granulomatous disease (CGD) is a rare inherited disorder of phagocytic cells1,2. We report the initial results of nine severely affected X-linked CGD (X-CGD) patients who received ex vivo autologous CD34+ hematopoietic stem and progenitor cell-based lentiviral gene therapy following myeloablative conditioning in first-in-human studies (trial registry nos. NCT02234934 and NCT01855685). The primary objectives were to assess the safety and evaluate the efficacy and stability of biochemical and functional reconstitution in the progeny of engrafted cells at 12 months. The secondary objectives included the evaluation of augmented immunity against bacterial and fungal infection, as well as assessment of hematopoietic stem cell transduction and engraftment. Two enrolled patients died within 3 months of treatment from pre-existing comorbidities. At 12 months, six of the seven surviving patients demonstrated stable vector copy numbers (0.4-1.8 copies per neutrophil) and the persistence of 16-46% oxidase-positive neutrophils. There was no molecular evidence of either clonal dysregulation or transgene silencing. Surviving patients have had no new CGD-related infections, and six have been able to discontinue CGD-related antibiotic prophylaxis. The primary objective was met in six of the nine patients at 12 months follow-up, suggesting that autologous gene therapy is a promising approach for CGD patients.

Hematologically important mutations: X-linked chronic granulomatous disease (third update).

Project description:Chronic granulomatous disease (CGD) is an immunodeficiency disorder affecting about 1 in 250,000 individuals. The disease is caused by a lack of superoxide production by the leukocyte enzyme NADPH oxidase. Superoxide is used to kill phagocytosed micro-organisms in neutrophils, eosinophils, monocytes and macrophages. The leukocyte NADPH oxidase is composed of five subunits, of which the enzymatic component is gp91-phox, also called Nox2. This protein is encoded by the CYBB gene on the X chromosome. Mutations in this gene are found in about 70% of all CGD patients. This article lists all mutations identified in CYBB in the X-linked form of CGD. Moreover, apparently benign polymorphisms in CYBB are also given, which should facilitate the recognition of future disease-causing mutations.

Case Report: BCG-Triggered Hemophagocytic Lymphohistiocytosis in an Infant With X-Linked Recessive Mendelian Susceptibility to Mycobacterial Disease Due to a Variant of Chronic Granulomatous Disease.

Project description:In the United Arab Emirates, BCG (Bacillus Calmette-Guérin) is administered to all newborns. We present here a young infant with an inborn error of immunity (IEI) who developed fatal adverse events to this live-attenuated vaccine. This male infant received BCG (Serum Institute of India Pvt., Ltd., India) on Day 11 of life. On Day 25, he developed fever, followed by cervical lymphadenitis and bilateral otitis media with fluid drainage. On Day 118, he was admitted with severe hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis (HLH), and passed away on Day 145. The diagnostic exome sequencing test identified a hemizygous nonsense variant, NM_000397.3(CYBB):c.676C>T, p.Arg226* (rs137854592). Pathogenic variants of CYBB [cytochrome b(-245), beta subunit; Mendelian Inheritance in Man [MIM] accession code, 300481] are known to cause "immunodeficiency 34, mycobacteriosis, X-linked" (IMD34, MIM#300645) and "chronic granulomatous disease, X-linked" (CGDX, MIM#306400). The natural history of his illness is consistent with "X-linked recessive Mendelian susceptibility to mycobacterial disease (MSMD)." This entity is responsible for his BCG disease and is a likely trigger of his HLH. This disastrous event underlines the importance of developing worldwide policies that target BCG disease prevention, especially in communities with high prevalence of IEI. Moreover, screening for genetic causes of MSMD in the community could pave the way, at least partially, for scale-up of tuberculosis (TB) prevention.

Chronic granulomatous disease.

Project description:Chronic granulomatous disease (CGD) is a paradigm for nonlymphoid primary immune defects, and has guided elucidation of oxygen metabolism in the phagocyte, vasculature, and brain. It has been in the forefront of the development of antimicrobial prophylaxis before the advent of advanced HIV and before its routine use in neutropenia. It has been an attractive target for gene therapy and bone marrow transplantation for nonmalignant diseases. Therefore, CGD is worthy of attention for its historical interest and because it is a disease for which expert management is imperative.
