Gene: IVNS1ABP
PMID: 32499645 (2020) - Three unrelated families with LOF variants (1 intragenic deletion, 2 distinct nonsense variants) in the IVNS1ABP gene. All affected patients presented with an immunologic disorder characterised by severe recurrent cutaneous warts on the hands, feet, and face. Additional variable features of immunodeficiency and autoinflammation included recurrent infections, colitis, and retinal vasculitis. Laboratory studies showed that all variant carriers exhibited low CD4+ T cells and numbers of total T cells and B cells towards the lower limit of the normal range. Western blot analysis showed a ~50% reduction of IVNS1ABP protein in patient peripheral blood cells compared to control individuals, consistent with haploinsuffiency.
In kindred A, the mother of the proband also carried the variants - she did show a low CD4+ T cell and CD19+ B cell count; however, she did not have a history of infection. Therefore, the possibility of incomplete penetrance should be considered. In kindred B, the variant was not present in the unaffected father or brother; the mother was not available for genetic investigation. In kindred C, neither parent was available for investigation.Created: 10 Aug 2020, 2:42 p.m. | Last Modified: 10 Aug 2020, 2:42 p.m.
