Autoimmune Polyendocrine Syndrome v1.3 AIRE Ida Ertmanska Tag Q4_25_MOI tag was added to gene: AIRE.
Autoimmune Polyendocrine Syndrome v1.3 AIRE Ida Ertmanska Phenotypes for gene: AIRE were changed from to Autoimmune polyendocrinopathy syndrome , type I, with or without reversible metaphyseal dysplasia, OMIM:240300; autoimmune polyendocrine syndrome type 1, MONDO:0009411
Autoimmune Polyendocrine Syndrome v1.2 AIRE Ida Ertmanska Publications for gene: AIRE were set to
Autoimmune Polyendocrine Syndrome v1.1 AIRE Ida Ertmanska commented on gene: AIRE: Comment on mode of inheritance: While monoallelic variants in AIRE have been associated with Autoimmune polyendocrinopathy syndrome, type I (APS-1), they result in an incompletely penetrant, milder phenotype. There are only 2 unrelated families reported in literature with heterozygous AIRE variants and hypoparathyroidism; the variant did not segregate with disease in the family reported in PMID:37235056. There are numerous individuals reported with biallelic variants in AIRE with Autoimmune polyendocrinopathy syndrome type 1, with hypoparathyroidism being the most common symptom - heterozygous family members reported as unaffected (PMIDs: 19393987; 27253668; 35521792). Based on the available evidence, the MOI should be changed to BIALLELIC, autosomal or pseudoautosomal for Familial hypoparathyroidism, until more evidence emerges.
Autoimmune Polyendocrine Syndrome v1.1 AIRE Ida Ertmanska changed review comment from: MONOALLELIC REPORTS:
PMID: 11600535 Cetani et al., 2001
Italian family with autoimmune polyendocrinopathy-candidiasis-ectodermal dystrophy.
Proband: 38yo female, diagnosed with idiopathic hypoparathyroidism at age 5 yrs; recurrent oral candidiasis since adolescence, enamel dysplasia. Affected individuals (either with hypothyroid autoimmune thyroiditis or APECED phenotype) were heterozygous for c.682G>T, p.(Gly228Trp) - variant not in gnomAD v4, Revel score = 0.74. Variant segregated with disease. Only the coding sequence of AIRE was investigated.

PMID: 29129473 Abbott et al., 2017
17yo Caucasian man with type I diabetes (T1DM) onset at age 3; mother had rheumatoid arthritis; no adrenal insufficiency noted. Seq method: panel of 345 genes with known immunologic function; 6 candidate variants were identified, but c.739C>T, p.Arg247Cys was reported as diagnostic, also present in the mother. Variant is present in a heterozygous state in 48 individuals in gnomAD v4; Revel score = 0.45 (Uncertain). Anti-cytokine antibodies typically seen in APECED were absent.

PMID: 37235056 Oftedal et al., 2023
11 unrelated patients with heterozygous AIRE mutations.

BIALLELIC REPORTS:
PMID 19393987 Pavlic and Waltimo-Sirén, 2009
Patients with autoimmune polyendocrinopathy–candidiasis–ectodermal dystrophy (APECED), also known as autoimmune polyglandular syndrome type I (APS 1).
Family 1 - female patient A, 9yo, oldest child of three siblings - compound heterozygote with R257X / 653-7_-5delCTC mutations in AIRE. Presented with hypoplastic enamel, hypoparathyroidism (HPT), hypoadrenocorticism, and chronic mucocutaneous candidiasis (CMC). Siblings asymptomatic, not genotyped.
Family 2 - female proband (patient B) with APECED harboured compound het mutations in AIRE: p.Arg257Ter; p.Thr16Met. Unaffected family members were either carriers or WT. Similarly affected brother (patient C), who harboured the same variants in AIRE.
Patient B presented with ectodermal dystrophy and hypoparathyroidism at age 5, and CMC at age 11.

PMID: 27253668 Bruserud et al., 2016
Report of fifty-two patients from 34 Norwegian families with biallelic variants in AIRE (relatedness?). Enamel hypoplasia, hypoparathyroidism, and CMC were the most frequent components. 38/52 patients presented with hypoparathyroidism (73%), and it was the initial presenting symptom in 17 patients in the cohort.

PMID: 35521792 Cranston et al., 2022
Biallelic AIRE variants identified in 35 probands with APS-1 and 5 probands with isolated hypoparathyroidism. Hypoparathyroidism was present in 87% of 40 mutation-positive individuals - most common symptom in this cohort. Selected cases:
Proband 3: age 14, homozygous for c.44G>A, p.(Arg15His) in AIRE; presented with hypoparathyroidism, candidiasis, adrenal insufficiency, hypothyroidism.
Proband 5: age of onset 9yo; compound het: c.242T>C, p.(Leu81Pro); 1265delC, p.(Pro422fs); symptoms: hypoparathyroidism, adrenal insufficiency, type 1 diabetes.

11 unrelated patients with heterozygous AIRE mutations. Affected individuals presented with: Enteropathy, gastritis, UC (5/11), vitiligo (2/11), immunodeficiency (2/11), pernicious anemia (2/11). Some variants did not segregate with disease in the families - incomplete penetrance suggested.
Family IV - Greek - individual II-1 presented with hypoparathyroidism, Positive AAbs against IFN-ω; heterozygous for c.916G>A, p.G306R. Mother and uncle carried the same variant in AIRE, but were unaffected.
