Abstract
Deficiency of Adenosine Deaminase 2 (DADA2) patients presenting with primary immunodeficiency are at risk of uncontrolled EBV infection and secondary malignancies including EBV-related lymphoproliferative disorders (LPD). This paper describes the first case of EBV related diffuse large B-cell lymphoma in a patient with DADA2 and uncontrolled EBV infection. Consideration should be given to monitoring for EBV viraemia and to preventative EBV specific therapy in DADA2 and patients with at risk primary immunodeficiencies. A type I interferon (IFN) gene signature is associated with DADA2 though its association with immune dysregulation is unclear.

Abstract
Cerebral small vessel disease (cSVD) refers to a group of pathological processes with various etiologies affecting the small vessels of the brain. Most cases are sporadic, with age-related and hypertension-related sSVD and cerebral amyloid angiopathy being the most prevalent forms. Monogenic cSVD accounts for up to 5% of causes of stroke. Several causative genes have been identified. Sporadic cSVD has been widely studied whereas monogenic cSVD is still poorly characterized and understood. The majority of cases of both the sporadic and monogenic types, including cerebral autosomal-dominant arteriopathy with subcortical infarcts and leukoencephalopathy (CADASIL), typically have their onset in adulthood. Types of cSVD with infantile and childhood onset are rare, and their diagnosis is often challenging. The present review discusses the clinical and neuroimaging findings of monogenic cSVD from the prenatal to adolescent period of development. Early diagnosis is crucial to enabling timely interventions and family counseling.

Abstract
Systemic autoinflammatory diseases are a heterogeneous group of rare genetic disorders caused by dysregulation of the innate immune system. Understanding the complex mechanisms underlying these conditions is critical for developing effective treatments. Cellular models are essential for identifying new conditions and studying their pathogenesis. Traditionally, these studies have used primary cells and cell lines of disease-relevant cell types, although newer induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC)-based models might have unique advantages. In this review, we discuss the three cellular models used in autoinflammatory disease research, their strengths and weaknesses, and their applications to inform future research in the field.

Abstract
Mutations in the N-terminal WD40 domain of coatomer protein complex subunit α (COPA) cause a type I interferonopathy, typically characterized by alveolar hemorrhage, arthritis, and nephritis. We described 3 heterozygous mutations in the C-terminal domain (CTD) of COPA (p.C1013S, p.R1058C, and p.R1142X) in 6 children from 3 unrelated families with a similar syndrome of autoinflammation and autoimmunity. We showed that these CTD COPA mutations disrupt the integrity and the function of coat protein complex I (COPI). In COPAR1142X and COPAR1058C fibroblasts, we demonstrated that COPI dysfunction causes both an anterograde ER-to-Golgi and a retrograde Golgi-to-ER trafficking defect. The disturbed intracellular trafficking resulted in a cGAS/STING-dependent upregulation of the type I IFN signaling in patients and patient-derived cell lines, albeit through a distinct molecular mechanism in comparison with mutations in the WD40 domain of COPA. We showed that CTD COPA mutations induce an activation of ER stress and NF-κB signaling in patient-derived primary cell lines. These results demonstrate the importance of the integrity of the CTD of COPA for COPI function and homeostatic intracellular trafficking, essential to ER homeostasis. CTD COPA mutations result in disease by increased ER stress, disturbed intracellular transport, and increased proinflammatory signaling.

Abstract
The signal transducer and activator of transcription (STAT) family of proteins has been demonstrated to perform pivotal roles downstream of a myriad of cytokines, particularly those that control immune cell production and function. This is highlighted by both gain-of-function (GOF) and loss-of-function (LOF) mutations being implicated in various diseases impacting cells of the immune system. These mutations are typically inherited, although somatic GOF mutations are commonly observed in certain immune cell malignancies. This review details the growing appreciation of STAT proteins as a key node linking immunodeficiency, autoimmunity and cancer.

Abstract
Deficiency of adenosine deaminase 2 (DADA2) is a monogenic vasculitis syndrome caused by biallelic mutations in the adenosine deaminase 2 gene. The diagnosis of DADA2 is confirmed by decreased enzymatic activity of ADA2 and genetic testing. Symptoms range from cutaneous vasculitis and polyarteritis nodosa-like lesions to stroke. The vasculopathy of DADA2 can affect many organ systems, including the gastrointestinal and renal systems. Hematologic manifestations occur early with hypogammaglobulinemia, lymphopenia, pure red cell aplasia, or pancytopenia. Treatment can be challenging. Tumor necrosis factor inhibitors are helpful to control inflammatory symptoms. Hematopoietic stem cell transplant may be needed to treat refractory cytopenias, vasculopathy, or immunodeficiency.

Abstract
Deficiency of human adenosine deaminase type 2 (DADA2) is a complex systemic autoinflammatory disorder characterized by vasculopathy, immune dysregulation, and hematologic abnormalities. The most notable neurological manifestations of DADA2 are strokes that can manifest with various neurological symptoms and are potentially fatal. However, neurological presentations can be diverse. We here present a review of the neurological manifestations of DADA2 to increase clinical awareness of DADA2 as the underlying diagnosis. We reviewed all published cases of DADA2 from 1 January 2014 until 19 July 2022 found via PubMed. A total of 129 articles describing the clinical features of DADA2 were included in the analysis. Six hundred twenty-eight patients diagnosed with DADA2 were included in the review. 50.3% of patients had at least signs of one reported neurological event, which was the initial or sole manifestation in 5.7% and 0.6%, respectively. 77.5% of patients with neurological manifestations had at least signs of one cerebrovascular accident, with lacunar strokes being the most common and 35.9% of them having multiple stroke episodes. There is a remarkable predilection for the brain stem and deep gray matter, with 37.3% and 41.6% of ischemic strokes, respectively. Other neurological involvement included neuropathies, focal neurological deficits, ophthalmological findings, convulsions, and headaches. In summary, neurological manifestations affect a significant proportion of patients with DADA2, and the phenotype is broad. Neurological manifestations can be the first and single manifestation of DADA2. Therefore, stroke, encephalitis, posterior reversible encephalopathy syndrome, mononeuropathy and polyneuropathy, and Behçet's disease-like presentations should prompt the neurologist to exclude DADA2, especially but not only in childhood.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Deficiency of adenosine deaminase 2 (DADA2) results in heterogeneous manifestations including systemic vasculitis and red cell aplasia. The basis of different disease phenotypes remains incompletely defined. OBJECTIVE We sought to further delineate disease phenotypes in DADA2 and define the mechanistic basis of ADA2 variants. METHODS We analyzed the clinical features and ADA2 variants in 33 patients with DADA2. We compared the transcriptomic profile of 14 patients by bulk RNA sequencing. ADA2 variants were expressed experimentally to determine impact on protein production, trafficking, release, and enzymatic function. RESULTS Transcriptomic analysis of PBMCs from DADA2 patients with the vasculitis phenotype or pure red cell aplasia phenotype exhibited similar upregulation of TNF, type I interferon, and type II interferon signaling pathways compared with healthy controls. These pathways were also activated in 3 asymptomatic individuals with DADA2. Analysis of ADA2 variants, including 7 novel variants, showed different mechanisms of functional disruption including (1) unstable transcript leading to RNA degradation; (2) impairment of ADA2 secretion because of retention in the endoplasmic reticulum; (3) normal expression and secretion of ADA2 that lacks enzymatic function; and (4) disruption of the N-terminal signal peptide leading to cytoplasmic localization of unglycosylated protein. CONCLUSIONS Transcriptomic signatures of inflammation are observed in patients with different disease phenotypes, including some asymptomatic individuals. Disease-associated ADA2 variants affect protein function by multiple mechanisms, which may contribute to the clinical heterogeneity of DADA2.

Abstract
Cellular purine nucleotides derive mainly from de novo synthesis or nucleic acid turnover and, only marginally, from dietary intake. They are subjected to catabolism, eventually forming uric acid in humans, while bases and nucleosides may be converted back to nucleotides through the salvage pathways. Inborn errors of the purine salvage pathway and catabolism have been described by several researchers and are usually referred to as rare diseases. Since purine compounds play a fundamental role, it is not surprising that their dysmetabolism is accompanied by devastating symptoms. Nevertheless, some of these manifestations are unexpected and, so far, have no explanation or therapy. Herein, we describe several known inborn errors of purine metabolism, highlighting their unexplained pathological aspects. Our intent is to offer new points of view on this topic and suggest diagnostic tools that may possibly indicate to clinicians that the inborn errors of purine metabolism may not be very rare diseases after all.

[PMID: 37179309 PMCID: PMC10183141 DOI: 10.1186/s13023-023-02721-6] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/03/2022] [Accepted: 05/01/2023] [Indexed: 05/15/2023] Open
Abstract
INTRODUCTION Deficiency of adenosine deaminase 2 (DADA2) is a rare monogenic autoinflammatory disease, whose clinical phenotype was expanded since the first cases, originally described as mimicker of polyarteritis nodosa, with immunodeficiency and early-onset stroke. METHODS A systematic review according to PRISMA approach, including all articles published before the 31st of August 2021 in Pubmed and EMBASE database was performed. RESULTS The search identified 90 publications describing 378 unique patients (55.8% male). To date 95unique mutations have been reported. The mean age at disease onset was 92.15 months (range 0-720 months), 32 (8.5%) showed an onset of the first signs/symptoms after 18 years old and 96 (25.4%) after 10 years old. The most frequent clinical characteristics described were cutaneous (67.9%), haematological manifestations (56.3%), recurrent fever (51.3%), neurological as stroke and polyneuropathy (51%), immunological abnormalities (42.3%), arthralgia/arthritis (35.4%), splenomegaly (30.6%), abdominal involvement (29.8%), hepatomegaly (23.5%), recurrent infections (18.5%), myalgia (17.9%), kidney involvement (17.7%) etc. Patients with skin manifestations were older than the others (101.1 months SD ± 116.5, vs. 75.3 SD ± 88.2, p 0.041), while those with a haematological involvement (64.1 months SD ± 75.6 vs. 133.1 SD ± 133.1, p < 0.001) and immunological involvement (73.03 months SD ± 96.9 vs. 103.2 SD ± 112.9, p 0.05) are younger than the others. We observed different correlations among the different clinical manifestations. The use of anti-TNFα and hematopoietic cell stems transplantation (HCST) has improved the current history of the disease. CONCLUSION Due to this highly variable phenotype and age of presentation, patients with DADA2 may present to several type of specialists. Given the important morbidity and mortality, early diagnosis and treatment are mandatory.

A complementary approach for genetic diagnosis of inborn errors of immunity using proteogenomic analysis. PNAS NEXUS 2023; 2:pgad104. [PMID: 37077884 PMCID: PMC10109033 DOI: 10.1093/pnasnexus/pgad104] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/20/2022] [Revised: 03/06/2023] [Accepted: 03/17/2023] [Indexed: 03/30/2023]
Abstract
Advances in next-generation sequencing technology have identified many genes responsible for inborn errors of immunity (IEI). However, there is still room for improvement in the efficiency of genetic diagnosis. Recently, RNA sequencing and proteomics using peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) have gained attention, but only some studies have integrated these analyses in IEI. Moreover, previous proteomic studies for PBMCs have achieved limited coverage (approximately 3000 proteins). More comprehensive data are needed to gain valuable insights into the molecular mechanisms underlying IEI. Here, we propose a state-of-the-art method for diagnosing IEI using PBMCs proteomics integrated with targeted RNA sequencing (T-RNA-seq), providing unique insights into the pathogenesis of IEI. This study analyzed 70 IEI patients whose genetic etiology had not been identified by genetic analysis. In-depth proteomics identified 6498 proteins, which covered 63% of 527 genes identified in T-RNA-seq, allowing us to examine the molecular cause of IEI and immune cell defects. This integrated analysis identified the disease-causing genes in four cases undiagnosed in previous genetic studies. Three of them could be diagnosed by T-RNA-seq, while the other could only be diagnosed by proteomics. Moreover, this integrated analysis showed high protein-mRNA correlations in B- and T-cell-specific genes, and their expression profiles identified patients with immune cell dysfunction. These results indicate that integrated analysis improves the efficiency of genetic diagnosis and provides a deep understanding of the immune cell dysfunction underlying the etiology of IEI. Our novel approach demonstrates the complementary role of proteogenomic analysis in the genetic diagnosis and characterization of IEI.

Abstract
Adenosine deaminase 2 (ADA2) deficiency is a rare autosomal recessive disease that is caused by loss-of-function mutations in the ADA2 gene. It is considered a monogenic form of polyarteritis nodosa and frequently is positive for a type I interferon (IFN) signature. Renal manifestations in ADA2 deficiency are poorly characterized. We herein report 2 cases of ADA2 deficiency with different kidney patterns due, respectively, to a predominantly macroscopic and microscopic vasculopathy, and review the literature on kidney disease in ADA2 deficiency. Patient 1 presented with a spontaneous perirenal hematoma; angiography demonstrated multiple microaneurysms but no further defects of the renal parenchyma; his kidney function remained normal. Patient 2 experienced slowly deteriorating kidney function and proteinuria. No major angiographic abnormalities were detected, while kidney biopsy revealed massive vasculopathy resembling chronic thrombotic microangiopathy (TMA) of the small and medium-sized vessels. Both patients had a positive peripheral type I IFN signature. In immunofluorescence staining of a kidney biopsy sample from patient 2, we observed marked expression of the type I IFN-induced protein MXA within endothelial cells, especially in vessels with TMA, and in infiltrating T cells. Our findings confirm that the kidney phenotype of ADA2 deficiency results from small and medium-sized vessel vasculopathy and suggest that type I IFN may be involved in the pathogenesis of kidney lesions.

CellCallEXT: Analysis of Ligand-Receptor and Transcription Factor Activities in Cell-Cell Communication of Tumor Immune Microenvironment. Cancers (Basel) 2022; 14:cancers14194957.

Abstract
Simple Summary CellCall is an R package tool that is used to analyze cell–cell communication based on transcription factor (TF) activities calculated by cell-type specificity of target genes and thus cannot directly handle two-condition comparisons. We developed CellCallEXT to complement CellCall. CellCallEXT can directly identify ligand–receptor (L–R) interactions that alter the expression profiles of downstream genes between two conditions, such as tumor and healthy tissue. Scoring in CellCallEXT quantitatively integrates expression of ligands, receptors, TFs, and target genes (TGs). The pathway enrichment analysis and visualization modules allow biologists to investigate how disease alters cell–cell communication. Furthermore, Reactome pathways were added into CellCallEXT to expand the L–R–TF database. Abstract (1) Background: Single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) data are useful for decoding cell–cell communication. CellCall is a tool that is used to infer inter- and intracellular communication pathways by integrating paired ligand–receptor (L–R) and transcription factor (TF) activities from steady-state data and thus cannot directly handle two-condition comparisons. For tumor and healthy status, it can only individually analyze cells from tumor or healthy tissue and examine L–R pairs only identified in either tumor or healthy controls, but not both together. Furthermore, CellCall is highly affected by gene expression specificity in tissues. (2) Methods: CellCallEXT is an extension of CellCall that deconvolutes intercellular communication and related internal regulatory signals based on scRNA-seq. Information on Reactome was retrieved and integrated with prior knowledge of L–R–TF signaling and gene regulation datasets of CellCall. (3) Results: CellCallEXT was successfully applied to examine tumors and immune cell microenvironments and to identify the altered L–R pairs and downstream gene regulatory networks among immune cells. Application of CellCallEXT to scRNA-seq data from patients with deficiency of adenosine deaminase 2 demonstrated its ability to impute dysfunctional intercellular communication and related transcriptional factor activities. (4) Conclusions: CellCallEXT provides a practical tool to examine intercellular communication in disease based on scRNA-seq data.

Abstract
BackgroundAdenosine deaminase 2 (ADA2) is a homodimeric, extracellular enzyme and putative growth factor that is produced by cells of the myeloid lineage and, catalytically, deaminates extracellular adenosine to inosine. Loss-of-(catalytic)-function variants in the ADA2 gene are associated with Deficiency of ADA2 (DADA2), an autosomal recessive disease associated with an unusually broad range of inflammatory manifestations including vasculitis, hematological defects and cytopenia. Previous work by our group led to the identification of ADA2 variants of novel association with DADA2, among which was a unique c.1052T>A (p.Leu351Gln; herein referred to as L351Q) variant located in the catalytic domain of the protein.MethodsMammalian (Flp-IN CHO) cells were engineered to stably express wild-type ADA2 and ADA2 protein variants, including the pathogenic L351Q variant identified in DADA2 patients. An enzyme assay and immunoblotting were used to assess ADA2 catalytic activity and secretion, respectively, and the outcome of experimentally induced inhibition of protein processing (Golgi transport and N-linked glycosylation) was assessed. Reverse transcription quantitative real-time PCR (RT-qPCR) was applied to determine the relative expression of Type I Interferon stimulated genes (ISGs), IFIT3 and IRF7.ResultsIn addition to abrogating catalytic activity, the L351Q variant impaired secretion of L351Q ADA2 resulting in an intracellular accumulation of L351Q ADA2 protein that was not observed in cells expressing wild-type ADA2 or other ADA2 protein variants. Retention of L351Q ADA2 was not attributable to impaired glycosylation on neighboring asparagine residues and did not impact cell growth or integrity. Constitutive expression of Type I ISGs IFIT3 and IRF7 was observed in cells expressing L351Q ADA2.ConclusionsThe impaired secretion of L351Q ADA2 may be an important factor leading to the severe phenotype observed in patients with this variant further emphasizing the importance of assessing impacts beyond catalytic activity when evaluating genotype-phenotype relationships in DADA2.

A role for N-glycosylation in active adenosine deaminase 2 production. Biochim Biophys Acta Gen Subj 2022; 1866:130237.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Adenosine deaminase 2 (ADA2) regulates extracellular levels of adenosine and the optimal expression of ADA2 is essential for modulating the immune system. However, the mechanisms regulating the production of active ADA2 enzyme are not fully understood. In this study, we examined the role of N-glycosylation in the formation of functional structures and the secretory pathway of ADA2. METHODS We investigated the roles of N-glycosylation in the activity, homodimerization, and secretion of ADA2 via site-directed mutagenesis and the application of N-glycosylation inhibitors. Subcellular localization of ADA2 along with the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) glucosidase inhibitor was observed under confocal fluorescence microscope. RESULTS Inhibiting the initial N-glycosylation of ADA2 in the ER via site-directed mutagenesis or treatment with N-glycosylation inhibitors reduced the intracellular ADA2 activity and secretion. At this time, decreases in the ADA2 homodimers and ADA2 aggregation were observed in the cells. Treating the cells with castanospermine, an inhibitor of N-glycan editing in the ER, resulted in a reduction of the localization rate to the Golgi and markedly suppressed the ADA2 secretion. CONCLUSIONS These data suggest that the initial N-glycosylation and N-glycan editing in the ER are essential for the production of an active ADA2 enzyme and proper trafficking to the extracellular space. GENERAL SIGNIFICANCE With sufficient N-glycosylation in the ER, ADA2 exerts its function and is secreted extracellularly.

Abstract
Deficiency of Adenosine deaminase 2 (DADA2) is a monogenic autoinflammatory disorder presenting with a broad spectrum of clinical manifestations, including immunodeficiency, vasculopathy and hematologic disease. Biallelic mutations in ADA2 gene have been associated with a decreased ADA2 activity, leading to reduction in deamination of adenosine and deoxyadenosine into inosine and deoxyinosine and subsequent accumulation of extracellular adenosine. In the early reports, the pivotal role of innate immunity in DADA2 pathogenic mechanism has been underlined, showing a skewed polarization from the M2 macrophage subtype to the proinflammatory M1 subtype, with an increased production of inflammatory cytokines such as TNF-α. Subsequently, a dysregulation of NETosis, triggered by the excess of extracellular Adenosine, has been implicated in the pathogenesis of DADA2. In the last few years, evidence is piling up that adaptive immunity is profoundly altered in DADA2 patients, encompassing both T and B branches, with a disrupted homeostasis in T-cell subsets and a B-cell skewing defect. Type I/type II IFN pathway upregulation has been proposed as a possible core signature in DADA2 T cells and monocytes but also an increased IFN-β secretion directly from endothelial cells has been described. So far, a unifying clear pathophysiological explanation for the coexistence of systemic inflammation, immunedysregulation and hematological defects is lacking. In this review, we will explore thoroughly the latest understanding regarding DADA2 pathophysiological process, with a particular focus on dysregulation of both innate and adaptive immunity and their interacting role in the development of the disease.

Abstract
Deficiency of adenosine deaminase 2 (DADA2) is an inherited autosomal recessive disease characterized by autoinflammation (recurrent fever), vasculopathy (livedo racemosa, polyarteritis nodosa, lacunar ischemic strokes, and intracranial hemorrhages, end organ vasculitis), immunodeficiency, lymphoproliferation, immune cytopenias, and bone marrow failure. Allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT) is curative for DADA2 as it reverses the hematological, immune and vascular phenotype of DADA2. The primary goal of HCT in DADA2, like in other non-malignant diseases, is engraftment with the establishment of normal hematopoiesis and normal immune function. Strategies in selecting a preparative regimen should take into consideration the specific vulnerabilities to endothelial dysfunction and liver toxicity in DADA2 patients. Overcoming an increased risk of graft rejection while minimizing organ toxicity, graft-versus-host disease, and infections can be particularly challenging in DADA2 patients. This review will discuss approaches to HCT in DADA2 patients including disease-specific considerations, barriers to successful engraftment, post-HCT complications, and clinical outcomes of published patients with DADA2 who have undergone HCT to date.

Abstract
Deficiency of adenosine deaminase type 2 (DADA2) was first described in 2014 as a monogenic cause of polyartertitis nodosa (PAN), early onset lacunar stroke and livedo reticularis. The clinical phenotype of DADA2 is, however, very broad and may involve several organ systems. Apart from vasculitis, children may present with i) Hematological manifestations (ii) Lymphoproliferation and iii) Immunodeficiencies. Patients with DADA2 can have variable patterns of cytopenias and bone marrow failure syndromes. Patients with DADA2 who have predominant haematological manifestations are associated with ADA2 gene variants that result in minimal or no residual ADA2 activity. Lymphoproliferation in patients with DADA2 may range from benign lymphoid hyperplasia to lymphoreticular malignancies. Patients may present with generalized lymphadenopathy, splenomegaly, autoimmune lymphoproliferative syndrome (ALPS) like phenotype, Hodgkin lymphoma, T-cell large granular lymphocytic infiltration of bone marrow and multicentric Castleman disease. Immunodeficiencies associated with DADA are usually mild. Affected patients have variable hypogammaglobulinemia, decrease in B cells, low natural killer cells, common variable immunodeficiency and rarely T cell immunodeficiency. To conclude, DADA2 has an extremely variable phenotype and needs to be considered as a differential diagnosis in diverse clinical conditions. In this review, we describe the evolving clinical phenotypes of DADA2 with a special focus on haematological and immunological manifestations.

Abstract
Deficiency of adenosine deaminase 2 (DADA2) was first described as a monogenic form of systemic vasculitis that closely resembles polyarteritis nodosa (PAN). The phenotypic spectrum of DADA2 has vastly expanded in recent years and now includes pure red cell aplasia, bone marrow failure syndrome, lymphoproliferative disease, and humoral immunodeficiency. Vasculitis remains the most common presentation of DADA2, and treatment with tumor necrosis factor inhibitors (TNFi) has shown remarkable efficacy in preventing stroke and ameliorating features of systemic inflammation. The precise function of ADA2 has not been elucidated, and how absence of ADA2 ignites inflammation is an active area of research. In this review, we will discuss the current understanding of DADA2 from research and clinical perspectives. We will evaluate several proposed functions of ADA2, including polarization of monocyte phenotype, regulation of neutrophil extracellular trap formation, and modulation of innate immunity. We will also review the role of inflammatory cytokines including TNF and type I interferons. Lastly, we will provide future perspectives on understanding the phenotypic heterogeneity of DADA2 and discuss potential treatment options.

Abstract
The deficiency of adenosine deaminase 2 (DADA2) is an autosomal recessively inherited disease that has undergone extensive phenotypic expansion since being first described in patients with fevers, recurrent strokes, livedo racemosa, and polyarteritis nodosa in 2014. It is now recognized that patients may develop multisystem disease that spans multiple medical subspecialties. Here, we describe the findings from a large single center longitudinal cohort of 60 patients, the broad phenotypic presentation, as well as highlight the cohort’s experience with hematopoietic cell transplantation and COVID-19. Disease manifestations could be separated into three major phenotypes: inflammatory/vascular, immune dysregulatory, and hematologic, however, most patients presented with significant overlap between these three phenotype groups. The cardinal features of the inflammatory/vascular group included cutaneous manifestations and stroke. Evidence of immune dysregulation was commonly observed, including hypogammaglobulinemia, absent to low class-switched memory B cells, and inadequate response to vaccination. Despite these findings, infectious complications were exceedingly rare in this cohort. Hematologic findings including pure red cell aplasia (PRCA), immune-mediated neutropenia, and pancytopenia were observed in half of patients. We significantly extended our experience using anti-TNF agents, with no strokes observed in 2026 patient months on TNF inhibitors. Meanwhile, hematologic and immune features had a more varied response to anti-TNF therapy. Six patients received a total of 10 allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplant (HCT) procedures, with secondary graft failure necessitating repeat HCTs in three patients, as well as unplanned donor cell infusions to avoid graft rejection. All transplanted patients had been on anti-TNF agents prior to HCT and received varying degrees of reduced-intensity or non-myeloablative conditioning. All transplanted patients are still alive and have discontinued anti-TNF therapy. The long-term follow up afforded by this large single-center study underscores the clinical heterogeneity of DADA2 and the potential for phenotypes to evolve in any individual patient.

Abstract
Polyarteritis nodosa (PAN) is a systemic necrotizing vasculitis that preferentially affects medium-sized vessels. The idiopathic form has become rare. Its treatment relies on corticosteroid therapy and is combined with cyclophosphamide infusions for severe forms. Secondary PANs were mainly associated with hepatitis B virus infection; they were treated with plasma exchange and antivirals in combination with short-term corticosteroid therapy. Other secondary forms of PAN are now becoming more common, such as those due to blood disorders. More recently, a monogenic form linked to adenosine deaminase-2 mutations has been identified. It requires treatment with TNF inhibitors to decrease the occurrence of ischemic central nervous system complications, which make it serious. Once remission is obtained, relapses are typically rare during PAN and affect 28% of idiopathic PANs, within an average of 26 months from the diagnosis. The prognosis has improved considerably, with 5- and 10-year survival rates of 83% and 74%.

Abstract
The family of autoinflammatory diseases (AIDs) continues to expand and now includes over 40 genetically defined disorders. Their defining feature is a dysregulated inflammatory innate immune response. Many AIDs have overlapping clinical characteristics, and dermatological manifestations are common. Autoinflammatory features have also been recognized in more common dermatological conditions such as psoriasis. Furthermore, there is an increasing understanding that immunodeficiencies, autoimmune disorders, and even some allergic disorders share overlapping autoinflammatory features. The discovery that certain somatic mutations, arising within the bone marrow and restricted to the myeloid cell lineage can cause acquired AID heralds a new era of discoveries in this field.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Deficiency of adenosine deaminase 2 (DADA2) is a recessively inherited autoinflammatory disorder caused by a loss of functional ADA2 protein. TNF inhibition (TNFi) has proven to be highly effective in treating inflammatory manifestations. OBJECTIVE To explore the pathophysiology and the underlying mechanisms of TNF inhibitor response in these patients. METHODS We performed Sanger sequencing of the ADA2 gene. We used flow cytometry, intracellular cytokine staining, transcriptome analysis, immunohistochemistry, and cell differentiation experiments to define an inflammatory signature in DADA2 patients and studied their response to TNF inhibitor treatment. RESULTS We demonstrated increased inflammatory signals and overproduction of cytokines mediated by IFN and NF-κB pathways in patients' primary cells. Treatment with TNFi led to reduction in inflammation, rescued the skewed differentiation towards the pro-inflammatory M1 macrophage subset and restored integrity of endothelial cells in blood vessels. We also report 8 novel disease-associated variants in 7 patients with DADA2. CONCLUSION Our data explore the cellular mechanism underlying effective treatment with TNFi therapies in DADA2. DADA2 vasculitis is strongly related to the presence of activated myeloid cells and the endothelial cell damage is rescued with anti-TNF treatment.

Abstract
Advances in DNA sequencing technology have significantly impacted human genetics; they have enabled the analysis of genetic causes of rare diseases, which are usually pathogenic variants in a single gene at the nucleotide sequence level. However, since the quantity of data regarding the relationship between genotype and phenotype is insufficient to diagnose some rare immune diseases definitively, genetic information alone cannot help obtain a mechanistic understanding of the disease etiology. For such cases, exploring the molecular phenotype using multiomic analyses could be the approach of choice. In this review, we first overview current technologies for multiomic analysis, particularly focusing on RNA and protein profiling of bulk cell ensembles. We then discuss the measurement modality and granularity issue because it is critical to design multiomic experiments properly. Next, we illustrate the importance of bioimaging by describing our experience with the analysis of an autoinflammatory disease, cryopyrin-associated periodic fever syndrome, which could be caused by low-frequency somatic mosaicism and cannot be well characterized only by multiomic snapshot analyses of an ensemble of many immune cells. We found it powerful to complement the multiomic data with bioimaging data that can provide us with indispensable time-specific dynamic information of every single cell in the "immune cell society." Because we now have many measurement tools in different modalities and granularity to tackle the etiology of rare hereditary immune diseases, we might gain a deeper understanding of the pathogenic mechanisms of these diseases by taking full advantage of these tools in an integrated manner.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES The first objective was to assess the role of vascular inflammatory factors in the pathogenesis of deficiency of adenosine deaminase 2 (DADA2) and to compare these markers among DADA2 patients with different phenotypes. We also aimed to investigate differences between DADA2 patients with vasculitic features and classic polyarteritis nodosa (PAN) for the aforementioned markers. METHODS The study included eighteen DADA2 patients, ten PAN patients, and eight healthy controls. Plasma levels of sST2, sRAGE, Tie-2, sCD40L, Tie-1, sFlt-1, LIGHT, TNF-α, PlGF, IL-6, IL-18, IL-10, MCP-1 were studied by cytometric bead-based multiplex assay panel. RESULTS Among the DADA2 patients, five had hematological manifestations, 13 had vasculitic findings, and accompanying immunological findings were present in seven patients. Nine patients had neurological findings, five of whom had neuropathy. Plasma levels of Tie-1 and sFlt-1 were higher in the overall DADA2 patients compared to healthy controls and PAN patients (p<0.001 and p = 0.004, respectively). DADA2 patients with PAN-like features had higher sRAGE, Tie-2, and TNF-α levels compared to PAN patients (p = 0.013, p = 0.003, and p = 0.001, respectively). In DADA2 patients with hematological findings, plasma IL-18 levels were higher than those with PAN-like phenotype (p = 0.001). Finally, DADA2 patients with neuropathy had higher sRAGE concentrations than patients without neuropathy and healthy controls (p = 0.03 and p = 0.008, respectively). CONCLUSIONS We suggest that the high plasma IL-18 levels observed in DADA2 patients with hematologic manifestations may be associated with an activated IFNγ pathway, and lack of response to anti-TNF treatment. We identified sRAGE as a potential biomarker of neuropathy in DADA2 patients. Higher concentrations of Tie-1, Tie-2, sFlt-1, sRAGE, and TNF-α distinguished DADA2 patients with PAN-like features from PAN patients.
