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
Inborn errors of immunity (IEI) are a heterogenous group of disorders driven by genetic defects that functionally impact the development and/or function of the innate and/or adaptive immune system. The majority of these disorders are thought to have polygenic background. However, the use of next-generation sequencing in patients with IEI has led to an increasing identification of monogenic causes, unravelling the exact pathophysiology of the disease and allowing the development of more targeted treatments. Monogenic IEI are not only seen in a pediatric population but also in adulthood, either due to the lack of awareness preventing childhood diagnosis or due to a delayed onset where (epi)genetic or environmental factors can play a role. In this review, we discuss the mechanisms accounting for adult-onset presentations and provide an overview of monogenic causes associated with adult-onset IEI.
