Abstract
Inborn errors of immunity (IEI) or primary immune deficiencies (PIDD) are caused by variants in genes encoding for molecules that are relevant to the innate or adaptive immune response. To date, defects in more than 450 different genes have been identified as causes of IEI, causing a constellation of heterogeneous clinical manifestations ranging from increased susceptibility to infection, to autoimmunity or autoinflammation. IEI that are mainly characterized by autoinflammation are broadly classified according to the inflammatory pathway that they predominantly perturb. Among autoinflammatory IEI are those characterized by the transcriptional upregulation of type I interferon genes and are referred to as interferonopathies. Within the spectrum of interferonopathies, genetic defects that affect the proteasome have been described to cause autoinflammatory disease and represent a growing area of investigation. This review is focused on describing the clinical, genetic, and molecular aspects of IEI associated with mutations that affect the proteasome and how the study of these diseases has contributed to delineate therapeutic interventions.

Abstract
Proteostasis, a portmanteau of the words protein and homeostasis, refers to the ability of eukaryotic cells to maintain a stable proteome by acting on protein synthesis, quality control and/or degradation. Over the last two decades, an increasing number of disorders caused by proteostasis perturbations have been identified. Depending on their molecular etiology, such diseases may be classified into ribosomopathies, proteinopathies and proteasomopathies. Strikingly, most—if not all—of these syndromes exhibit an autoinflammatory component, implying a direct cause-and-effect relationship between proteostasis disruption and the initiation of innate immune responses. In this review, we provide a comprehensive overview of the molecular pathogenesis of these disorders and summarize current knowledge of the various mechanisms by which impaired proteostasis promotes autoinflammation. We particularly focus our discussion on the notion of how cells sense and integrate proteostasis perturbations as danger signals in the context of autoinflammatory diseases to provide insights into the complex and multiple facets of sterile inflammation.

Abstract
Monogenic type I interferonopathies are inherited heterogeneous disorders characterised by early onset of systemic and organ specific inflammation, associated with constitutive activation of type I interferons (IFNs). In the last few years, several clinical reports identified the lung as one of the key target organs of IFN-mediated inflammation. The major pulmonary patterns described comprise children's interstitial lung diseases (including diffuse alveolar haemorrhages) and pulmonary arterial hypertension but diagnosis may be challenging. Respiratory symptoms may be either mild or absent at disease onset and variably associated with systemic or organ specific inflammation. In addition, associated extrapulmonary clinical features may precede lung function impairment by years, and patients may display severe/endstage lung involvement, although this may be clinically hidden during the long-term disease course. Conversely, a few cases of atypical severe lung involvement at onset have been reported without clinically manifested extrapulmonary signs. Hence, a multidisciplinary approach involving pulmonologists, paediatricians and rheumatologists should always be considered when a monogenic interferonopathy is suspected. Pulmonologists should also be aware of the main pattern of presentation to allow prompt diagnosis and a targeted therapeutic strategy. In this regard, promising therapeutic strategies rely on Janus kinase-1/2 (JAK-1/2) inhibitors blocking the type I IFN-mediated intracellular cascade. Progressive severe lung impairment may occur clinically hidden during monogenic interferonopathies. Pulmonologists should be aware of the main patterns of presentation in order to allow prompt diagnosis and initiate targeted therapeutic strategy.https://bit.ly/2UeAeLn

Abstract
Type I interferonopathies are a clinically heterogeneous group of inherited disorders of the innate immune system characterized by constitutive activation of the type I interferon signaling pathway. Cutaneous vasculopathy, lipodystrophy, interstitial lung disease and brain calcifications are the typical manifestations characterizing affected patients. The pathogenic mechanism commonly underlying these disorders is the abnormal activation of immune pathways involved in recognition of non-self-oligonucleotides. These natural defenses against virus consent humans to survive the infections. Target therapies capable of inhibiting type I interferon signaling pathway seem effective in these patients, albeit with possible incomplete responses and severe side effects.

Abstract
AIMS Nakajo-Nishimura syndrome (NNS) is an autosomal recessive disease caused by biallelic mutations in the PSMB8 gene that encodes the immunoproteasome subunit β5i. There have been only a limited number of reports on the clinicopathological features of the disease in genetically confirmed cases. METHODS We studied clinical and pathological features of three NNS patients who all carry the homozygous p.G201V mutations in PSMB8. Patients' muscle specimens were analysed with histology and immunohistochemistry. RESULTS All patients had episodes of typical periodic fever and skin rash, and later developed progressive muscle weakness and atrophy, similar to previous reports. Oral corticosteroid was used for treatment but showed no obvious efficacy. On muscle pathology, lymphocytes were present in the endomysium surrounding non-necrotic fibres, as well as in the perimysium perivascular area. Nearly all fibres strongly expressed MHC-I in the sarcolemma. In the eldest patient, there were abnormal protein aggregates in the sarcoplasm, immunoreactive to p62, TDP-43 and ubiquitin antibodies. CONCLUSIONS These results suggest that inflammation, inclusion pathology and aggregation of abnormal proteins underlie the progressive clinical course of the NNS pathomechanism.

Abstract
Nakajo-Nishimura syndrome is a proteasome-associated autoinflammatory syndrome with a distinct homozygous mutation in the PSMB8 gene encoding an inducible β5i subunit of the immunoproteasome. Although it is considered that immunoproteasome dysfunction causes cellular stress and contributes to the production of inflammatory cytokines and chemokines, its detailed mechanism is still unknown. On the other hand, hereditary autoinflammatory diseases are considered as a good target for the analyses using induced pluripotent stem cells, whose differentiation systems to the innate immune cells such as neutrophils and monocytes have been established. Therefore, to elucidate the pathogenesis of Nakajo-Nishimura syndrome, we attempted in vitro disease modeling using patient-derived induced pluripotent stem cells. For analyses, isogenic control cells in which the responsible mutation was repaired and another pair of healthy embryonic stem cells and isogenic mutant cells in which the same mutation was introduced had also been prepared with genetic engineering. By comparing a pair of isogenic cells with the wild-type and the mutant PSMB8 gene after differentiation into monocytes and immortalization to synchronize their differentiation stages, the reduction of immunoproteasome enzyme activity and increased cytokine and chemokine production in the mutant cells without stimulation or with interferon-γ plus tumor necrosis factor-α stimulation were observed, and therefore, the autoinflammatory phenotype was successfully reproduced. Decreased cytokine production was observed by the addition of antioxidants as well as inhibitors for Janus kinase and p38-mitogen-activated protein kinase. At the same time, the increased production of reactive oxygen species and phosphorylation of both signal transducers and activator of transcription 1 and p38-mitogen-activated protein kinase were detected without stimulation. Notably, an antioxidant specifically decreased the constitutive phosphorylation of signal transducers and activator of transcription 1. These results indicate the usefulness of a disease modeling using pluripotent stem cell-derived cells in clarification of the pathomechanism and discovery of new therapeutic drugs for Nakajo-Nishimura syndrome and related proteasome-associated autoinflammatory syndromes.

Abstract
Abstract
Immunoproteasomes degrade ubiquitin-coupled proteins and play a role in creating peptides for presentation by MHC class I proteins. Studies of gene-deficient mice, in which each immunoproteasomal subunit was affected, have demonstrated that dysfunction of immunoproteasomes leads to immunodeficiency, i.e. reduced expression of MHC class I and attenuation of CD8 T-cell responses. Recent studies, however, have uncovered a new type of autoinflammatory syndrome characterized by fever, nodular erythema and progressive partial lipodystrophy that is caused by genetic mutations in immunoproteasome subunits. These mutations disturbed the assembly of immunoproteasomes, which led to reduced proteasomal activity and thus accumulation of ubiquitin-coupled proteins. Those findings suggest that immunoproteasomes function as anti-inflammatory machinery in humans. The discovery of a new type of autoinflammatory syndrome caused by dysregulated immunoproteasomes provides novel insights into the important roles of immunoproteasomes in inflammation as well as the spectrum of autoinflammatory diseases.

Insights from Mendelian Interferonopathies: Comparison of CANDLE, SAVI with AGS, Monogenic Lupus. J Mol Med (Berl) 2016; 94:1111-1127.

Abstract
Autoinflammatory disorders are sterile inflammatory conditions characterized by episodes of early-onset fever and disease-specific patterns of organ inflammation. Recently, the discoveries of monogenic disorders with strong type I interferon (IFN) signatures caused by mutations in proteasome degradation and cytoplasmic RNA and DNA sensing pathways suggest a pathogenic role of IFNs in causing autoinflammatory phenotypes. The IFN response gene signature (IGS) has been associated with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) and other autoimmune diseases. In this review, we compare the clinical presentations and pathogenesis of two IFN-mediated autoinflammatory diseases, CANDLE and SAVI, with Aicardi Goutières syndrome (AGS) and monogenic forms of SLE (monoSLE) caused by loss-of-function mutations in complement 1 (C1q) or the DNA nucleases, DNASE1 and DNASE1L3. We outline differences in intracellular signaling pathways that fuel a pathologic type I IFN amplification cycle. While IFN amplification is caused by predominantly innate immune cell dysfunction in SAVI, CANDLE, and AGS, autoantibodies to modified RNA and DNA antigens interact with tissues and immune cells including neutrophils and contribute to IFN upregulation in some SLE patients including monoSLE, thus justifying a grouping of "autoinflammatory" and "autoimmune" interferonopathies. Understanding of the differences in the cellular sources and signaling pathways will guide new drug development and the use of emerging targeted therapies.

Abstract
Defective regulation of type I interferon response is associated with severe inflammatory phenotypes and autoimmunity. Type I interferonopathies are a clinically heterogenic group of Mendelian diseases with a constitutive activation of this pathway that might present as atypical, severe, early onset rheumatic diseases. Skin vasculopathy with chilblains and livedo reticularis, interstitial lung disease, and panniculitis are common. Recent studies have implicated abnormal responses to nucleic acid stimuli or defective regulation of downstream effector molecules in disease pathogenesis. As observed for IL1-β and autoinflammatory diseases, knowledge of the defects responsible for type I interferonopathies will likely promote the development of targeted therapy.

Abstract
A South African girl with CANDLE Syndrome is reported with emphasis on the orodental features and dental management. Clinical manifestations included short stature, wasting of the soft tissue of the arms and legs, erythematous skin eruptions and a prominent abdomen due to hepatosplenomegaly. Generalized microdontia, confirmed by tooth measurement and osteopenia of her jaws, confirmed by digitalized radiography, were previously undescribed syndromic components. Intellectual impairment posed problems during dental intervention. The carious dental lesions and poor oral hygiene were treated conservatively under local anaesthetic. Prophylactic antibiotics were administered an hour before all procedures. Due to the nature of her general condition, invasive dental procedures were minimal. Regular follow-ups were scheduled at six monthly intervals. During this period, her overall oral health status had improved markedly. The CANDLE syndrome is a rare condition with grave complications including immunosuppression and diabetes mellitus. As with many genetic disorders, the dental manifestations are often overshadowed by other more conspicuous and complex syndromic features. Recognition of both the clinical and oral changes that occur in the CANDLE syndrome facilitates accurate diagnosis and appropriate dental management of this potentially lethal condition.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Chronic atypical neutrophilic dermatosis with lipodystrophy and elevated temperature (CANDLE) is an autoinflammatory syndrome caused by an autosomal recessive gene mutation. This very rare syndrome has been reported in only 14 patients worldwide. A number of clinical signs have been reported, including joint contractures, muscle atrophy, microcytic anemia, and panniculitis-induced childhood lipodystrophy. Additional symptoms include recurrent fevers, purpuric skin lesions, periorbital erythema, and failure to thrive. To the best of the authors' knowledge, this is the first reported case of periodontal manifestations associated with CANDLE syndrome. CASE PRESENTATION An 11-year-old boy was referred to Cork University Dental School and Hospital, Cork, Ireland, with evidence of severe periodontal breakdown. The patient's medical condition was managed in Great Ormond Street Children's Hospital, London, United Kingdom. The patient's dental management included initial treatment to remove teeth of hopeless prognosis, followed by prosthodontic rehabilitation using removable partial dentures. This was followed by additional non-surgical periodontal treatment and maintenance. In the long term, the potential definitive restorative options, including dental implants, will be evaluated in discussion with the patient's medical team. CONCLUSIONS Periodontitis as a manifestation of systemic disease is one of seven categories of periodontitis as defined by the American Academy of Periodontology 1999 classification system. A number of systemic diseases have been associated with advanced periodontal breakdown, including diabetes mellitus, leukemia, and Papillon-Lefèvre syndrome. In the case described, treatment necessitated a multidisciplinary approach with input from medical and dental specialties for a young patient with severe periodontal breakdown associated with CANDLE syndrome.

Abstract
The disease spectrum currently known as the proteasome-associated autoinflammatory syndromes (PRAAS) was first described in 1939 in patients who presented with recurrent fevers beginning in infancy or early childhood, which were accompanied by nodular erythema, a pernio-like rash, and joint contractures. Since then, several syndromes, such as chronic atypical neutrophilic dermatosis with lipodystrophy and elevated temperature (CANDLE) syndrome, Nakajo-Nishimura syndrome (NNS), joint contractures, muscle atrophy, microcytic anemia and panniculitis-induced lipodystrophy (JMP) syndrome, and Japanese autoinflammatory syndrome with lipodystrophy (JASL), have been used to categorize patients with diseases within the same spectrum. Recently, independent studies have identified mutations in the human proteasome subunit β type 8 (PSMB8) gene, which result in a sustained inflammatory response in all syndromes. Further functional studies not only suggest a causative role of PSMB8 mutations but also imply that they represent one disease spectrum, referred to as PRAAS. In this paper, we review the clinical presentations and laboratory findings of PRAAS, as well as the most recent advances in pathogeneses, diagnosis, and treatment options for patients with diseases in this spectrum.

Abstract
The innate immune system is involved in the pathophysiology of systemic autoinflammatory diseases (SAIDs), an enlarging group of disorders caused by dysregulated production of proinflammatory cytokines, such as interleukin-1β and tumor necrosis factor-α, in which autoreactive T-lymphocytes and autoantibodies are indeed absent. A widely deranged innate immunity leads to overactivity of proinflammatory cytokines and subsequent multisite inflammatory symptoms depicting various conditions, such as hereditary periodic fevers, granulomatous disorders, and pyogenic diseases, collectively described in this review. Further research should enhance our understanding of the genetics behind SAIDs, unearth triggers of inflammatory attacks, and result in improvement for their diagnosis and treatment.

Abstract
The proteasome is a large, multiple subunit complex that is capable of degrading most intracellular proteins. Polymorphisms in proteasome subunits are associated with cardiovascular diseases, diabetes, neurological diseases, and cancer. One polymorphism in the proteasome gene PSMA6 (-8C/G) is associated with three different diseases: type 2 diabetes, myocardial infarction, and coronary artery disease. One type of proteasome, the immunoproteasome, which contains inducible catalytic subunits, is adapted to generate peptides for antigen presentation. It has recently been shown that mutations and polymorphisms in the immunoproteasome catalytic subunit PSMB8 are associated with several inflammatory and autoinflammatory diseases including Nakajo-Nishimura syndrome, CANDLE syndrome, and intestinal M. tuberculosis infection. This comprehensive review describes the disease-related polymorphisms in proteasome genes associated with human diseases and the physiological modulation of proteasome function by these polymorphisms. Given the large number of subunits and the central importance of the proteasome in human physiology as well as the fast pace of detection of proteasome polymorphisms associated with human diseases, it is likely that other polymorphisms in proteasome genes associated with diseases will be detected in the near future. While disease-associated polymorphisms are now readily discovered, the challenge will be to use this genetic information for clinical benefit.

Abstract
Nakajo-Nishimura syndrome (NNS) is a very rare hereditary autoinflammatory disorder that generally has its onset in infancy with pernio-like rashes and gradually develops into partial lipodystrophy. A distinct homozygous PSMB8 mutation encoding an immunoproteasome subunit has recently been identified as its genetic cause. Here, we report a new case of a patient with NNS who developed exudative erythemas on his face and extremities at 2 months of age, along with high fever, elevated serum hepatic aminotransferase levels and hepatosplenomegaly. Massive infiltration of inflammatory cells was observed histologically in the dermis and subcutis without apparent leukocytoclastic vasculitis. These symptoms improved with oral corticosteroids but recurred periodically, and a thin angular face with long clubbed fingers gradually developed. Identification of the PSMB8 mutation finalized the diagnosis of NNS at 5 years of age. Understanding a variety of clinicopathological features at the developmental stages is necessary to make an early diagnosis of NNS.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Chronic atypical neutrophilic dermatosis with lipodystrophy and elevated temperature (CANDLE syndrome) is an autoinflammatory syndrome recently described in children. We undertook this study to investigate the clinical phenotype, genetic cause, and immune dysregulation in 9 CANDLE syndrome patients. METHODS Genomic DNA from all patients was screened for mutations in PSMB8 (proteasome subunit β type 8). Cytokine levels were measured in sera from 3 patients. Skin biopsy samples were evaluated by immunohistochemistry, and blood microarray profile and STAT-1 phosphorylation were assessed in 4 patients and 3 patients, respectively. RESULTS One patient was homozygous for a novel nonsense mutation in PSMB8 (c.405C>A), suggesting a protein truncation; 4 patients were homozygous and 2 were heterozygous for a previously reported missense mutation (c.224C>T); and 1 patient showed no mutation. None of these sequence changes was observed in chromosomes from 750 healthy controls. Of the 4 patients with the same mutation, only 2 shared the same haplotype, indicating a mutational hot spot. PSMB8 mutation-positive and -negative patients expressed high levels of interferon-γ (IFNγ)-inducible protein 10. Levels of monocyte chemotactic protein 1, interleukin-6 (IL-6), and IL-1 receptor antagonist were moderately elevated. Microarray profiles and monocyte STAT-1 activation suggested a unique IFN signaling signature, unlike in other autoinflammatory disorders. CONCLUSION CANDLE syndrome is caused by mutations in PSMB8, a gene recently reported to cause "JMP" syndrome (joint contractures, muscle atrophy, microcytic anemia, and panniculitis-induced childhood-onset lipodystrophy) in adults. We extend the clinical and pathogenic description of this novel autoinflammatory syndrome, thereby expanding the clinical and genetic disease spectrum of PSMB8-associated disorders. IFN may be a key mediator of the inflammatory response and may present a therapeutic target.

Abstract
Nakajo-Nishimura syndrome (ORPHA2615; also registered as Nakajo syndrome in OMIM#256040) is a distinct inherited inflammatory and wasting disease, originally reported from Japan. This disease usually begins in early infancy with a pernio-like rash, especially in winter. The patients develop periodic high fever and nodular erythema-like eruptions, and gradually progress lipomuscular atrophy in the upper body, mainly the face and the upper extremities, to show the characteristic thin facial appearance and long clubbed fingers with joint contractures. So far about 30 cases have been reported from Kansai, especially Wakayama and Osaka, Tohoku and Kanto areas. At present, about 10 cases are confirmed to be alive only in the Kansai area, including one infant case in Wakayama. However, more cases are expected to be added in the near future. Although cause of the disease has long been undefined, a homozygous mutation of the PSMB8 gene, which encodes the β5i subunit of immunoproteasome, has been identified to be responsible in 2011. By analyses of the patients-derived cells and tissues, it has been suggested that accumulation of ubiquitinated and oxidated proteins due to immunoproteasome dysfunction causes hyperactivation of p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase and interleukin-6 overproduction. Since similar diseases with PSMB8 mutations have recently been reported from Europe and the United States, it is becoming clear that Nakajo-Nishimura syndrome and related disorders form proteasome disability syndromes, a new category of autoinflammatory diseases distributed globally.

Abstract
UNLABELLED OTHER THEMES PUBLISHED IN THIS IMMUNOLOGY IN THE CLINIC REVIEW SERIES Allergy, Host Responses, Cancer, Type 1 diabetes and viruses, Metabolic diseases. SUMMARY The disease-based discovery of the molecular basis for autoinflammatory diseases has led not only to a rapidly growing number of clinically and genetically identifiable disorders, but has unmantled key inflammatory pathways such as the potent role of the alarm cytokine interleukin (IL)-1 in human disease. Following its initial failures in the treatment of sepsis and the moderate success in the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis, IL-1 blocking therapies had a renaissance in the treatment of a number of autoinflammatory conditions, and IL-1 blocking therapies have been Food and Drug Administration (FDA)-approved for the treatment of the autoinflammatory conditions: cryopyrin-associated periodic syndromes (CAPS). CAPS and deficiency of the IL-1 receptor antagonist (DIRA), both genetic conditions with molecular defects in the IL-1 pathway, have provided a pathogenic rationale to IL-1 blocking therapies, and the impressive clinical results confirmed the pivotal role of IL-1 in human disease. Furthermore, IL-1 blocking strategies have shown clinical benefit in a number of other genetically defined autoinflammatory conditions, and diseases with clinical similarities to the monogenic disorders and not yet identified genetic causes. The discovery that IL-1 is not only triggered by infectious danger signals but also by danger signals released from metabolically 'stressed' or even dying cells has extended the concept of autoinflammation to disorders such as gout, and those that were previously not considered inflammatory, such as type 2 diabetes, coronary artery disease, obesity and some degenerative diseases, and provided the conceptual framework to target IL-1 in these diseases. Despite the tremendous success of IL-1 blocking therapy, the use of these agents in a wider spectrum of autoinflammatory conditions has uncovered disease subsets that are not responsive to IL-1 blockade, including the recently discovered proteasome-associated autoinflammatory syndromes such as chronic atypical neutrophilic dermatitis with lipodystrophy and elevated temperatures (CANDLE), Japanese autoinflammatory syndrome with lipodystrophy (JASL), Nakajo-Nishimura syndrome (NNS) and joint contractures, muscle atrophy, panniculitis induced lipodystrophy (JMP), and urge the continued quest to characterize additional dysregulated innate immune pathways that cause autoinflammatory conditions.

Abstract
Hereditary autoinflammatory syndromes are monogenic disorders with an inborn error of innate immunity, and include periodic fever syndromes such as familial Mediterranean fever (FMF), tumor necrosis factor receptor-associated periodic syndrome and cryopyrin-associated periodic syndromes (CAPS), pyogenic diseases such as pyogenic arthritis, pyoderma gangrenosum and acne syndrome (PAPAS), and granulomatous diseases such as Blau syndrome. By identifying the genetic abnormalities and subsequent analyses of the molecular mechanisms underlying these disorders, several critical in vivo pathways for inflammatory processes have been discovered. In this review, three categories of autoinflammatory disorders are discussed: inflammasomopathies, receptor antagonist deficiencies and proteasome disability syndromes. Inflammasomopathies are diseases with dysregulated NLRP3 inflammasome activation, and include CAPS with NLRP3, FMF with MEFV, and PAPAS with PSTPIP1 mutations. Analyses of these diseases have clarified some critical pathways regulating NLRP3 inflammasome signaling. Receptor antagonist deficiencies include the newly defined deficiency for interleukin-1 receptor antagonist resulting in sterile multifocal osteomyelitis with periostosis and pustulosis, and deficiency for interleukin-36 receptor antagonist resulting in generalized pustular psoriasis. The identification of these genetic abnormalities has revealed a critical role for receptor antagonists of IL-1 family cytokines in regulating neutrophil activation/recruitment. Finally, proteasome disability syndromes with PSMB8 mutations include Nakajo-Nishimura syndrome and related disorders distributed globally. Analyses of these diseases have unexpectedly shown a critical role of the ubiquitin-proteasome system in the regulation or homeostasis of inflammation/metabolism. Since there still remain a number of predicted but undefined hereditary autoinflammatory syndromes, further clinical and genetic approaches are required to discover novel in vivo critical inflammatory pathways.

Abstract
CONTEXT Lipodystrophies are heterogeneous, genetic or acquired disorders characterized by selective loss of body fat and predisposition to insulin resistance. The extent of fat loss determines the severity of associated metabolic complications such as diabetes mellitus, hypertriglyceridemia, and hepatic steatosis. EVIDENCE ACQUISITION AND SYNTHESIS Both original and review articles were found via PubMed search reporting on clinical features and management of various types of lipodystrophies and were integrated with the author's knowledge of the field. CONCLUSION The autosomal recessive congenital generalized lipodystrophy and autosomal dominant familial partial lipodystrophy (FPL) are the two most common types of genetic lipodystrophies. Mutations in AGPAT2, BSCL2, CAV1, and PTRF have been reported in congenital generalized lipodystrophy and in LMNA, PPARG, AKT2, and PLIN1 in FPL. CIDEC is the disease gene for autosomal recessive, FPL and LMNA and ZMPSTE24 for autosomal recessive, mandibuloacral dysplasia-associated lipodystrophy. Recently, an autosomal recessive autoinflammatory lipodystrophy syndrome was reported to be due to PSMB8 mutation. Molecular genetic bases of many rare forms of genetic lipodystrophies remain to be elucidated. The most prevalent subtype of acquired lipodystrophy currently occurs with prolonged duration of protease inhibitor-containing, highly-active antiretroviral therapy in HIV-infected patients. The acquired generalized and partial lipodystrophies are mainly autoimmune in origin and display complement abnormalities. Localized lipodystrophies occur due to drug or vaccine injections, pressure, panniculitis, and other unknown reasons. The current management includes cosmetic surgery and early identification and treatment of metabolic and other complications with diet, exercise, hypoglycemic drugs, and lipid-lowering agents.

Abstract
Proteasomes are multisubunit proteases that play a critical role in maintaining cellular function through the selective degradation of ubiquitinated proteins. When 3 additional β subunits, expression of which is induced by IFN-γ, are substituted for their constitutively expressed counterparts, the structure is converted to an immunoproteasome. However, the underlying roles of immunoproteasomes in human diseases are poorly understood. Using exome analysis, we found a homozygous missense mutation (G197V) in immunoproteasome subunit, β type 8 (PSMB8), which encodes one of the β subunits induced by IFN-γ in patients from 2 consanguineous families. Patients bearing this mutation suffered from autoinflammatory responses that included recurrent fever and nodular erythema together with lipodystrophy. This mutation increased assembly intermediates of immunoproteasomes, resulting in decreased proteasome function and ubiquitin-coupled protein accumulation in the patient's tissues. In the patient's skin and B cells, IL-6 was highly expressed, and there was reduced expression of PSMB8. Downregulation of PSMB8 inhibited the differentiation of murine and human adipocytes in vitro, and injection of siRNA against Psmb8 in mouse skin reduced adipocyte tissue volume. These findings identify PSMB8 as an essential component and regulator not only of inflammation, but also of adipocyte differentiation, and indicate that immunoproteasomes have pleiotropic functions in maintaining the homeostasis of a variety of cell types.

Abstract
Nakajo-Nishimura syndrome (NNS) is a disorder that segregates in an autosomal recessive fashion. Symptoms include periodic fever, skin rash, partial lipomuscular atrophy, and joint contracture. Here, we report a mutation in the human proteasome subunit beta type 8 gene (PSMB8) that encodes the immunoproteasome subunit β5i in patients with NNS. This G201V mutation disrupts the β-sheet structure, protrudes from the loop that interfaces with the β4 subunit, and is in close proximity to the catalytic threonine residue. The β5i mutant is not efficiently incorporated during immunoproteasome biogenesis, resulting in reduced proteasome activity and accumulation of ubiquitinated and oxidized proteins within cells expressing immunoproteasomes. As a result, the level of interleukin (IL)-6 and IFN-γ inducible protein (IP)-10 in patient sera is markedly increased. Nuclear phosphorylated p38 and the secretion of IL-6 are increased in patient cells both in vitro and in vivo, which may account for the inflammatory response and periodic fever observed in these patients. These results show that a mutation within a proteasome subunit is the direct cause of a human disease and suggest that decreased proteasome activity can cause inflammation.

Abstract
We performed homozygosity mapping in two recently reported pedigrees from Portugal and Mexico with an autosomal-recessive autoinflammatory syndrome characterized by joint contractures, muscle atrophy, microcytic anemia, and panniculitis-induced lipodystrophy (JMP). This revealed only one homozygous region spanning 2.4 Mb (5818 SNPs) on chromosome 6p21 shared by all three affected individuals from both families. We directly sequenced genes involved in immune response located in this critical region, excluding the HLA complex genes. We found a homozygous missense mutation c.224C>T (p.Thr75Met) in the proteasome subunit, beta-type, 8 (PSMB8) gene in affected patients from both pedigrees. The mutation segregated in an autosomal-recessive fashion and was not detected in 275 unrelated ethnically matched healthy subjects. PSMB8 encodes a catalytic subunit of the 20S immunoproteasomes called β5i. Immunoproteasome-mediated proteolysis generates immunogenic epitopes presented by major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class I molecules. Threonine at position 75 is highly conserved and its substitution with methionine disrupts the tertiary structure of PSMB8. As compared to normal lymphoblasts, those from an affected patient showed significantly reduced chymotrypsin-like proteolytic activity mediated by immunoproteasomes. We conclude that mutations in PSMB8 cause JMP syndrome, most probably by affecting MHC class I antigen processing.

Abstract
CONTEXT Genetic lipodystrophies are rare disorders characterized by partial or complete loss of adipose tissue and predisposition to insulin resistance and its complications such as diabetes mellitus, hypertriglyceridemia, hepatic steatosis, acanthosis nigricans, and polycystic ovarian syndrome. OBJECTIVE The objective of the study was to report a novel autosomal recessive lipodystrophy syndrome. RESULTS We report the detailed phenotype of two males and one female patient, 26-34 yr old, belonging to two pedigrees with an autosomal recessive syndrome presenting with childhood-onset lipodystrophy, muscle atrophy, severe joint contractures, erythematous skin lesions, and microcytic anemia. Other variable clinical features include hypergammaglobulinemia, hepatosplenomegaly, generalized seizures, and basal ganglia calcification. None of the patients had diabetes mellitus or acanthosis nigricans. Two had mild hypertriglyceridemia and all had low levels of high-density lipoprotein cholesterol. Skin biopsy of an erythematous nodular skin lesion from one of the patients revealed evidence of panniculitis. The lipodystrophy initially affected the upper body but later became generalized involving abdomen and lower extremities as well. CONCLUSIONS We conclude that these patients represent a novel autoinflammatory syndrome resulting in joint contractures, muscle atrophy, microcytic anemia, and panniculitis-induced lipodystrophy. The molecular genetic basis of this disorder remains to be elucidated.
