Abstract
Tumor necrosis factor receptor-associated periodic syndrome (TRAPS) belongs to systemic autoinflammatory diseases (AIDs). Many of these syndromes are genetically conditioned and can be inherited. Diagnosis relies on clinical symptoms and should be confirmed by genetic testing. One of the most serious complications is AA amyloidosis. We present the diagnostic route of a 33-year-old male with AA amyloidosis and his children, leading to diagnosis of monogenic autoinflammatory syndrome, confirmed by genetic analysis. A novel variant of the in-frame insertion type in one allele of TNFRSF1A gene was found by whole exome sequencing and confirmed by Sanger sequencing, which allowed a diagnosis of TRAPS. Three-dimensional modeling was used to assess the structural changes introduced into TNFR1 molecule by the insertion. The analysis of the 3D model revealed that accommodation of the 4AA insert induces misalignment of three cysteine bridges (especially the C70-C96 bridge) in the extracellular domain, leading to putatively misfolded and improperly functioning TNFR1. Three of the patient's daughters inherited the same variant of the TNFRSF1A gene and presented TRAPS symptoms. TRAPS is a very rare disease, but in the presence of suggestive symptoms the genetic diagnostic workout should be undertaken. Early diagnosis followed by appropriate clinical management can prevent irreversible complications.

Abstract
PURPOSE Nijmegen breakage syndrome (NBS) is a DNA repair disorder with a high predisposition to hematologic malignancies. EXPERIMENTAL DESIGN We describe the natural history of NBS, including cancer incidence, risk of death, and the potential effectiveness of hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) in preventing both pathologies: malignancy and immunodeficiency. RESULTS Among 241 patients with NBS enrolled in the study from 11 countries, 151 (63.0%) patients were diagnosed with cancer. Incidence rates for primary and secondary cancer, tumor characteristics, and risk factors affecting overall survival (OS) were estimated. The cumulative cancer incidence was 40.21% ± 3.5% and 77.78% ± 3.4% at 10 years and 20 years of follow-up, respectively. Most of the tumors n = 95 (62.9%) were non-Hodgkin lymphomas. Overall, 20 (13.2%) secondary malignancies occurred at a median age of 18 (interquartile range, 13.7-21.5) years. The probability of 20-year overall survival (OS) for the whole cohort was 44.6% ± 4.5%. Patients who developed cancer had a shorter 20-year OS than those without malignancy (29.6% vs. 86.2%; P < 10-5). A total of 49 patients with NBS underwent HSCT, including 14 patients transplanted before malignancy. Patients with NBS with diagnosed cancer who received HSCT had higher 20-year OS than those who did not (42.7% vs. 30.3%; P = 0.038, respectively). In the group of patients who underwent preemptive transplantation, only 1 patient developed cancer, which is 6.7 times lower as compared with nontransplanted patients [incidence rate ratio 0.149 (95% confidence interval, 0.138-0.162); P < 0.0001]. CONCLUSIONS There is a beneficial effect of HSCT on the long-term survival of patients with NBS transplanted in their first complete remission of cancer.

Abstract
The aim of our study was to evaluate redox status, enzymatic and non-enzymatic antioxidant barriers, oxidative damage of proteins, lipids and DNA, as well as concentration of coenzyme Q10 and vitamins A and E in patients with chronic granulomatous disease (CGD). The study was performed on fifteen Caucasian individuals (median age 24 years and seven months) diagnosed with CGD. The mutation in the NCF1 gene was confirmed in ten patients, and in the CYBB gene in five patients. We demonstrated high levels of total oxidant status (TOS) and oxidative stress index (OSI), lipids (↑8-isoprostanes (8-isoP), ↑4-hydroxynonenal (4-HNE)), proteins (↑advanced oxidation protein products (AOPP)) and DNA (↑8-hydroxy-2’-deoxyguanosine (8-OHdG)) oxidation products in CGD individuals as compared to sex- and age-matched healthy controls. We showed enhanced serum enzymatic activity of catalase (CAT) and superoxide dismutase-1 (SOD) and significantly decreased coenzyme Q10 concentration. Our study confirmed redox disturbances and increased oxidative damage in CGD patients, and indicated the need to compare redox imbalance depending on the type of mutation and nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NADPH) oxidase activity. The question regarding effectiveness of antioxidant therapy in patients with CGD is open, and the need to establish guidelines in this area remains to be addressed.

Abstract
Ataxia-telangiectasia (AT) and Nijmegen breakage syndrome (NBS) belong to a group of primary immunodeficiency diseases (PI) characterized by premature aging, cerebral degeneration, immunoglobulin deficiency and higher cancer susceptibility. Despite the fact that oxidative stress has been demonstrated in vitro and in animal models of AT and NBS, the involvement of redox homeostasis disorders is still unclear in the in vivo phenotype of AT and NBS patients. Our study is the first to compare both enzymatic and non-enzymatic antioxidants as well as oxidative damage between AT and NBS subjects. Twenty two Caucasian children with AT and twelve patients with NBS were studied. Enzymatic and non-enzymatic antioxidants – glutathione peroxidase (GPx), catalase (CAT), superoxide dismutase-1 (SOD) and uric acid (UA); redox status—total antioxidant capacity (TAC) and ferric reducing ability of plasma (FRAP); and oxidative damage products−8-hydroxy-2′-deoxyguanosine (8-OHdG), advanced glycation end products (AGE), advanced oxidation protein products (AOPP), 4-hydroxynonenal (4-HNE) protein adducts, and 8-isoprostanes (8-isop) were evaluated in serum or plasma samples. We showed that CAT, SOD and UA were significantly increased, while TAC and FRAP levels were statistically lower in the plasma of AT patients compared to controls. In NBS patients, only CAT activity was significantly elevated, while TAC was significantly decreased as compared to healthy children. We also showed higher oxidative damage to DNA (↑8-OHdG), proteins (↑AGE, ↑AOPP), and lipids (↑4-HNE, ↑8-isop) in both AT and NBS patients. Interestingly, we did not demonstrate any significant differences in the antioxidant defense and oxidative damage between AT and NBS patients. However, in AT children, we showed a positive correlation between 8-OHdG and the α-fetoprotein level as well as a negative correlation between 8-OHdG and IgA. In NBS, AGE was positively correlated with IgM and negatively with the IgG level. Summarizing, we demonstrated an imbalance in cellular redox homeostasis and higher oxidative damage in AT and NBS patients. Despite an increase in the activity/concentration of some antioxidants, the total antioxidant capacity is overwhelmed in children with AT and NBS and predisposes them to more considerable oxidative damage. Oxidative stress may play a major role in AT and NBS phenotype.

Abstract
BACKGROUND CD40 ligand (CD40L) deficiency, an X-linked primary immunodeficiency, causes recurrent sinopulmonary, Pneumocystis and Cryptosporidium species infections. Long-term survival with supportive therapy is poor. Currently, the only curative treatment is hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT). OBJECTIVE We performed an international collaborative study to improve patients' management, aiming to individualize risk factors and determine optimal HSCT characteristics. METHODS We retrospectively collected data on 130 patients who underwent HSCT for CD40L deficiency between 1993-2015. We analyzed outcome and variables' relevance with respect to survival and cure. RESULTS Overall survival (OS), event-free survival (EFS), and disease-free survival (DFS) were 78.2%, 58.1%, and 72.3% 5 years after HSCT. Results were better in transplantations performed in 2000 or later and in children less than 10 years old at the time of HSCT. Pre-existing organ damage negatively influenced outcome. Sclerosing cholangitis was the most important risk factor. After 2000, superior OS was achieved with matched donors. Use of myeloablative regimens and HSCT at 2 years or less from diagnosis associated with higher OS and DFS. EFS was best with matched sibling donors, myeloablative conditioning (MAC), and bone marrow-derived stem cells. Most rejections occurred after reduced-intensity or nonmyeloablative conditioning, which associated with poor donor cell engraftment. Mortality occurred mainly early after HSCT, predominantly from infections. Among survivors who ceased immunoglobulin replacement, T-lymphocyte chimerism was 50% or greater donor in 85.2%. CONCLUSION HSCT is curative in patients with CD40L deficiency, with improved outcome if performed before organ damage development. MAC is associated with better OS, EFS, and DFS. Prospective studies are required to compare the risks of HSCT with those of lifelong supportive therapy.

Abstract
This study compared the antioxidant status and major lipophilic antioxidants in patients with ataxia-telangiectasia (AT) and Nijmegen breakage syndrome (NBS). Total antioxidant status (TAS), total oxidant status (TOS), oxidative stress index (OSI), and concentrations of coenzyme Q10 (CoQ10) and vitamins A and E were estimated in the plasma of 22 patients with AT, 12 children with NBS, and the healthy controls. In AT patients, TAS (median 261.7 μmol/L) was statistically lower but TOS (496.8 μmol/L) was significantly elevated in comparison with the healthy group (312.7 μmol/L and 311.2 μmol/L, resp.). Tocopherol (0.8 μg/mL) and CoQ10 (0.1 μg/mL) were reduced in AT patients versus control (1.4 μg/mL and 0.3 μg/mL, resp.). NBS patients also displayed statistically lower TAS levels (290.3 μmol/L), while TOS (404.8 μmol/L) was comparable to the controls. We found that in NBS patients retinol concentration (0.1 μg/mL) was highly elevated and CoQ10 (0.1 μg/mL) was significantly lower in comparison with those in the healthy group. Our study confirms disturbances in redox homeostasis in AT and NBS patients and indicates a need for diagnosing oxidative stress in those cases as a potential disease biomarker. Decreased CoQ10 concentration found in NBS and AT indicates a need for possible supplementation.

Abstract
BACKGROUND V(D)J recombination takes place during lymphocyte development to generate a large repertoire of T- and B-cell receptors. Mutations in recombination-activating gene 1 (RAG1) and RAG2 result in loss or reduction of V(D)J recombination. It is known that different mutations in RAG genes vary in residual recombinase activity and give rise to a broad spectrum of clinical phenotypes. OBJECTIVE We sought to study the immunologic mechanisms causing the clinical spectrum of RAG deficiency. METHODS We included 22 patients with similar RAG1 mutations (c.519delT or c.368_369delAA) resulting in N-terminal truncated RAG1 protein with residual recombination activity but presenting with different clinical phenotypes. We studied precursor B-cell development, immunoglobulin and T-cell receptor repertoire formation, receptor editing, and B- and T-cell numbers. RESULTS Clinically, patients were divided into 3 main categories: T(-)B(-) severe combined immunodeficiency, Omenn syndrome, and combined immunodeficiency. All patients showed a block in the precursor B-cell development, low B- and T-cell numbers, normal immunoglobulin gene use, limited B- and T-cell repertoires, and slightly impaired receptor editing. CONCLUSION This study demonstrates that similar RAG mutations can result in similar immunobiological effects but different clinical phenotypes, indicating that the level of residual recombinase activity is not the only determinant for clinical outcome. We postulate a model in which the type and moment of antigenic pressure affect the clinical phenotypes of these patients.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Individuals with genetic defects in CD40 ligand (CD40L) or B-cell antigen receptor coreceptor molecules CD19 and CD81 suffer from an antibody deficiency. Still, these patients carry low levels of memory B cells and serum antibodies. OBJECTIVE We sought to assess why the remaining memory B cells and antibodies in the blood of these patients do not provide functional immunity. METHODS We included CD19-deficient patients (n = 8), CD40L-deficient patients (n = 8), and healthy controls (n = 50) to perform detailed flow cytometry on blood B cells, molecular analysis of IgA and IgG transcripts, as well as functional analysis of B-cell activation. RESULTS CD19-deficient and CD40L-deficient patients carried reduced numbers of all memory B-cell subsets except CD27(-)IgA(+) B cells. Their immunoglobulin heavy chain class-switched transcripts contained less somatic mutations and reduced usage of IgM-distal IgG2 and IgA2 subclasses. The selection strength of mutations for antigen binding was significantly lower than in controls, whereas selection to maintain superantigen binding was normal. Furthermore, the patients showed impaired selection against inherently autoreactive properties of their immunoglobulins. Somatic hypermutation analysis revealed decreased activation-induced cytidine deaminase and uracil-DNA glycosylase 2 activity in CD40L deficiency and increased uracil-DNA glycosylase 2 but decreased mismatch repair in CD19 deficiency. B-cell activation studies revealed that this was at least in part due to transcriptional regulation of DNA repair genes. CONCLUSIONS This study on CD19 and CD40L deficiencies illustrates that both the B-cell antigen receptor and CD40 signaling pathways are required for the selection of immunoglobulin reactivity. Still, they differentially mediate DNA repair pathways during somatic hypermutation, thereby together shaping the human in vivo antigen-experienced B-cell repertoire.

Abstract
UNLABELLED Chronic neutropenia (CN) is defined by an absolute neutrophil count (ANC) below 1500/ul, lasting at least 6 months. AIM clinical course and treatment of children afflicted with CN was analysed. MATERIAL AND METHODS we present 60 children treated in our department due to CN. The diagnosis was based on: bone marrow smears, ANC, immunologic investigation. RESULTS we established the diagnosis of: Kostmann disease (KD), cyclic neutropenia (CyN), hyperIgM syndrome (HIGM), Shwachman-Diamond syndrome (SDS), severe chronic neutropenia (SCN) and chronic benign neutropenia (CBN) in: 4, 2, 2, 1, 21 and 20 children respectively. Due to positive results of tests: MAIGA, GIFT or GAT autoimmune neutropenia of infancy (AIN) was confirmed in 7 children. In 3 infants neutropenia was connected with HCMV- infection and Gancyclovir therapy. RHuG-CSF treatment was implemented in 14 and effective in 13 patients. A girl, suffering from KD, during rHuG-CSF therapy, developed chronic myeloblasts leucaemia and died. A boy, with the same diagnosis, underwent bone marrow transplantation from related donor but died from invasive pulmonary aspergillosis. Antibacterial prophylaxis was necessary in 29 children. We used Amoxicillin or Trimethoprim/Sulfametoxazole, obtaining decrease of frequency and severity of infections. During observation period all children suffered from upper respiratory tract infections, 19 had chronic gingivitis. Severe infections- bacterial pneumonia, sepsis, severe varicella and measles were observed in 30, 5, 2 and 1 patient respectively. A teenager, affected with SCN, died due to fulminant Clostridium perfringens infection. CONCLUSIONS 1. RHuG-CSF therapy is essential in children with KD and SCN (when accompanied by severe infections). 2. AIN proved to be a mild condition, although ANC decreased below 500. In this entity rHuG-CSF is recommended during severe infections and before surgery. 3. Antibiotic prophylaxis is recommended for children with: KD, CyN, GSD1b, CN in 1st year of life, HIGM; in other cases it is considered individually.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Calprotectin (complex of S100A8 and S100A9) is the major calcium and zinc-binding protein of phagocytes. We report a new syndrome with recurrent infections, inflammation, and hyperzincaemia associated with excessively high plasma concentrations of calprotectin. METHODS We measured calprotectin in plasma and protein fractions by ELISA assay and zinc by atomic absorption spectrometry. Plasma proteins were fractionated by size exclusion chromatography and electrophoresis. Mass spectra of purified proteins were determined by MALDI-TOFMS. FINDINGS We assessed five patients, two of whom are related. All patients had much the same biochemical findings of hyperzincaemia (77-200 micromol/L, reference range 11-18 micromol/L) and raised plasma calprotectin concentrations (1.4-6.5 g/L, reference range <1 mg/L). All patients presented with recurrent infections, hepatosplenomegaly, anaemia, and evidence of systemic inflammation. Three patients had cutaneous inflammation and three presented in infancy with severe growth failure. Size exclusion chromatography showed that zinc and calprotectin were associated in a broad fraction with molecular weight range 100-300 kDa. Analysis by electrophoresis and mass spectrometry showed that the patients' protein contained normal S100A8 and S100A9 subunits. INTERPRETATION Dysregulation of zinc metabolism associated with accumulation in plasma of S100A8 and S100A9 defines a new disease, which encompasses a pathological role for dysregulation of two members of the large S100 protein family.
