Severe combined immunodeficiency associated with nephrogenic diabetes insipidus and a deletion in the Xq28 region
We evaluated a baby boy with severe combined immunodeficiency (SCID) and X-linked nephrogenic diabetes insipidus (NDI). This patient had less than 10% CD3+ T cells, almost all of which were positive for CD4 and CD45RO. Genetic studies demonstrated a 34.4 kb deletion at Xq28 which included AVPR2, the...

Zusammenfassung: | We evaluated a baby boy with severe combined immunodeficiency (SCID) and X-linked nephrogenic diabetes insipidus (NDI). This patient had less than 10% CD3+ T cells, almost all of which were positive for CD4 and CD45RO. Genetic studies demonstrated a 34.4 kb deletion at Xq28 which included AVPR2, the gene responsible for NDI; ARHGAP4, a hematopoietic specific gene encoding a GTPase-activating protein; and a highly conserved segment of DNA between ARHGAP4 and ARD1A, a gene involved in the response to hypoxia. Other patients with NDI, but without immunodeficiency, have had deletions that remove all ARHGAP4 except exon 1; however, no other patients have had deletions of the highly conserved intragenic region between ARHGAP4 and ARD1A. X chromosome inactivation studies, done on sorted cells from the mother and grandmother of the patient, carriers of the deletion, demonstrated exclusive use of the non-mutant X chromosome as the active X in CD4 and CD8 T cells. Surprisingly, NK cells, monocytes and neutrophils from these women demonstrated preferential use of the mutant X chromosome as the active X. These results are consistent with an X-linked form of SCID, due to the loss of regulatory elements that control the response to hypoxia in hematopoietic cells |
