BACKGROUND: Mutations in PIK3CD and PIK3R1 cause activated PI3K-δ syndrome (APDS) by dysregulation of the PI3K-AKT pathway
METHODS: We studied precursor and peripheral B-cell differentiation and apoptosis via flowcytometry. Furthermore, we performed AKT-phosphorylation assays and somatic hypermutations (SHM) and class switch recombination (CSR) analysis
RESULTS: We identified 13 patients of whom 3 had new mutations in PIK3CD or PIK3R1. Patients had low total B-cell numbers with increased frequencies of transitional B cells and plasmablasts, while the precursor B-cell compartment in bone marrow was relatively normal. Basal AKT phosphorylation was increased in lymphocytes from APDS patients and natural effector B cells where most affected. PI3K mutations resulted in altered SHM and CSR and increased apoptosis
CONCLUSIONS: The B-cell compartment in APDS patients is affected by the mutations in PI3K. There is reduced differentiation beyond the transitional stage, increased AKT phosphorylation and increased apoptosis. This B-cell phenotype contributes to the clinical phenotype
