Abstract

Very early-onset inflammatory bowel disease (VEO-IBD) is defined as IBD diagnosed in children younger than 6 years of age. VEO-IBD is often associated with a monogenic etiology or primary immune deficiency. Here, we report the case of a 7-month-old Chinese girl diagnosed with VEO-IBD who had a variant in the interleukin-10 receptor A (IL-10-RA) gene. The patient presented with recurrent fevers, abdominal pain, diarrhea, perianal abscesses, and oral ulcers. Whole-exome sequencing (WES) identified a novel compound heterozygote mutation, c.395T>G (p.Leu132Arg)/ex.1del (p.?), in the IL-10RA gene of the patient. The missense mutation c.395T>G (p.Leu132Arg) was inherited from her mother, and ex.1del (p.?) was inherited from her father. Neither mutation has been reported previously. The IL-10RA function of the patient was defective, as demonstrated by a failure of signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 (STAT3) activation in peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) stimulated with recombinant IL-10. The patient underwent matched unrelated peripheral blood hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT), and the clinical manifestations were dramatically improved. In summary, we identified a novel compound heterozygote mutat...Continue Reading

Allogenic & Autologous Therapies

Allogenic therapies are generated in large batches from unrelated donor tissues such as bone marrow. In contrast, autologous therapies are manufactures as a single lot from the patient being treated. Here is the latest research on allogenic and autologous therapies.

Blood And Marrow Transplantation

The use of hematopoietic stem cell transplantation or blood and marrow transplantation (bmt) is on the increase worldwide. BMT is used to replace damaged or destroyed bone marrow with healthy bone marrow stem cells. Here is the latest research on bone and marrow transplantation.
