Chronic mucocutaneous candidiasis disease (CMCD) is characterized by recurrent or persistent infections of the skin, nails, and oral genital mucosae caused Candida albicans and, to a lesser extent, Staphylococcus aureus, in patients with no other infectious autoimmune manifestations. We report two genetic etiologies CMCD: autosomal recessive deficiency cytokine receptor, interleukin-17 receptor A (IL-17RA), dominant interleukin-17F (IL-17F). IL-17RA complete, abolishing cellular responses...
Severe influenza disease strikes otherwise healthy children and remains unexplained. We report compound heterozygous null mutations in IRF7, which encodes the transcription factor interferon regulatory 7, an child who suffered life-threatening during primary infection. In response to virus, patient's leukocytes plasmacytoid dendritic cells produced very little type I III interferons (IFNs). Moreover, dermal fibroblasts induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC)-derived pulmonary epithelial reduced...
Autosomal recessive IRF7 and IRF9 deficiencies impair type I III IFN immunity underlie severe influenza pneumonitis. We report three unrelated children with A virus (IAV) infection manifesting as acute respiratory distress syndrome (IAV-ARDS), heterozygous for rare TLR3 variants (P554S in two patients P680L the third) causing autosomal dominant (AD) deficiency. AD deficiency can herpes simplex virus-1 (HSV-1) encephalitis (HSE) by impairing cortical neuron-intrinsic to HSV-1. TLR3-mutated...
<h3>Objective:</h3> To determine the proportion of children with herpes simplex encephalitis (HSE) displaying TLR3 deficiency, extent allelic heterogeneity, and specific clinical features deficiency. <h3>Methods:</h3> We determined sequence all exons <i>TLR3</i> in 110 120 patients HSE enrolled our study who do not carry any previously described HSE-predisposing mutations pathway genes (<i>TLR3</i>, <i>UNC93B1</i>, <i>TRIF</i>, <i>TRAF3</i>, <i>TBK1</i>). All new mutant alleles detected were...
Kaposi sarcoma (KS), a human herpes virus 8 (HHV-8; also called KSHV)–induced endothelial tumor, develops only in small fraction of individuals infected with HHV-8. We hypothesized that inborn errors immunity to HHV-8 might underlie the exceedingly rare development classic KS childhood. report here autosomal recessive OX40 deficiency an otherwise healthy adult childhood-onset KS. is co-stimulatory receptor expressed on activated T cells. Its ligand, OX40L, various cell types, including found...

Objective To obtain reliability and applicability of the Korean version Bayley Scale Infant Development-II (BSID-II) in evaluating developmental status children with cerebral palsy (CP). Methods The inter-rater BSID-II scores from 68 CP (46 boys 22 girls; mean age, 32.54±16.76 months; age range, 4 to 78 months) was evaluated by 10 pediatric occupational therapists. Patients were classified several ways according group, typology, severity motor impairment level Gross Motor Function...
