Аннотация
BACKGROUND: In a substantial number of patients with non-cystic fibrosis (CF) bronchiectasis an etiology cannot be found. Various complex immunodeficiency syndromes account for a significant portion of these patients but the mechanism elucidating the predisposition for suppurative lung disease often remains unknown.
OBJECTIVE: To investigate the cause and mechanism predisposing a patient to severe bronchiectasis.
METHODS: A patient presenting with severe non-CF bronchiectasis was investigated. Whole exome analysis (WES) was performed and complemented by extensive immunophenotyping.
RESULTS: The genetic analysis revealed an autosomal dominant gain-of-function mutation (AD- GOF) in the signal transducer and activator of transcription 1 (STAT1) in the patient. STAT1 phosphorylation studies showed increased phosphorylation of STAT1 after stimulation with interferon γ (IFN-γ). Immunophenotyping showed normal counts of CD4 and CD8 T cells, B and NK cells, but a reduction of all memory B cells especially class switched memory B cells. Minor changes in the CD8 T cell subpopulations were seen.
CONCLUSIONS: Early use of WES in the investigation of non-CF bronchiectasis was highly advantageous. The degree of impairment in class-switched memory B cells may predispose patients with AD- GOF mutations in STAT1 to suppurative sinopulmonary disease.
