Dysregulated immune system secondary to novel heterozygous mutation of CIITA gene presenting with recurrent infections and Systemic lupus erythematosus

Abstract: The expression of Major Histocompatibility Complex (MHC) molecule is essential for homeostasis of the immune system. Tissue-specific expression of MHC-II is regulated at the level of transcription. The master regulator for transcription of the MHC-II gene is CIITA. Homozygous mutations affecting the CIITA gene results in bare lymphocyte syndrome type-II. The clinical manifestations of heterozygous mutations are not well reported. Hence, this case report aims to provide more insight into the clinical features a… Show more
