Impaired humoral immunity in X-linked lymphoproliferative disease is associated with defective IL-10 production by CD4+ T cells

Abstract: X-linked lymphoproliferative disease (XLP) is an often-fatal immunodeficiency characterized by hypogammaglobulinemia, fulminant infectious mononucleosis, and/or lymphoma. The genetic lesion in XLP, SH2D1A, encodes the adaptor protein SAP (signaling lymphocytic activation molecule-associated [SLAM-associated] protein); however, the mechanism(s) by which mutations in SH2D1A causes hypogammaglobulinemia is unknown. Our analysis of 14 XLP patients revealed normal B cell development but a marked reduction in the nu… Show more

“…Although the absolute number of total B cells in XLP patients is normal (38), these patients exhibit a marked reduction in their PB memory B cell population (39-41). However, previous analysis of the B cells in XLP patients revealed an increase in the circulating immature/transitional B cells (46).…”

“…Indeed, SAP-deficient CD4 + T cells have an impaired capacity to stably interact with cognate B cells, resulting in a failure to induce B cell clonal expansion [32]. Moreover, patients with X-linked Lymphoproliferative disease (XLP), an immunodeficiency resulting from mutations in the SH2D1A gene which encodes SAP, harbor humoral defects characterized by hypogammaglobulinemia and reduced numbers of T FH [33]. B cells thus play a key role in the T FH maturation step by both acting as APC and stabilizing T FH -GC B cell interactions through ICOSL and SLAM.…”
