A Patient with CTLA-4 Haploinsufficiency Presenting Gastric Cancer

Abstract: Cytotoxic T-lymphocyte-antigen 4 (CTLA-4) is an essential negative regulator expressed on regulatory T cells (Tregs) and activated T cells. Germline heterozygous mutations in CTLA4 lead to haploinsufficiency of CTLA-4, resulting in the development of an autosomal dominant immune dysregulation syndrome with incomplete penetrance. We report here a Japanese patient with this disorder who has a novel heterozygous single nucleotide insertion, 76_77insT (p. L28SfsX40), in the CTLA4 gene. Peripheral blood mononuclear… Show more

“…Other CTLA4 mutations were predicted to interfere with ligand binding or protein stability, which might exert a dominant-negative effect 61. Many CTLA-4-deficient patients were clinically diagnosed with CVID 60 61 73 74. However, CTLA4 mutations were also detected in family members who were asymptomatic or had sIgAD, pointing to incomplete penetrance 60 61 73 74.…”

“…The frequency of patients with interstitial lung disease may potentially be higher for LATAIE disease in which patients are frequently described with chronic lung disease and/or digital clubbing, but interstitial lung disease was not always documented. 6,7,16 Furthermore, disease penetrance can vary. Penetrance for CHAI disease is incomplete, with an estimated 40% of CTLA4 mutation-positive family members appearing clinically healthy.…”

“…The majority of CTLA4 reported mutations causing CHAI resulted in loss of protein expression and include insertions/deletions (frameshift), nonsense, missense, splicing mutations, and 1 substitution mutation disrupting the start codon ( Figure 1B). 4,5,16 Two mutations led to alternative splicing, which removed the transmembrane domain resulting in soluble CTLA-4 rather than the more functional membrane-bound form ( Figure 1B). 4 Two missense mutations appeared to interfere with ligand binding.…”
