A Rare STXBP2 Mutation in Severe COVID-19 and Secondary Cytokine Storm Syndrome

Abstract: Background: Primary (familial) hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis (pHLH) is a potentially lethal syndrome of infancy, caused by genetic defects in natural killer (NK) cell and CD8 T cell cytotoxicity, leading to hyperinflammation, elevated cytokine levels, and a disorganized immune response resulting in multi-organ system failure and frequently death. Secondary HLH (sHLH) can be triggered in the setting of malignances, diseases of chronic immune system activation, or by infectious etiologies. While pHLH is usu… Show more

“…Over the past 2 years, outcomes of SARS-CoV-2 infection have been reported for ∼1330 individuals with IEI. These studies range from reports of single cases or small numbers of patients 42 , 43 , 44 , 45 , 46 , 47 , 48 , 49 , 50 , 51 , 52 , 53 , 54 , 55 , 56 , 57 , 58 , 59 , 60 , 61 , 62 , 63 , 64 , 65 , 66 , 67 , 68 , 69 , 70 , 71 , 72 , 73 , 74 , 75 , 76 , 77 , 78 , 79 , 80 , 81 , 82 , 83 , 84 , 85 , 86 , 87 , 88 to cohort studies from Iran, 89 , 90 , 91 Turkey, 92 , 93 , 94 Brazil, 95 , 96 Israel, 97 Italy, 98 , 99 , 100 , 101 Spain, 102 the United Kingdom, 15 , 103 , 104 Mexico, 105 Denmark, 106 , 107 Poland, 108 …”

“…In comparison, infection was the predominant underlying trigger for adult patients (50%, n = 26) (Figure 2C). Of these, 69.2% ( n = 19, across three articles 46,47,53,56 ) were triggered by COVID‐19. Rheumatological diagnoses were present in around a quarter of adult patients (25.9%, n = 14), oncological diagnoses in 13%, no known triggers for 5.7% and 5.6% other.…”

“…Thus, both DOCK2 and DOCK8 missense mutations may contribute to sHLH in susceptible hosts by diminishing NK cell lytic function. Dominant-negative patient-derived missense mutations have been studied for several pHLH genes, including PRF1 , STXBP2 , and RAB27A [ 10 , 12 , 25 , 26 , 27 , 28 , 29 ]. While some missense variants in HLH genes can act as complete dominant-negative mutations, most have partial dominant-negative effects on perforin-mediated cytolysis, as is noted for the DOCK2 mutation reported herein [ 28 ].…”
