Different Penetrance Of Disseminated Infections Caused By Nontuberculous Mycobacteria In Mendelian Susceptibility To Mycobacterial Disease Associated With A Novel Mutation

Abstract: Deficiency in the interleukin12/INFgamma pathway is a genetic condition that predisposes to some infections, including nontuberculous mycobacteria infection and extraintestinal salmonellosis. We report 2 cases in sisters who were diagnosed with a genetic defect caused by a new mutation in Interleukin-12 receptor β1 chain (IL12Rβ1) leading to different clinical presentations and responses to therapy.

“…MSMD is a rare inherited condition characterized by predisposition to recurrent and/or disseminated infections caused by weakly virulent mycobacteria as BCG vaccine. 1,2 Mycobacterial infection usually begins in childhood, rarely later during adolescence and adulthood. Clinical spectrum is very wide, ranging from localized to disseminated infections with one or more mycobacterial species.…”

“…Indeed, 47 of the 179 patients died (26%), 8 are asymptomatic (the oldest being 22 years old in 2010) and 124 were alive at the time of their description, the oldest of these patients being 51 years old in 2010 [28, 198]. Mycobacterial infections are the most frequent infections observed in these patients (BCG, M. avium , M. avium intracellulare complex, M. chelonae , M. fortuitum , M. fortuitum - chelonae complex, M. genevense , M. gordonae , M. tilburgii , M. triplex , M. simiae ) [28, 34, 36, 86, 116, 190, 193, 194, 198, 199, 204, 206, 208210, 214, 215, 235, 236]. Remarkably, BCG vaccination or disease protects against subsequent EM disease [28, 194] (Figure 5).…”

“…Six patients with AR complete IL-12Rβ1 deficiency presented with TB as their sole infectious phenotype, probably in the course of primary infection, providing proof-of-principle for the monogenic determinism of severe TB [20, 21, 24, 25, 83]. Interestingly, more than a third of all AR complete IL-12Rβ1-deficient patients (69 of 179 patients (38%)) have developed invasive salmonellosis [28, 30, 31, 39, 43, 188, 190, 196, 202, 206, 207, 233], associated with leukocytoclastic vasculitis in some cases [28, 196, 202]. Klebsiella pneumoniae is also pathogenic in patients with this deficiency [28, 31, 34, 38].…”
