Heterogeneous clinical presentation in ICF syndrome: correlation with underlying gene defects

Abstract: Immunodeficiency with centromeric instability and facial anomalies (ICF) syndrome is a primary immunodeficiency, predominantly characterized by agammaglobulinemia or hypoimmunoglobulinemia, centromere instability and facial anomalies. Mutations in two genes have been discovered to cause ICF syndrome: DNMT3B and ZBTB24. To characterize the clinical features of this syndrome, as well as genotype-phenotype correlations, we compared clinical and genetic data of 44 ICF patients. Of them, 23 had mutations in DNMT3B … Show more

“…Immunodeficiencycentromeric instability facial anomalies has also been reported to include congenital malformations, including CAKUT. 18 Patient B268 presented with isolated CAKUT and was found to harbor a previously reported truncating mutation in the gene HPSE2. 19 This gene is responsible for urofacial syndrome.…”

“…However, with age, some patients exhibit T-cell lymphopenia and reduced proliferation of T cells following ex vivo stimulation. Few patients also develop neutropenia in the second decade of life (Weemaes et al 2013). …”

“…The majority of ICF patients have delayed walking and speech, and some may suffer from intellectual disabilities. Diagnosis of ICF can be established by demonstrating excess deletions and peri-centromeric breaks of chromosomes 1, 9, and 16 in metaphases of stimulated peripheral blood lymphocytes (Weemaes et al 2013).…”
