11055396	Intrinsic defects in erythroid cells from familial hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis type 5 patients identify a role for STXBP2/Munc18-2 in erythropoiesis and phospholipid scrambling.	Kostova EB, etal., Exp Hematol. 2015 Dec;43(12):1072-1076.e2. doi: 10.1016/j.exphem.2015.08.007. Epub 2015 Aug 28.	Familial hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis type 5 (FHL-5) is a rare genetic disorder caused by mutations in STXBP2/Munc18-2. Munc18-2 plays a role in the degranulation machinery of natural killer cells and cytotoxic T lymphocytes. Mutations in STXBP2 ... (more) -weight:700;'>STXBP2/Munc18-2 lead to impaired killing of target cells by natural killer cells and cytotoxic T lymphocytes, which in turn results in elevated levels of the inflammatory cytokine interferon gamma, macrophage activation, and hemophagocytosis. Even though patients with FHL-5 present with anemia and hemolysis, no link between the disease and the erythroid lineage has been established. Here we report that red blood cells express Munc18-2 and that erythroid cells from patients with FHL-5 exhibit intrinsic defects caused by STXBP2/Munc18-2 mutations. Red blood cells from patients with FHL-5 expose less phosphatidylserine on their surface upon Ca(2+) ionophore ionomycin treatment. Furthermore, cultured erythroblasts from patients with FHL-5 display defective erythropoiesis characterized by decreased CD235a expression and aberrant cell morphology.	26320718	2015-04-01
11343346	Late-onset severe chronic active EBV in a patient for five years with mutations in STXBP2 (MUNC18-2) and PRF1 (perforin 1).	Cohen JI, etal., J Clin Immunol. 2015 Jul;35(5):445-8. doi: 10.1007/s10875-015-0168-y. Epub 2015 May 7.	Severe chronic active Epstein-Barr virus (CAEBV) disease is defined as a severe progressive illness lasting 6 months or longer with infiltration of tissues with EBV-positive lymphocytes, markedly elevated levels of EBV DNA in the blood, and no known immunodeficiency such as HIV. These patients usua ... (more) lly have fever, splenomegaly, lymphadenopathy, and may have markedly elevated EBV antibody titers to viral capsid antigen. Although the cause of most cases of severe CAEBV is unknown, one well-documented case was associated with compound heterozygous mutations in PRF1 (perforin 1). Here we report a patient with prolonged severe CAEBV who underwent bone marrow transplant for his disease and subsequently was found to have compound heterozygous mutations in STXBP2 (MUNC18-2) as well as a heterozygous mutation in PRF1 (perforin 1).	25947952	2015-07-01
11555056	Prevalence of type 5 familial hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis in Korea and novel mutations in STXBP2.	Seo JY, etal., Clin Genet. 2016 Feb;89(2):222-7. doi: 10.1111/cge.12682. Epub 2015 Nov 20.	Familial hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis (F-HLH or FHL) is a potentially fatal immune dysregulation syndrome with a heterogeneous genetic background. Most recently, STXBP2 has been identified as the causative gene of type 5 FHL (FHL5) with a worldwide distrib ... (more) ution. In this study, we investigated the prevalence of FHL5 in Korea. About 50 Korean pediatric patients with HLH who lacked pathogenic mutations in PRF1, UNC13D, or in STX11 from the previous series of 72 patients with HLH were analyzed for STXBP2 mutations by conventional sequencing analyses. As a result, we found one patient with two novel mutations of STXBP2: c.184A>G and c.577A>C. c.184A>G (p.Asn62Asp) was located within a highly conserved region of the STXBP2 protein and predicted to be deleterious. c.577A>C in exon 7 resulted in incomplete splicing mutation with exon 7 skipping concurrent with exon 7-retained transcript with p.Lys193Gln substitution. The frequency of FHL5 was ~1% (1/72) in Korean pediatric patients with HLH. This is the first study on FHL5 in Korea, and the data from a nationwide patient cohort provide another piece of genetic profiles of FHL.	26451869	2016-10-01
