A leukocyte disease characterized by autosomal dominant inheritance of lifelong, persistent elevated neutrophil counts primarily consisting of segmented neutrophils that has material basis in heterozygous mutation in the CSF3R gene on chromosome 1p34.
Features include always present findings: Enlarged spleen (splenomegaly) and Increased total neutrophil count; and sometimes findings: Myelodysplasia. 5 total HPO annotations.
Organ System | Phenotype Count | Example Features |
|---|---|---|
Blood and immune system | 3 | Elevated leukocyte alkaline phosphatase, Enlarged spleen (splenomegaly), Increased total neutrophil count |
CSF3R encodes colony stimulating factor 3 receptor (836 aa). Receptor for granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (CSF3), essential for granulocytic maturation. Highest expression in Whole Blood (2,126 TPM) and Spleen (383.0 TPM).
Hereditary neutrophilia is associated with mutations in the CSF3R gene on chromosome 1.
CSF3R is classified as a druggable target (Clinically Actionable, Druggable Genome, and External Side Of Plasma Membrane categories) with score 3.9.
Genetic testing for CSF3R is available. Testing is considered confirmatory for diagnosis.
Phenotype severity distribution: 2 always present features.
Estimated prevalence: <1 in 1,000,000 (VERY_RARE).
No clinical trials have been registered for hereditary neutrophilia.
3 publications have been identified in PubMed for hereditary neutrophilia. Research spans Review / Meta-Analysis (67%) and Case Report / Case Series (33%).
