An immunodeficiency disease characterized by onset of recurrent infections associated with lymphoproliferation and autoinflammation in the first decade of life. Mostly males are affected; carrier females may have mild symptoms. Laboratory studies show evidence of immune dysregulation, including hypogammaglobulinemia with reduced memory B cells, skewed T-cell subsets, increased levels of proinflammatory cytokines, activated T cells and monocytes, and autoimmune cytopenias, including neutropenia.
Features include always present findings: Decreased total neutrophil count; and very common findings: Enlarged liver (hepatomegaly), Low platelet count (thrombocytopenia), Enlarged spleen (splenomegaly), and Decreased circulating IgG concentration. 20 total HPO annotations.
Organ System | Phenotype Count | Example Features |
|---|---|---|
Blood and immune system | 5 | Autoimmune hemolytic anemia, Recurrent infections, Low platelet count (thrombocytopenia) |
TLR8 function has not been fully characterized.
Immunodeficiency 98 with autoinflammation, X-linked is associated with mutations in the TLR8 gene on chromosome X.
Genetic testing for TLR8 is available. Testing is considered confirmatory for diagnosis.
Phenotype severity distribution: 1 always present feature, 4 very common features, 7 common features.
No clinical trials have been registered for immunodeficiency 98 with autoinflammation, X-linked.
3 publications have been identified in PubMed for immunodeficiency 98 with autoinflammation, X-linked. Research spans Review / Meta-Analysis (100%).
