Any lymphoproliferative syndrome in which the cause of the disease is a mutation in the CD27 gene.
Features include always present findings: Enlarged liver (hepatomegaly) and Enlarged spleen (splenomegaly); and common findings: Decreased circulating immunoglobulin concentration, Lymphoproliferative disorder, Persistent EBV viremia, and Lymphadenopathy and others. 23 total HPO annotations.
Organ System | Phenotype Count | Example Features |
|---|---|---|
Blood and immune system | 7 | Lymphoproliferative disorder, Hodgkin lymphoma, Aplastic anemia |
CD27 encodes CD27 molecule (260 aa). Costimulatory immune-checkpoint receptor expressed at the surface of T-cells, NK-cells and B-cells which binds to and is activated by its ligand CD70/CD27L expressed by B-cells. Highest expression in Cells EBV-transformed lymphocytes (172.5 TPM) and Spleen (95.1 TPM).
Lymphoproliferative syndrome 2 is associated with mutations in the CD27 gene on chromosome 12.
The CD27 protein participates in N-glycosylated CD274 and CD274 Transcription pathways.
CD27 is classified as a druggable target (Druggable Genome, External Side Of Plasma Membrane, and Protease Inhibitor categories) with score 14.9.
Genetic testing for CD27 is available. Testing is considered confirmatory for diagnosis.
Phenotype severity distribution: 2 always present features, 5 common features.
No clinical trials have been registered for lymphoproliferative syndrome 2.
3 publications have been identified in PubMed for lymphoproliferative syndrome 2. Research spans Case Report / Case Series (67%) and Clinical Trial Publication (33%).
