Autosomal recessive IRF7 deficiency was previously reported in three patients with single critical influenza or COVID-19 pneumonia episodes. The patients' fibroblasts and plasmacytoid dendritic cells produced no detectable type I III IFNs, except IFN-β. Having discovered four new patients, we describe the genetic, immunological, clinical features of seven IRF7-deficient from six families five ancestries. Five were homozygous two compound heterozygous for variants. Patients typically had one episode pulmonary viral disease. Age at onset surprisingly broad, 6 mo to 50 yr (mean age 29 yr). respiratory viruses implicated included SARS-CoV-2, virus, syncytial adenovirus. Serological analyses indicated previous infections many common viruses.

Hereby, we review manifestations pathophysiological aspects related to patients without disease as well impact of with chronic (CLD), particularly cirrhosis transplantation (LT). been associated overt proinflammatory cytokine profile, which probably contributes substantially observed early late abnormalities. CLD, decompensated cirrhosis, should be regarded a risk factor for severe death. LT was impacted pandemic, mainly due concerns regarding donation recipients. However, did not represent per se worse outcome. Even though scarce, data specific therapy special populations such recipients seem promising. vaccine-induced immunity seems impaired CLD recipients, advocating revised schedule vaccine administration this population.

Inborn errors of human IFN-γ-dependent macrophagic immunity underlie mycobacterial diseases, whereas inborn IFN-α/β-dependent intrinsic viral diseases. Both types IFNs induce the transcription factor IRF1. We describe unrelated children with inherited complete IRF1 deficiency and early-onset, multiple, life-threatening diseases caused by weakly virulent mycobacteria related intramacrophagic pathogens. These have no history severe disease, despite exposure to many viruses, including SARS-CoV-2, which is in individuals impaired IFN-α/β immunity. In leukocytes or fibroblasts stimulated vitro, IRF1-dependent responses IFN-γ are, both quantitatively qualitatively, much stronger than those IFN-α/β. Moreover, IRF1-deficient mononuclear phagocytes do not control pathogens normally when IFN-γ. By contrast, nine almost normal fibroblasts.

Abstract Background We previously reported that impaired type I IFN activity, due to inborn errors of TLR3- and TLR7-dependent interferon (IFN) immunity or autoantibodies against IFN, account for 15–20% cases life-threatening COVID-19 in unvaccinated patients. Therefore, the determinants remain be identified ~ 80% cases. Methods report here a genome-wide rare variant burden association analysis 3269 patients with COVID-19, 1373 SARS-CoV-2-infected individuals without pneumonia. Among 928 tested quarter (234) were positive excluded. Results No gene reached significance. Under recessive model, most significant at-risk variants was TLR7 , an OR 27.68 (95%CI 1.5–528.7, P = 1.1 × 10 −4 ) biochemically loss-of-function (bLOF) variants. replicated enrichment predicted LOF (pLOF) at 13 influenza susceptibility loci involved TLR3-dependent (OR 3.70[95%CI 1.3–8.2], 2.1 ).

We report six patients from four kindreds AR IL-23R deficiency. These are homozygous for one of different loss-of-function IL23R variants.

Since 2003, rare inborn errors of human type I IFN immunity have been discovered, each underlying a few severe viral illnesses. Autoantibodies neutralizing IFNs due to autoimmune regulator (AIRE)-driven T cell tolerance were discovered in 2006, but not initially linked any disease. These two lines clinical investigation converged 2020, with the discovery that inherited and/or deficiencies accounted for approximately 15%-20% cases critical COVID-19 pneumonia unvaccinated individuals.
