Monogenic lupus with neuroregression in an infant due to rare compound heterozygous variants in C1QA gene: Case based review.

Monogenic lupus is a rare variant of systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) that develops in patients with a single gene disorder. Early complement component deficiencies were the first forms of monogenic lupus to be described and C1Q gene mutations are one of the most common forms. C1QA complement deficiency has been reported to occur usually due to biallelic variants in C1QA gene and compound heterozygous variants in C1QA gene have rarely been reported.

Toward the Development of a Pan-Lyssavirus Vaccine.

In addition to the rabies virus (RABV), 16 more lyssavirus species have been identified worldwide, causing a disease similar to RABV. Non-rabies-related human deaths have been described, but the number of cases is unknown, and the potential of such lyssaviruses causing human disease is unpredictable. The current rabies vaccine does not protect against divergent lyssaviruses such as Mokola virus (MOKV) or Lagos bat virus (LBV).
