- The study looks at a patient and their relatives who have unusual skin growths caused by human papilloma virus (HPV).
- The patients have a specific genetic change that makes a part of their immune cells (T cells) not work properly, which affects how their body fights off HPV.
- Even though their T cells don’t respond well to HPV, the patients can still make antibodies against the viruses, showing that they can fight infections differently than expected.
Autosomal dominant hyper-IgE syndrome (AD-HIES) is typically caused by dominant-negative (DN) STAT3 mutations. Patients suffer from cold staphylococcal lesions and mucocutaneous candidiasis, severe allergy, and skeletal abnormalities. We report 12 patients from 8 unrelated kindreds with AD-HIES due to DN IL6ST mutations.
