Article Synopsis
- Autoimmune lymphoproliferative syndrome (ALPS) is a condition where the body's immune system doesn't work properly, causing problems like too many immune cells and a higher chance of cancer.
- This research focused on understanding a specific gene called CASP10 to see if it affects ALPS, looking at different changes in that gene in some patients.
- The results showed that changes in the CASP10 gene didn't really affect how a process called apoptosis (cell death) works in people with ALPS, suggesting that CASP10 isn't important for causing this condition.
Congenital Sodium Diarrhea (CSD) due to SLC9A3 mutation is a rare cause of neonatal diarrhea explained by dysfunction of the Na+/H+ antiporter 3 in intestine. To date only 10 patients have been described. We report a male patient with typical antenatal symptoms (polyhydramnios and intestinal dilation) and neonatal diarrhea with fecal sodium and bicarbonates loss.
