Psoriasiform Dermatitis Following Kawasaki Disease: A Case Report and Literature Review.

Kawasaki disease (KD) is an idiopathic acute inflammatory illness that commonly affects children in Northeast Asian countries. In this case report, a psoriasiform eruption appeared on the face and extremities following the onset of KD. A review of previous reports identified 38 cases of psoriasiform eruptions following KD, typically appearing 4 days to 2 months after the onset of KD, unlike other skin manifestations associated with the disease.

Autoinflammatory patients with Golgi-trapped CDC42 exhibit intracellular trafficking defects leading to STING hyperactivation and ER stress.

Most autoinflammatory diseases are caused by mutations in innate immunity genes. Previously, four variants in the RHO GTPase CDC42 were discovered in patients affected by syndromes generally characterized by neonatal-onset of cytopenia and auto-inflammation, including hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis and rash in the most severe form (NOCARH syndrome). However, the mechanisms responsible for these phenotypes remain largely elusive.

Increased response to granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor in peripheral blood cells and transient manifestations mimicking juvenile myelomonocytic leukemia in a male patient with NEMO deficiency caused by a deep intronic pathogenic variant of IKBKG.

X-linked NF-κB essential modulator (NEMO) deficiency is a primary immunodeficiency characterized by combined immunodeficiency and ectodermal dysplasia. Monocytes from the patients demonstrate a severely impaired response to tissue necrosis factor or lipopolysaccharide, whereas hyper-inflammation is found in some patients. Juvenile myelomonocytic leukemia (JMML) is a pediatric malignancy caused by hypersensitivity to granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF) and aberrant RAS signaling activation.

A Non-targeted Proteomics Newborn Screening Platform for Inborn Errors of Immunity.

Purpose: Newborn screening using dried blood spot (DBS) samples for the targeted measurement of metabolites and nucleic acids has made a substantial contribution to public healthcare by facilitating the detection of neonates with genetic disorders. Here, we investigated the applicability of non-targeted quantitative proteomics analysis to newborn screening for inborn errors of immunity (IEIs).

Methods: DBS samples from 40 healthy newborns and eight healthy adults were subjected to non-targeted proteomics analysis using liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry after removal of the hydrophilic fraction.
