Human recombination-activating gene (RAG) deficiency can manifest with distinct clinical and immunological phenotypes. By applying a multiomics approach to a large group of -mutated patients, we aimed at characterizing the immunopathology associated with each phenotype. Although defective T and B cell development is common to all phenotypes, patients with hypomorphic variants can generate T and B cells with signatures of immune dysregulation and produce autoantibodies to a broad range of self-antigens, including type I interferons.

Objective: Alzheimer's disease (AD) and dementia with Lewy bodies (DLB) are common neurodegenerative diseases with distinct but overlapping pathogenic mechanisms. The clinical similarities between these diseases often result in high misdiagnosis rates, leading to serious consequences. Peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) are easy to collect and can accurately reflect the immune characteristics of both DLB and AD.

Cutaneous T-cell lymphomas (CTCLs) characterized by infiltration of the skin of T-cell lymphocytes represent an uncommon and rare subset of extranodal non-Hodgkin lymphomas. Primary CTCL, not otherwise specified, is among the most important subtypes of CTCLs characterized by rapid cutaneous dissemination and systemic involvement. Herein, we present a case of primary CTCL, not otherwise specified, diagnosed via 18F-FDG PET/CT after initial misdiagnosis of cutaneous leishmaniasis.

In dipeptidyl-peptidase-like protein 6 (DPPX) antibody-associated encephalitis, DPPX antibodies from serum and CSF target the extracellular subunit of the voltage-gated potassium channel 4.2. This targeting leads to a characteristic clinical triad comprising gastrointestinal symptoms (predominantly diarrhea), cognitive-psychiatric dysfunction, and manifestations of CNS hyperexcitability, with hyperekplexia being a more specific feature.
