Monogenic lupus is rare, but its study has contributed immensely to a better understanding of the pathogenesis of systemic lupus erythematosus. The first forms identified were inherited complement deficiencies, which predisposed to lupus due to impaired tolerance, and aberrant clearance of apoptotic bodies and immune complexes. In recent years, several new monogenic disorders with a lupus-like phenotype have been described. These include forms that affect nucleic acid repair, degradation and sensing (TREX1, DNASE1L3), the type I interferon (IFN) pathway (SAMHD1, RNASEH2ABC, ADAR1, IFIH1, ISG15, ACP5, TMEM173) and B cell development checkpoints (PRKCD; RAG2). Pathways informed by these newly described disorders have continued to improve our understanding of systemic lupus erythematosus.

Monogenic lupus is an extremely rare clinical condition in children. Defects in the complement pathway are the most common causes of monogenic lupus. C1qC deficiency is one of the defects in this pathway and is even rarer.

Inborn errors of immunity are monogenic disorders that predispose patients to immune dysregulation, autoimmunity, and infection. Some autoimmune diseases, such as autoimmune cytopenias, systemic lupus erythematosus, and inflammatory bowel diseases, are increasingly recognized as phenotypes of inborn errors of immunity. The objective of this article was to identify red flags or clinical/laboratory markers to suspect inborn errors of immunity in patients with autoimmune cytopenias, systemic lupus erythematosus, and inflammatory bowel diseases through a systematic literature review.

Recent advances in CRISPR-Cas systems have revolutionised the study and treatment of kidney diseases, including acute kidney injury (AKI), chronic kidney disease (CKD), diabetic kidney disease (DKD), lupus nephritis (LN), and polycystic kidney disease (PKD). CRISPR-Cas technology offers precise and versatile tools for genetic modification in monogenic kidney disorders such as PKD and Alport syndrome. Recent advances in CRISPR technology have also shown promise in addressing other kidney diseases like AKI, CKD, and DKD.

The spectrum of known monogenic inborn errors of immunity is growing, with certain disorders underlying a specific and narrow range of infectious diseases. These disorders reveal the core mechanisms by which these infections occur in various settings, including inherited and acquired immunodeficiencies, thereby delineating the essential mechanisms of protective immunity to the corresponding pathogens. These findings also have medical implications, facilitating diagnosis and improving the management of individuals at risk of disease.
