Adenosine, a critical molecule regulating cellular function both inside and outside cells, is controlled by two human adenosine deaminases: ADA1 and ADA2. While ADA1 primarily resides in the cytoplasm, ADA2 can be transported to lysosomes within cells or secreted outside the cell. Patients with ADA2 deficiency (DADA2) often suffer from systemic vasculitis due to elevated levels of TNF-α in their blood.

Deficiency of adenosine deaminase 2 (DADA2) is an autosomal recessive autoinflammatory disease characterised by early onset stroke, recurrent fever, and diverse vascular pathologies, caused by loss-of-function homozygous or compound heterozygous variants of ADA2. This research aimed to determine the carrier frequency and expected incidence of DADA2 in China, using massive exome sequencing (ES) data. A total of 50 likely pathogenic/pathogenic variants (LP/PVs) were identified among 69,413 Chinese individuals, including 20 novel and rare variants (<0.

Deficiency of adenosine deaminase 2 (DADA2) is a monogenic disease caused by biallelic mutations in adenosine deaminase 2 (ADA2). The varying phenotypes of the disease often lead to delayed diagnosis or misdiagnosis. We report an 11-year-old boy with DADA2 and provide a preliminary analysis of genotype-phenotype correlation.
