Deficiency of Adenosine Deaminase 2 (DADA2) patients presenting with primary immunodeficiency are at risk of uncontrolled EBV infection and secondary malignancies including EBV-related lymphoproliferative disorders (LPD). This paper describes the first case of EBV related diffuse large B-cell lymphoma in a patient with DADA2 and uncontrolled EBV infection. Consideration should be given to monitoring for EBV viraemia and to preventative EBV specific therapy in DADA2 and patients with at risk primary immunodeficiencies. A type I interferon (IFN) gene signature is associated with DADA2 though its association with immune dysregulation is unclear.

Introduction: Nasopharyngeal cancer (NPC) is a multifaceted disease characterized by genetic and epigenetic modifications. While Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) infection is a known risk factor, recent studies highlight the significant role of DNA methylation in NPC pathogenesis. Aberrant methylation, particularly at CpG sites, can silence tumour suppressor genes, promoting uncontrolled cell growth.

Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) and Kaposi's sarcoma-associated herpesvirus (KSHV), which are the only members of the gamma(γ) herpesviruses, are oncogenic viruses that significantly contribute to the development of various human cancers, such as Burkitt's lymphoma, nasopharyngeal carcinoma, Hodgkin's lymphoma, Kaposi's sarcoma, and primary effusion lymphoma. Oncogenesis triggered by γ-herpesviruses involves complex interactions between viral genetics, host cellular mechanisms, and immune evasion strategies. At the genetic level, crucial viral oncogenes participate in the disruption of cell signaling, leading to uncontrolled proliferation and inhibition of apoptosis.

T-cell lymphomas represent non-Hodgkin lymphomas distinguished by the uncontrolled proliferation of malignant T lymphocytes. Classifying these neoplasms and the ongoing investigation of their underlying biological mechanisms remains challenging. Significant subtypes encompass peripheral T-cell lymphomas, anaplastic large-cell lymphomas, cutaneous T-cell lymphomas, and adult T-cell leukemia/lymphoma.

Article Synopsis
- Hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis (HLH) is an immune disorder causing severe inflammation, categorized into primary (familial) and secondary (acquired) types; secondary HLH can occur due to various triggers, including infections like Epstein-Barr virus (EBV).
- A 12-year-old girl with childhood-onset systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) developed fever, seizures, and altered mental status, raising concerns for neuropsychiatric SLE or infections, leading to extensive testing and treatment.
- Diagnosis of HLH was confirmed through blood tests showing abnormal cell counts and bone marrow analysis revealing hemophagocytic activity, along with CSF analysis that identified EBV as the
Mechanistic Understanding of EBV+Lymphoproliferative Disease Development After Transplantation.
Transplantation

Posttransplant lymphoproliferative disorders (PTLDs) are among the most common malignant complications after transplantation, leading to a drastic reduction in patient survival rates. The majority of PTLDs are tightly linked to Epstein-Barr virus (EBV+PTLDs) and are the result of an uncontrolled proliferation of EBV-infected cells. However, although EBV infections are a common finding in transplant recipients, most patients with high EBV loads will never develop EBV+PTLD.
