    Abstract TACI promotes T-cell independent antibody responses and plasma cell differentiation and counteracts BAFF driven B-cell activation. Mutations in TNFRSF13B (encoding TACI) are associated with common variable immunodeficiency (CVID) but are also found in 1-2% of the general population. Although not diseases causing, certain TNFRSF13B mutations predispose CVID patients to autoimmunity and lymphoproliferation. Recently, studies of TACI-deficient humans and murine models revealed novel aspects of TACI, especially its crosstalk with the TLR pathways, differential expression of TACI isoforms, and its role in the generation of autoreactive B-cells. Vice versa, these studies are instrumental for a better understanding of TACI deficiency in humans and suggest that gene dosage, mutation type, and additional clinical or laboratory abnormalities influence the relevance of TNFRSF13B variants in individual CVID patients. TACI is embedded in a complex and well-balanced system, which is vulnerable to genetic and possibly also environmental hits.

    Abstract Background: Early detection and monitoring of primary immunodeficiencies (PID) in humans require quantitative determination of immune cells from fresh blood analyzed by flow cytometry. However, epigenetic immune cell quantification allows analysis from fresh, frozen, or dried blood samples. We demonstrate the utility of epigenetic immune cell quantification for patients with PID.
    Methods: Epigenetic quantification of basic lymphocyte subpopulations of 259 samples from PID patients were compared to flow cytometric data. Epigenetic analysis was extended to T-cell subsets (Treg, Th17, Tfh, PD-1+, CCR6+) and memory B-cells and compared between venous EDTA and dried blood.
    Results: A high correlation of >0.9 was observed for basic T- and B-cell subsets. Extended epigenetic analysis showed quantitative trends within PID subgroups, but individually these varied substantially within these groups. Epigenetic analysis of dried blood samples was equivalent to EDTA blood.
    Conclusion: Epigenetic immune cell quantification is suitable for immune cell profiling in PID patients.

    Abstract Purpose: This study assessed whether measuring immunoglobulin G (IgG) from dried blood spots (DBSs) using nephelometry is a suitable remote monitoring method for patients with primary immunodeficiencies (PID).
    Methods: Patients receiving immunoglobulin replacement therapy for PID were included in this non-interventional single-arm study (DRKS-ID: DRKS00020522) conducted in Germany from December 4, 2019, to December 22, 2020. Three blood samples, two capillary DBSs (one mail-transferred and the other direct-transferred to the laboratory), and one intravenous were collected from each patient. IgG levels were determined using nephelometry. IgG levels were summarized descriptively, and significant differences were assessed using Wilcoxon matched-pairs signed-rank tests. Correlation and agreement between IgG levels were assessed using Spearman correlation and Bland-Altman analyses, respectively.
    Results: Among 135 included patients, IgG levels measured from DBS samples were lower than those measured in serum (p < 0.0001). There was no significant difference between IgG levels in direct- and mail-transferred DBS samples. There was a high degree of correlation between IgG levels in serum samples and DBS samples (r = 0.94-0.95). Although there was a bias for higher levels of IgG in serum than in DBS samples, most samples were within the 95% interval of agreement. There was a high degree of correlation between IgG levels measured in direct- and mail-transferred DBS samples (r = 0.96) with no bias based on the shipment process and most samples within the 95% interval of agreement.
    Conclusion: Monitoring IgG levels from DBS samples is a suitable alternative to the standard method, and results are not substantially affected by mailing DBS cards.

    Abstract Introduction: Anti-DFS70 antibodies occur in healthy individuals with various medical conditions. Unlike other anti-nuclear autoantibodies (ANA), they are not associated with systemic autoimmune disease in adult patients. To date, only a few studies have addressed the prevalence and/or clinical relevance of anti-DFS70 autoantibodies in children with and without autoimmune disease.
    Methods: Included in this retrospective cross-sectional mono-centric study were 308 pediatric patients with suspected or known autoimmune conditions who had a positive ANA in indirect immune fluorescence (IIF) screening and who were screened for anti-DFS70 antibodies by extractable nuclear antigen antibodies (ENA) immunoblot. Patients were assigned to four different diagnostic categories according to their diagnosis in the corresponding medical record: (a) absence of autoimmune or rheumatic disease (noARD,
    Results: The prevalence of anti-DFS70 antibodies in the overall cohort was 33.8%. Among children without ARD (46.6%, 54/116), prevalence was significantly higher than among children with ORD (23.7%, 27/115,
    Conclusion: As with adults, the higher prevalence of anti-DFS70 among children without autoimmune disease confirms the mutual exclusion for this autoantibody in the pathogenesis of ARD. Among ANA-positive children, monospecific anti-DFS70 antibodies may help to discriminate between AARD and not-AARD-related conditions.

    Abstract Primary immunodeficiencies (PID) comprise a group of more than 300 mostly monogenetic disorders of the immune system leading to infection susceptibility and a variety of associated clinical and immunological complications. In a majority of these disorders the absence, disproportions or dysfunction of leucocyte subpopulations or of proteins expressed by these cells are observed. These distinctive features are studied by multicolour flow cytometry and the results are used for diagnosis, follow up, classification and therapy monitoring in patients with PIDs. Although a definite diagnosis almost always relies on genetic analysis in PIDs, the results of flow cytometric diagnostics are pivotal in the initial diagnostic assessment of suspected PID patients and often guide the treating physician to a more selective and efficient genetic diagnostic procedure, even in the era of next generation sequencing technology. Furthermore, phenotypic and functional flow cytometry tests allow to validate novel genetic variants and the mapping of complex disturbances of the immune system in individual patients in a personalized manner. In this review we give an overview on phenotypic, functional as well as disease/protein specific flow cytometric assays in the diagnosis of PID and highlight diagnostic strategies and specialties for several selected PIDs by way of example.

    Abstract Aims: Heart failure (HF) is a systemic inflammatory disorder with infections being an important cause of morbidity and mortality. We asked if HF patients have a higher susceptibility to infections compared with the general population and if a subtle secondary immunodeficiency facilitates infectious complications.
    Methods and results: In a cohort of 92 patients with HF with reduced ejection fraction, we analysed recirculating lymphocyte subpopulations, serum immunoglobulin levels, and specific antibody titres against pneumococcal antigens. We quantified susceptibility to infections of the respiratory tract with a validated questionnaire and compared it to the general population. Susceptibility to infections of the respiratory tract was comparable in HF patients and the general population. Hypogammaglobulinaemia was present in 16% of HF patients, but anti-pneumococcal titres showed no evidence of specific secondary antibody deficiency. Relative lymphopaenia in our HF cohort was due to B lymphocytopenia with a relative reduction in naive B-cells and expansion of memory B-cells while CD4+ and CD8+ T-lymphocytes as well as NK-cell counts were comparable between HF and healthy donors. The intake of the angiotensin receptor neprilysin (CD10) inhibitor (ARNI) sacubitril/valsartan was associated with increased B-lymphocyte counts, possibly by an increased output of CD10+ transitional B lymphocytes from the bone marrow.
    Conclusion: Despite a reduction of B lymphocytes in HF and mild hypogammaglobulinaemia, patients showed no evidence of secondary immunodeficiency or increased susceptibility to infections. The relevance of B-cell lymphopenia in HF patients and modulation of B-cell counts under ARNI treatment remains to be investigated.
