    Abstract Clinical immunology and its subset topics are rather newly emerging medical fields in Iran as well as other developing countries. Primary immunodeficiency diagnosis and treatment were revolutionized in the late 1970s; a period of time that coincided with the establishment of the Division of Clinical Immunology and Allergy at the Children's Medical Center, Tehran. Subsequently, the launch of fellowship training programs (in 1988), the development of a national Iranian Primary Immunodeficiency Diseases Registry (in 1999), the inauguration of Research Center for Immunodeficiencies (in 2009), and recently, the national primary immunodeficiency network (in 2016) significantly changed the picture of disease management during the last 40 years. In this review, we seek to elucidate the most important past events, current challenges and future directions regarding the field of primary immunodeficiency.

    Abstract Primary immunodeficiency (PID) or Inborn errors of immunity (IEI) refers to a heterogeneous group of disorders characterized by immune system impairment. Although patients with IEI manifest highly variable symptoms, the most common clinical manifestations are recurrent infections, autoimmunity and malignancies. Some patients present hematological abnormality including thrombocytopenia due to different pathogenic mechanisms. This review focuses on primary and secondary thrombocytopenia as a complication, which can occur in IEI. Based on the International Union of Immunological Societies phenotypic classification for IEI, the several innate and adaptive immunodeficiency disorders can lead to thrombocytopenia. This review, for the first time, describes manifestation, mechanism and therapeutic modalities for thrombocytopenia in different classes of IEI.

    Abstract Predominantly antibody deficiencies (PADs) are a heterogeneous group of primary immunodeficiency disorders (PIDs), consisting of recurrent infections, autoimmunity, inflammation, and other immune complications. In the recent years, several immunological and genetic defects have been recognized in PADs. Currently, 45 distinct PAD disorders with 40 different genetic defects have been identified based on the 2019 IUIS classification. Genetic analysis is helpful for diagnosing PIDs; however, genetic studies are expensive, time-consuming, and unavailable everywhere. Flow cytometry is a highly sensitive tool for evaluating the immune system and diagnosing PADs. In addition to cell populations and subpopulations assay, flow cytometry can measure cell surface, intracellular and intranuclear proteins, biological changes associated with specific immune defects, and certain functional immune abnormalities. These capabilities help in rapid diagnostic and prognostic assessment as well as in evaluating the pathogenesis of PADs. For the first time, this review particularly provides an overview of the application of flow cytometry for diagnosis, immunophenotyping, and determining the pathogenesis of PADs.

    Abstract Background: Common variable immunodeficiency (CVID) is an inborn error of immunity (IEI) characterized by various clinical manifestations such as hypogammaglobulinemia, recurrent infections, and autoimmune diseases. Among different clinical manifestations, skin manifestations have been less reported in these patients.
    Methods: In this study, we investigated the prevalence of dermatologic features in 387 CVID patients. Demographic information, clinical manifestations, laboratory data, and genetic findings were collected from medical records. All data were analyzed based on the presence or absence of skin disorders in CVID patients.
    Results: We observed at least one skin manifestation in about 40% of these patients. Among these complications, skin infection (n = 64, 42.1%) was the most frequent presentation, followed by non-infectious skin lesions (n = 54, 35.6%). Among skin infections, abscesses (n = 34, 22.4%) were the most common complication. Skin infections such as cellulitis, impetigo, measles, and warts were also documented. Eczema (n = 34, 22.4%) was the most common complication in atopic lesions, and vitiligo (n = 13, 8.5%) was prevalent in autoimmune/pigmentation disorders. Among all the patients with genetic mutations, one-quarter had a deleterious mutation in the LRBA gene, relating to the autoimmune and atopic skin lesions.
    Conclusion: This rate of skin disorders in our cohort demonstrating these manifestations could be significant in CVID patients, and they are not rare. Low data of skin complications in CVID patients could be attributed to insufficient attention of physicians and also might alert dermatologists to perform immunological investigations in children with certain skin manifestations.

    Abstract The pathogenesis in the majority of patients with common variable immunodeficiency (CVID), the most common symptomatic primary immunodeficiency, remains unknown. We aimed to compare the minor and major histocompatibility complex (MHC) markers as well as polygenic scores of common genetic variants between patients with monogenic CVID and without known genetic mutation detected. Monogenic patients were identified in a CVID cohort using whole exome sequencing. Computational full-resolution MHC typing and confirmatory PCR amplicon-based high-resolution typing were performed. Exome-wide polygenic scores were developed using significantly different variants and multi-variant Mendelian randomization (MR) analyses were used to test the causality of significant genetic variants on antibody levels and susceptibility to infectious diseases. Among 83 CVID patients (44.5% females), monogenic defects were found in 40 individuals. Evaluation of the remaining CVID patients without known genetic mutation detected showed 13 and 27 significantly associated MHC-class I and II alleles, respectively. The most significant partial haplotype linked with the unsolved CVID was W
