    Abstract ERBIN and phosphoglucomutase 3 (PGM3) mutations both lead to rare primary atopic disorders characterized by allergic disease and connective tissue abnormalities, though each disorder has its own rather unique pattern of multisystem presentations. Pathway studies show how ERBIN mutations allow for enhanced TGFb signaling, and prevent STAT3 from negative-regulating TGFb signaling. This likely explains many elements of clinical overlap between disorders of STAT3 and TGFb signaling. The excessive TGFb signaling leading to increased IL-4 receptor expression also provides the rationale for precision-based therapy blocking the IL-4 receptor to treat the atopic disease. The mechanism by which PGM3 deficiency leads to atopic phenotypes is not well understood, nor is the broad variability in disease penetrance and expressivity, though preliminary studies suggest an overlap with IL-6 receptor signaling defects.

    Abstract Primary atopic disorders describes a series of monogenic diseases that have allergy- or atopic effector-related symptoms as a substantial feature. The underlying pathogenic genetic lesions help illustrate fundamental pathways in atopy, opening up diagnostic and therapeutic options for further study in those patients, but ultimately for common allergic diseases as well. Key pathways affected in these disorders include T cell receptor and B cell receptor signaling, cytokine signaling, skin barrier function, and mast cell function, as well as pathways that have not yet been elucidated. While comorbidities such as classically syndromic presentation or immune deficiency are often present, in some cases allergy alone is the presenting symptom, suggesting that commonly encountered allergic diseases exist on a spectrum of monogenic and complex genetic etiologies that are impacted by environmental risk factors.

    Abstract Dominant negative mutations in STAT3, a critical signaling molecule and transcription factor in multiple organ systems, lead to a rare monogenic disease called the STAT3 loss-of-function, autosomal dominant hyper-IgE syndrome (STAT3LOF AD-HIES). The original name for this syndrome, Job's syndrome, was derived from the observation that patients had a propensity to develop skin boils, reminiscent of the affliction cast upon the biblical Job. Many fascinating observations have been made regarding the pathogenesis of the disease and the role STAT3 plays in human health and disease. Additionally, quite a few phenotypic descriptions from the Book of Job are similar to those seen in patients with STAT3LOF AD-HIES, beyond just the boils. This complex multisystem genetic disorder is a challenge clinically and scientifically, but it also brings into question how we approach genetic syndromes beyond just the technical aspects of research and treatment.

    Abstract CARD11 encodes a large scaffold protein responsible for integrating antigen-receptor engagement with downstream signaling to NF-kB and other outputs in lymphocytes. Over the past 10 years, several human-inborn errors of immunity have been linked to pathogenic CARD11 mutations. Most recently, severe atopic patients were discovered that carried heterozygous dominant-negative CARD11 mutations. Here, we review the mechanistic connections between attenuated CARD11 signaling, elevated IgE, and atopy, comparing and contrasting key insights from both human patients and murine models. Continued investigation of abnormal CARD11 signaling in both contexts should inform novel therapeutic strategies to combat allergic pathogenesis.

    Abstract Purpose of review: Over the last 13 years, the genetic etiologies have been determined for multiple conditions causing elevated serum IgE, infection susceptibilities, and variable other features. In this review, we discuss the clinical presentation, laboratory features, and genetics of these diseases caused by mutations in STAT3, DOCK8, PGM3, IL6ST, ZNF341, IL6R, IL6ST, CARD11, and CARD14, with particular focus given to STAT3LOF and DOCK8 deficiency.
    Recent findings: Defining the phenotype of each of these syndromes with high IgE and infection susceptibility shows that some have a pronounced connective tissue phenotype such as STAT3LOF and IL6ST deficiency, some have worse viral susceptibility such as DOCK8 deficiency and heterozygous LOF CARD11, and some have more severe allergy and eczema such as LOF CARD14. Studying these distinct but overlapping monogenic diseases will allow a better understanding of more common disease processes such as allergy, eczema, infection susceptibility, scoliosis, and aneurysm.

    Abstract PLCG2 associated antibody deficiency and immune dysregulation (PLAID) is a complex dominantly inherited disease characterized almost universally by cold urticaria, and variably by recurrent bacterial infection, autoimmunty and skin granuloma formation. Several striking phenotypes can emerge from this disease, and the pathophysiology leads to a complex mix of loss and gain of function in cellular signaling. This review discusses the key phenotypic characteristics and pathophysiologic observations seen in PLAID, and contrasts PLAID to several related disorders in order to best contextualize this fascinating disease.

    Abstract Environmental factors modify disease presentation and severity in allergic disorders. Primary atopic disorders (PADs) are a heterogenous group of single gene disorders that lead to significant atopic and allergic disease manifestations. However, a number of these monogenic diseases have variable penetrance suggesting that gene-gene and/or gene-environment interactions could modulate the clinical phenotype. Environmental factors such as diet, the microbiome at the epithelial-environment interface, the presence and/or extent of infection, and psychologic stress can alter disease phenotypic expression of allergic diseases, and PADs provide discrete contexts in which to understand these influences. We outline how gene-environment interactions likely contribute to a variable penetrance and expressivity in PADs. Dietary modifications of both macronutrients and/or micronutrients alter T-cell metabolism and may influence effector T-cell function. The mucosal microbiome may affect local inflammation and may remotely influence regulatory elements, while psychologic stress can affect mast cell and other allergic effector cell function. Understanding gene-environment interactions in PADs can hopefully provide a foundation for interrogating gene-environment interactions to common allergic disorders, and also present opportunities for personalized interventions based on the altered pathways and environmental influences in affected individuals.
