    Abstract Purpose of review: T-cell memory is a complex process not well understood involving specific steps, pathways and different T-cell subpopulations. Inborn errors of immunity (IEIs) represent unique models to decipher some of these requirements in humans. More than 500 different IEIs have been reported to date, and recently a subgroup of monogenic disorders characterized by memory T-cell defects has emerged, providing novel insights into the pathways of T-cell memory generation and maintenance, although this new knowledge is mostly restricted to peripheral blood T-cell memory populations.
    Recent findings: This review draws up an inventory of the main and recent IEIs associated with T-cell memory defects and their mice models, with a particular focus on the nuclear factor kappa B (NF-κB) signalling pathway, including the scaffold protein capping protein regulator and myosin 1 linker 2 (CARMIL2) and the T-cell co-stimulatory molecules CD28 and OX-40. Besides NF-κB, IKZF1 (IKAROS), a key transcription factor of haematopoiesis and STAT3-dependent interleukin-6 signals involving the transcription factor ZNF341 also appear to be important for the generation of T cell memory. Somatic reversion mosaicism in memory T cells is documented for several gene defects supporting the critical role of these factors in the development of memory T cells with a potential clinical benefit.
    Summary: Systematic examination of T-cell memory subsets could be helpful in the diagnosis of IEIs.

    Abstract In the past few years, the spectrum of monogenic systemic auto-inflammatory diseases (MSAID) has widely expanded beyond the typical recurrent fever. Immuno-haematological features, as cytopenias, hypogammaglobulinemia, hypereosinophilia, lymphoproliferation and immunodeficiency, have been described in association of several MSAID. The objective of this review was to describe these particular MSAID. MSAID must be suspected in front of immuno-haematological features associated with non-infectious recurrent fever, chronic systemic inflammation, inflammatory cutaneous manifestations, arthritis or inflammatory bowel disease. Genes and cellular mechanisms involved are various but some of them are of special interest. Defects in actine regulation pathway are notably associated with cytopenia and immune deficiency. Because of their frequency, ADA2 deficiency and Vacuoles, E1-Enzyme, X-linked, auto-inflammatory, Somatic (VEXAS) syndrome deserve to be noticed. ADA2 deficiency results in polyarteritis nodosa-like presentation with a wide panel of manifestations including cytopenia(s), lymphoproliferation and immune deficiency. Neutrophilic dermatosis or chondritis associated with macrocytic anaemia or myelodysplasia should lead to screen for VEXAS. Of note, most of MSAID are associated with inflammatory anaemia. We proposed here a clinical and pragmatic approach of MSAID associated with immuno-haematological features.

    Abstract Mutations in NFkB pathway genes can cause inborn errors of immunity (IEI), with NFKB1 haploinsufficiency being a significant etiology for common variable immunodeficiency (CVID). Indeed, mutations in NFKB1 are found in 4 to 5% of in European and United States CVID cohorts, respectively; CVID representing almost ¼ of IEI patients in European countries registries. This case study presents a 49-year-old patient with respiratory infections, chronic diarrhea, immune thrombocytopenia, hypogammaglobulinemia, and secondary lymphoma. Comprehensive genetic analysis, including high-throughput sequencing of 300 IEI-related genes and copy number variation analysis, identified a critical 2.6-kb deletion spanning the first untranslated exon and its upstream region. The region's importance was confirmed through genetic markers indicative of enhancers and promoters. The deletion was also found in the patient's brother, who displayed similar but milder symptoms. Functional analysis supported haploinsufficiency with reduced mRNA and protein expression in both patients. This case underscores the significance of copy number variation (CNV) analysis and targeting noncoding exons within custom gene panels, emphasizing the broader genomic approaches needed in medical genetics.

    Title translation Immunity and defenses against infection.
    Abstract The roles of the immune system are to protect the host from the various pathogenic agents and to ensure the tolerance to self. It brings into play two categories of processes which appeared successively during the evolution, innate immunity and adaptive immunity. The actors of these two processes will be recruited in a sequential way in the event of infection by a micro-organism.

    Title translation How to diagnose a hereditary immunodeficiency?.
    Abstract Efficient early identification of primary immunodeficiency is important for the patient prognosis and treatment. The first investigations need to be performed in case of severe, recurrent and/or unusual infections. Simple investigations like blood cell count, serum immunoglobulins level and postvaccination or post-infection serologies allow to direct the diagnosis. The medical history, the clinical examination and these laboratory investigations permit to realize more specific investigations according to the type of primary immunodeficiency suspected.

    Abstract Telomeres are nucleoprotein structures that protect the chromosome ends from degradation and fusion. Telomerase is a ribonucleoprotein complex essential to maintain the length of telomeres. Germline defects that lead to short and/or dysfunctional telomeres cause telomere biology disorders (TBDs), a group of rare and heterogeneous Mendelian diseases including pulmonary fibrosis, dyskeratosis congenita, and Høyeraal-Hreidarsson syndrome. TPP1, a telomeric factor encoded by the gene ACD, recruits telomerase at telomere and stimulates its activity via its TEL-patch domain that directly interacts with TERT, the catalytic subunit of telomerase. TBDs due to TPP1 deficiency have been reported only in 11 individuals. We here report four unrelated individuals with a wide spectrum of TBD manifestations carrying either heterozygous or homozygous ACD variants consisting in the recurrent and previously described in-frame deletion of K170 (K170∆) and three novel missense mutations G179D, L184R, and E215V. Structural and functional analyses demonstrated that the four variants affect the TEL-patch domain of TPP1 and impair telomerase activity. In addition, we identified in the ACD gene several motifs associated with small deletion hotspots that could explain the recurrence of the K170∆ mutation. Finally, we detected in a subset of blood cells from one patient, a somatic TERT promoter-activating mutation that likely provides a selective advantage over non-modified cells, a phenomenon known as indirect somatic genetic rescue. Together, our results broaden the genetic and clinical spectrum of TPP1 deficiency and specify new residues in the TEL-patch domain that are crucial for length maintenance and stability of human telomeres in vivo.

    Abstract Autoimmune lymphoproliferative syndrome (ALPS) is a primary disorder of lymphocyte homeostasis, leading to chronic lymphoproliferation, autoimmune cytopenia, and increased risk of lymphoma. The genetic landscape of ALPS includes mutations in FAS, FASLG, and FADD, all associated with apoptosis deficiency, while the role of CASP10 defect in the disease remains debated. In this study, we aimed to assess the impact of CASP10 variants on ALPS pathogenesis. We benefit from thousands of genetic analysis datasets performed in our Institute's genetic platform to identify individuals carrying CASP10 variants previously suspected to be involved in ALPS outcome: p.C401LfsX15, p.V410I and p.Y446C, both at heterozygous and homozygous state. Clinical and laboratory features of the six included subjects were variable but not consistent with ALPS. Two individuals were healthy. Comprehensive analyses of CASP10 protein expression and FAS-mediated apoptosis were conducted and compared to healthy controls and ALPS patients with FAS mutations. Missense CASP10 variants (p.V410I and p.Y446C), which are common in the general population, did not disrupt CASP10 expression, nor FAS-mediated apoptosis. In contrast, homozygous p.C401LfsX15 CASP10 variant lead to a complete abolished CASP10 expression but had no impact on FAS-mediated apoptosis function. At heterozygous state, this p.C401LfsX15 variant lead to a reduced CASP10 protein levels but remained associated with a normal FAS-mediated apoptosis function. These findings demonstrate that CASPASE 10 is dispensable for FAS-mediated apoptosis. In consequences, CASP10 defect unlikely contribute to ALPS pathogenesis, since they did not result in an impairment of FAS-mediated apoptosis nor in clinical features of ALPS in human. Moreover, the absence of FAS expression up-regulation in subjects with CASP10 variants rule out any compensatory mechanisms possibly involved in the normal apoptosis function observed. In conclusion, this study challenges the notion that CASP10 variants contribute to the development of ALPS.
