    DOCK8 regulates fitness and function of regulatory T cells through modulation of IL-2 signaling Akhilesh K. Singh, … , Troy R. Torgerson, Mohamed Oukka JCI Insight. 2017;2(19):e94275. https://doi.org/10.1172/jci.insight.94275. Research Article Immunology Foxp3+ Tregs possess potent immunosuppressive activity, which is critical for maintaining immune homeostasis and self- tolerance. Defects in Treg development or function result in inadvertent immune activation and autoimmunity. Despite recent advances in Treg biology, we still do not completely understand the molecular and cellular mechanisms governing the development and suppressive function of these cells. Here, we have demonstrated an essential role of the dedicator of cytokinesis 8 (DOCK8), guanine nucleotide exchange factors required for cytoskeleton rearrangement, cell migration, and immune cell survival in controlling Treg fitness and their function. Treg-specific DOCK8 deletion led to spontaneous multiorgan inflammation in mice due to uncontrolled T cell activation and production of proinflammatory cytokines. In addition, we show that DOCK8-deficient Tregs are defective in competitive fitness and in vivo suppressive function. Furthermore, DOCK8 controls IL-2 signaling, crucial for maintenance and competitive fitness of Tregs, via a STAT5- dependent manner. Our study provides potentially novel insights into the essential function of DOCK8 in Tregs and immune regulation, and it explains the autoimmune manifestations associated with DOCK8 deficiency.

Although initially described as two forms, with autosomal dominant (AD) and autosomal recessive (AR) inheritance, we now recognize that these are two distinct diseases caused by different genetic causes, with the two most common being from harmful mutations in STAT3 causing loss of function (STAT3-LOF) and DOCK8. These diseases share overlapping clinical and laboratory features; however, they also exhibit distinct clinical symptoms, disease courses, and outcomes. In addition, several other genetic variants have since been described to present with similar symptoms. History Clinical Presentation STAT3-LOF was described first as Job Syndrome STAT3 Deficiency in 1966 in two girls with many episodes of STAT3 Deficiency, is associated with heterozygous pneumonia, eczema-like rashes, and recurrent skin loss of function mutations in the transcription factor boils. These boils were remarkable for their lack STAT3. This is the more common form of HIES in of surrounding warmth, redness or tenderness, the U.S.

  • The Hyperimmunoglobulin E Syndrome
    Szczawinska-Poplonyk et al. Orphanet Journal of Rare Diseases 2011, 6:76 http://www.ojrd.com/content/6/1/76 REVIEW Open Access The hyperimmunoglobulin E syndrome - clinical manifestation diversity in primary immune deficiency Aleksandra Szczawinska-Poplonyk1*, Zdzislawa Kycler1, Barbara Pietrucha2, Edyta Heropolitanska-Pliszka2, Anna Breborowicz1 and Karolina Gerreth3 Abstract The hyper-IgE syndromes are rare, complex primary immunodeficiencies characterized by clinical manifestation diversity, by particular susceptibility to staphylococcal and mycotic infections as well as by a heterogeneous genetic origin. Two distinct entities - the classical hyper-IgE syndrome which is inherited in an autosomal dominant pattern and the autosomal recessive hyper-IgE syndrome have been recognized. The autosomal dominant hyper- IgE syndrome is associated with a cluster of facial, dental, skeletal, and connective tissue abnormalities which are not observable in the recessive type. In the majority of affected patients with autosomal dominant hyper-IgE syndrome a mutation in the signal transducer and the activator of the transcription 3 gene has been identified, leading to an impaired Th17 cells differentiation and to a downregulation of an antimicrobial response. A mutation in the dedicator of the cytokinesis 8 gene has been identified as the cause of many cases with autosomal recessive hyper-IgE syndrome and, in one patient, a mutation in tyrosine kinase 2 gene has been demonstrated. In this paper, the authors provide a review of the clinical manifestations in the hyper-IgE syndromes with particular emphasis on the diversity of their phenotypic expression and present current diagnostic guidelines for these diseases. Introduction its inclusion in the group of primary immunodeficiency The hyper-IgE syndrome (HIES) was first described in diseases by Hill et al [4], and the term “Hyper-IgE 1966 by Davis, Wedgwood and Schaller [1]; the authors Recurrent Infection Syndrome” (HIERIS) as proposed by perceived the similarity of severe dermatitis associated Buckley was also accepted [5].

  • Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplant Effectively Rescues Lymphocyte Differentiation and Function in DOCK8-Deficient Patients
    Hematopoietic stem cell transplant effectively rescues lymphocyte differentiation and function in DOCK8-deficient patients Bethany A. Pillay, … , Stuart G. Tangye, Cindy S. Ma JCI Insight. 2019;4(11):e127527. https://doi.org/10.1172/jci.insight.127527. Research Article Immunology Infectious disease Biallelic inactivating mutations in DOCK8 cause a combined immunodeficiency characterized by severe pathogen infections, eczema, allergies, malignancy, and impaired humoral responses. These clinical features result from functional defects in most lymphocyte lineages. Thus, DOCK8 plays a key role in immune cell function. Hematopoietic stem cell transplant (HSCT) is curative for DOCK8 deficiency. While previous reports have described clinical outcomes for DOCK8 deficiency following HSCT, the effect on lymphocyte reconstitution and function has not been investigated. Our study determined whether defects in lymphocyte differentiation and function in DOCK8-deficient patients were restored following HSCT. DOCK8-deficient T and B lymphocytes exhibited aberrant activation and effector function in vivo and in vitro. Frequencies of αβ T and MAIT cells were reduced, while γδT cells were increased in DOCK8-deficient patients. HSCT improved abnormal lymphocyte function in DOCK8-deficient patients. Elevated total and allergen-specific IgE in DOCK8- deficient patients decreased over time following HSCT. Our results document the extensive catalog of cellular defects in DOCK8-deficient patients and the efficacy of HSCT in correcting these defects, concurrent with improvements in clinical phenotypes. Overall, our findings reveal mechanisms at a functional cellular level for improvements in clinical features of DOCK8 deficiency after HSCT, identify biomarkers that correlate with improved clinical outcomes, and inform the general dynamics of immune reconstitution in patients with monogenic immune disorders following HSCT.

  • Hyper Ige Syndrome
    Hyper IgE Syndrome Chapter 17 Hyper IgE Syndrome Hyper IgE Syndrome (HIES) is a rare primary immunodeficiency disease characterized by eczema, recurrent staphylococcal skin abscesses, recurrent lung infections, eosinophilia (a high number of eosinophils in the blood) and high serum levels of IgE. Most cases of HIES are sporadic, but some familial cases of HIES have been reported, with either an autosomal dominant (AD) or autosomal recessive (AR) mode of inheritance. Definition of Hyper IgE Syndrome HIES is a rare primary immunodeficiency characterized (AR, or type 2) form. These two forms share overlapping by recurrent eczema, skin abscesses, lung infections, clinical and laboratory features including eczema, eosinophilia and high serum levels of IgE. Two form of recurrent infections, skin abscesses, high IgE level and HIES have been described, including an autosomal increased eosinophil number. However, they also exhibit dominant (AD, or type 1) and an autosomal recessive distinct clinical manifestations, courses and outcomes. History of Hyper IgE Syndrome HIES was described first as ‘‘Job syndrome’’ by Davis this report, elevated IgE was found in the two girls from and colleagues in 1966, in two girls with many episodes the initial report, showing that Job syndrome and of pneumonia, eczema-like rashes and recurrent skin Buckley syndrome represented the same condition. In boils remarkable for their lack of surrounding warmth, 2007, a heterozygous mutation in the gene encoding redness or tenderness (so-called “cold abscesses”). In the transcription factor STAT3 was found to underlie 1972, the syndrome was refined and clarified by most cases of AD (type 1)-HIES. In 2009 mutations and Buckley and colleagues who noted similar infectious deletions in the DOCK8 gene were found to underlie the problems in two boys who also had distinctive facial majority of cases with AR (type 2)-HIES.
